Triple digital guides for implant‐supported restorations with alveoloplasty procedure in the esthetic zone

Abstract

ObjectiveThe principal aim of this report is to address the challenge of integrating prosthetic crowns with natural dentition in the esthetic zone. It highlights the utilization of a prosthetically driven treatment plan, designed to ensure predictable esthetic outcomes.Clinical ConsiderationsThis report details a technique that utilizes three digital guides, all derived from a 3‐dimensional digital smile design. The integration of a restoration guide, an implant drilling guide, and an alveoloplasty guide is described. These tools collectively facilitate the precise execution of both surgical and prosthetic procedures, enhancing treatment accuracy and esthetic integration.ConclusionsThis technique considers the esthetic prosthetic crowns, implant positions, and alveoloplasty collectively. It enhances the predictability of esthetic outcomes in oral implantology and potentially provides an integrated prosthetically driven workflow in cosmetic dental treatments.Clinical SignificanceThe application of multiple digital guides derived from the same prosthetically driven treatment significantly enhances the predictability of esthetic outcomes in oral implantology.
