Innovative CAD/CAM treatment approaches for implant-supported fixed restorations

Contents

• Patient presentation
• Preparing the implant bed, implant placement, checking implant positions
• Securing the insertion posts to the index for fabrication of the cast
• Suturing details
• Delivery of the adapted long-term provisional
• Fabricating the cast and the gingival mask, transferring the pontic emergence profiles to the gingival mask, mask adaptation
• The master cast under the strip scanner with scan bodies on the laboratory analogs
• CAD crown design and virtual anatomic shaping
• CAM fabrication of a zirconia abutment
• Adhesively connecting the zirconia abutment to the titanium base
• Reentry, split-thickness flap, vestibuloplasty, connecting the zirconia abutments to the implants
• Mucosal graft to restore a soft-tissue defect
• Intraoral impression of the abutments
• Fabricating the definitive lithium disilicate crowns: virtual crown design; CAM milling, characterization of the crowns
• Delivery, final adjustments, presentation of the treatment outcome
