  • Title: 3D Printing Technologies and Protocols to Enhance the Dental Workflow.
    Author: Moshman AT.
    Journal: Compend Contin Educ Dent; 2021 May; 42(5):e1-e4. PubMed ID: 33980016.
    Abstract:
    The implementation of digital technologies for interdisciplinary treatment planning and fabrication of monolithic ceramic restorations is a standard protocol in modern dentistry. Teeth with severe discoloration, soft-tissue defects, and multiple diastemas are common challenges clinicians face when performing restorative dentistry. The objective of this article is to describe to clinicians and dental technicians a novel approach regarding a digital workflow that combines the use of different CAD/CAM software programs to successfully address the challenge of achieving esthetic success in difficult cases. The "ReShape" concept for morphological and esthetic enhancement of monolithic ceramic restorations presents a unique digital workflow that facilitates production of restorations with natural morphology and surface texture, less need for post-milling characterizations, and excellent esthetic results. This approach is aimed at improving the quality of monolithic ceramic restorations fabricated via CAD/CAM technology by combining the acquisition software of an intraoral scanner with a design software.
