Title: Digital Implant Planning and Surgical Guides: Tools for Clinical Success. Author: Conejo J, Atria PJ, Schweitzer D, Blatz MB. Journal: Compend Contin Educ Dent; 2021; 42(7):400-401. PubMed ID: 34297595. Abstract: Digital technologies have fundamentally changed treatment planning, surgical placement, and restoration of dental implants, improving clinical success while saving valuable chairtime. Intraoral scanners (IOS), cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), 3D implant planning software, and CAD/CAM systems that fabricate surgical guides and provisional and definitive restorations have become standard tools for precise implant placement and ideal restoration design, which are essential for optimal and long-term esthetic and functional success. This article summarizes clinical guidelines for integration of digital technologies in implant dentistry.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
