    Area of Science:

    • Digital dentistry
    • Prosthodontic treatment
    • Implantology

    Background:

    • Digital protocols are increasingly influencing prosthodontic treatment concepts.
    • Implant-supported single-unit and short-span reconstructions benefit significantly from digital trends.
    • Conventional manufacturing techniques for posterior implant restorations are being replaced by digital workflows.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the benefits of digital workflows in prosthodontics.
    • To emphasize the importance of correct indication and application of digital technologies.
    • To discuss the potential of digitization to transform the dental profession.

    Main Methods:

    • Intraoral scanning for data acquisition.
    • Virtual design and production of monolithic implant crowns and prefabricated titanium abutments.
    • Subtractive (milling, laser ablation) and additive (3D printing, selective laser melting) manufacturing technologies.

    Main Results:

    • Digital workflows eliminate the need for a physical master cast.
    • Rapid prototyping allows for quick and inexpensive remake of reconstructions.
    • Digital technology enables precise calculation and individualization of supra-implant soft-tissue architecture.

    Conclusions:

    • Digital workflows offer reduced production costs and improved time efficiency.
    • Successful implementation requires teamwork and correct indication of technologies.
    • Digitization has the potential to modernize treatment concepts and increase patient satisfaction.
