Immediate Implant Placement, Immediate Load With Same-Day Fully Digital Fabrication of a Screw-Retained Provisional...

This article describes the use of technology capable of converting a failed dentition to a full-arch screw-retained implant-supported provisional restoration in one day using a fully digital restorative protocol. With this expedited digital treatment, the transition to a restored dentition is completed without the need for any physical impressions. Predicated on facially driven virtual smile designs, sophisticated engineering designs, complex algorithms, artificial intelligence, and novel laboratory and clinical workflows, the protocol allows for streamlined, same-day digital delivery of an in-house 3D-printed provisional prosthesis after implant placement surgery.
