The Microscopic and Digital One-Day-Dentistry Concept: A Minimally Invasive Chairside Technique.

Area of Science:

• Dentistry
• Prosthodontics
• Digital Dentistry

Background:

• Increasing demand for efficient, precise, patient-centered prosthodontic care.
• Need for streamlined digital workflows and advanced tools like dental operative microscopes.

Purpose of the Study:

• To present the microscopic and digital one-day-dentistry technique for single-unit prosthetic restorations.
• To maximize precision and consistency in restorative processes from preparation to delivery.
• To eliminate the need for provisional restorations in single-day treatments.

Main Methods:

• Integration of a dental operative microscope into a chairside digital workflow.
• Collaboration between clinicians and in-house technicians for high-quality preparation and marginal adaptation.
• Streamlined process from tooth preparation to final restoration delivery within a single day.

Main Results:

• Achieved high-quality preparation and excellent marginal adaptation.
• Eliminated multiple appointments and the need for provisionalization.
• Preserved occlusion and marginal fit, reducing risks of discrepancies.
• Enabled highly predictable, time-efficient, same-day single-tooth restorations with maximum accuracy.

Conclusions:

• The microscopic and digital one-day-dentistry technique offers a precise, efficient, and patient-centered approach for single-unit restorations.
• This contemporary method enhances both short-term and long-term restoration success through improved accuracy and collaboration.
• The workflow leads to predictable, high-quality, same-day restorations, increasing patient satisfaction.
