Abstract:
A straightforward technique for a complete mouth rehabilitation under complete isolation using the resin stamp technique and planned and executed using a digital workflow is described. A preoperative scan was recorded under dental dam isolation, ensuring a controlled environment identical to that of the actual procedure and using the same isolation procedures. A virtual diagnostic waxing was designed, followed by the manufacturing of printed clear index guides relined with transparent silicone. For the restorative steps, packable and flowable composite resins were inserted into the relined guide and light polymerized. This technique enabled dental dam isolation, reduced silicone index deformation, and prevented adhesion issues between the printed indices and composite resin material.
