Mejora del flujo de trabajo protésico con construcciones prototipo en el tratamiento de implantes dentales

This case report presents the concept of fabricating a 3D-printed prototype by outlining the benefits of these preliminary prosthetic constructions during implant treatment in a totally edentulous arch. Our study indicates that the final prosthetic construction anchored over dental implants demonstrates enhanced prosthetic features. Despite the advancements in digital dentistry, which offer significant diagnostic and planning capabilities, the fabrication of the final prosthetic construction remains a challenge even for specialists. This clinical case aims to present an in-house method for producing a 3D-printed prototype of the final prosthetic restoration, thereby minimizing clinical and laboratory errors such as incorrect selection of tooth form, size, and shade, improper occlusal contacts and articulation, suboptimal emergence profiles, and inadequate bridge design.
