Abstract

Dental implantology is a traditional approach offered to fully or partially edentulous patients. Successful placing of implants needs specialized skill sets and expertise in order to achieve their viability. 3-D printing along with digital technology have made significant improvements to rate of success and have transformed work process and practices in standards of care in dental implants. Advanced-thinking clinicians and the dental laboratories have harnessed benefits of the digital technology for ensuring best outcomes for the patients as well as providing versatility and savings in time and cost. This paper discusses workflows by which a summarized surgical guide can be obtained.
