Single implant — upper premolar replacement using digital workflow
3Shape Implant Studio provides accurate and optimized positioning and visualization tools to create a virtual wax-up set for the 3D placement of the implant.
Treatment provider: Dr. Nelson Silva
Solutions used: 3Shape TRIOS intraoral scanner, 3Shape Implant Studio + 3Shape Dental System software
Dr. Silva uses 3Shape Implant Studio and 3Shape Dental System for predictably positioning the implant and restoration and for manufacture of the prosthesis.
PREVIEW OF THE CASE
Prosthetic driven implant planning. Planning the prosthetic initially, guides both the planning of the implant position and subsequent design of the surgical guide.
Surgical guide design. The surgical guide is designed and sent (STL format) to be prototyped, milled or 3D printed.
Checking fit and function prior to production. The crown is virtually placement and digitally adjusted for proximal and occlusal contacts before milling.
Restoration seated. The similarity of restored crown compared to the second premolar, illustrates the software’s capacity to mimic anatomical details.
