Digital Fabrication of Single Tooth Implant Crowns
About This Event
This CE webinar provides an overview to the digital workflow for fabricating single tooth implant crowns. Participants will learn the fundamentals of intraoral scanning for teeth, gingiva, and scan posts, as well as the advantages of full arch vs quadrant scans. The CE webinar covers key considerations such as Ti-base diameter and gingival height selection, restoration design using Exocad software, and the importance of scan body and Ti-base accuracy. Additionally, attendees will explore model design options, including the use of digital analogs and gingival masks versus a modeless approach.
During this CE webinar, we will
• Perform accurate intraoral scanning for teeth, gingiva, and scan posts, and understand the differences between full arch and quadrant scans
• Verify scan post seating using radiographs to ensure precise digital impressions
• Select appropriate Ti-base diameters and gingival height (GH) for optimal implant crown fit and function
• Utilize Exocad software to design restorations and models, with a focus on selecting the correct scan body and Ti-base for crown fabrication
• Compare the advantages of models with digital analogs and gingival masks versus a modeless workflow in implant restoration fabrication
