Using a digital workflow with a team approach to achieve exceptional aesthetic outcomes

Successful dental implant treatment requires a vast knowledge of surgical, prosthetic, and material science principles. Digital technology used for acquisition and transfer of information can overcome the hurdles of traditional multi-practice communication and create a more streamlined multidisciplinary approach. Greater communication between the surgeon, restorative doctor, and laboratories results in greater predictability in both staged and immediate implant protocols.
