3D-printed-tooth for socket and soft tissue preservation in the aesthetic zone: Clinical protocol and case report

Abstract

Background: Since 1965, Dental Implantology and rehabilitation have evolved significantly, changing the paradigms in oral rehabilitation, from single-tooth replacement to complex maxillofacial reconstructions secondary to trauma or pathologic entities.Methods: The main goal of this article is throughout the preoperative, surgical and restorative phase, trace the path to copy the technique and get similar results in coincident patients. A brand new protocol step by step is written and detailed from previous techniques with the aid of CAD-CAM Technologies. Clinical Results: Soft tissue management on provisional with critical and subcritical emergence maintenance and select the most accurate healing abutment. The technique must be used precisely to achieve similar outcomes.Conclusions: Dental Implants play an essential role in oral rehabilitation. We must update and analyze treatments, co-working hand-by-hand with digital technologies. Further prospective randomized clinical studies are required to objectively measure this technique's clinical outcomes, which we are expecting to publish in the future.
