Why it matters for dental
Prosthodontists and high-end restorative practices can shorten chair time and lab turnaround for full-arch cases by adopting the digital workflow described in this paper.
Key points
- The article presents a step-by-step digital protocol for complete-mouth rehabilitation that integrates intra-oral scanning, CAD/CAM design, and 3-D printed prototypes.
- Author Hongseok An is affiliated with a major academic prosthodontics department, indicating evidence-based techniques rather than vendor marketing.
- Publication in The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry (20 July 2026) places the workflow in a peer-reviewed context, giving clinicians a citable reference for technique and material choices.
- No specific payer policy, regulatory change, or recall is mentioned; the value is clinical efficiency and case acceptance for complex restorative practices.
