Minimally invasive prosthetic procedures (MIPPs) have been suggested and utilized for the esthetic rehabilitation of severely worn dentition. Minimizing the reduction of tooth structure and the use of additional adhesive techniques are key elements to ensure long-term results. This article presents the long-term result of this restorative technique.

Statement Of Problem: The integration of the digital workflow into routine prosthodontic practice for single-tooth implant surgery and fixed prosthesis fabrication has occurred at a remarkable pace in the last 5 years. With the greater demands of esthetics and precision, the definitive implant analog cast must ensure accurate implant positioning as well as an accurate relationship to adjacent teeth.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the accuracy of the 3-dimensional (3D) implant position of definitive casts produced by 3D printing and analog technology.
