The workflow for a prefabricated prelaminated fibula free flap has been almost entirely digitized. One of the last 2 remaining steps is the impression making in stage 1 surgery. This article describes a novel computed-tomography based digital scanning technique with an assessment of the resultant accuracy.

Associate Professor and Department Head, Department of Prosthodontics, University of Ferrara, Ferrara, Italy.
The purpose of this article was to present a novel clinical workflow for the fabrication of complete dentures using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) technology. The dental technique consists of 3 clinical steps and 2 laboratory phases that result in the production of 2 CAD-CAM milled complete denture bases with prefabricated teeth. The integration of analog and digital procedures and materials maximizes their benefits in the planning and fabrication of complete dentures, with the goal of improving clinical outcomes.

Objective: To assess the clinical performance of monolithic screw-retained implant-supported zirconia crowns (MSI) bonded or mechanically retained on prefabricated Ti-bases using a complete digital workflow.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent single dental implant procedures between January 2017 and May 2018. Inclusion criteria were: patients over 18 years of age; implants placed in posterior sites; MSI on prefabricated Ti-base realized by using a complete digital workflow; a minimum follow-up period of 2 years.
Digital workflow for fabricating an implant-supported overdenture with the custom disk method.

Professor, Gerodontology and Oral Rehabilitation, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU), Tokyo, Japan.
Although methods have been developed to fabricate complete digital dentures, a digital workflow of fabrication methods for complete dentures with metal frameworks such as implant overdentures has not yet been established. The purpose of this dental technique article was to provide a comprehensive description of implant overdenture fabrication techniques using a digital workflow originally devised by applying the custom disk method. In this method, the custom disk was made of resin and contained prefabricated artificial teeth.

A fully digital workflow incorporating autonomous robotic surgery is described. A prefabricated interim prosthesis offers the potential to streamline the process and reduce chairside time. Adopting this digital workflow can simplify the treatment procedure and help minimize the overall time required for the provision of implant-supported prostheses.

Objective: The SafetyCrown workflow facilitates the immediate restoration of posterior single sites with the one-abutment/one-time concept. This randomized clinical trial aimed to assess the direct effect of immediate restoration on dental patient-reported outcomes (dPROs), feasibility, implant accuracy, and time.
Materials And Methods: Participants with a single posterior edentulous site for late implant placement underwent optical impressions, shade selection, and cone beam computed tomography.
