The Digital Integrated Workflow in the Aesthetic Management of the Smile: A Case Report
The aesthetic treatment for anterior teeth requires a series of clinical and technical evaluations to obtain a predictable result, following a well-defined operating sequence. Today, the clinical–technical team can use different digital tools in the different steps of the workflow. A preventive assessment, the knowledge of limits, and the possibilities of surgical and prosthetic procedures allow to use these devices. Sharing goals of the treatment with the patient according to their expectations and needs is the key point of the treatment plan. Setting a defined treatment plan avoids invasive procedures. In this clinical case report, a 27-year-old patient affected by Class II div 2 malocclusion with deep bite was treated with a full digital workflow. Previewing the aesthetics was through dedicated software, which shows operators and patients the objectives of the therapy and guides the dental technician in the first phase of the work. The use of digital flows in the prosthetic phases reduces the working time. In this case, it shows the impact of a digital workflow on peri-prosthetic therapy for the aesthetic rehabilitation of the upper central incisors in a young adult.
