Course Abstract:
The use of cad-cam technology has been established in dentistry, in particular for the fabrication of restorations such as inlays, copings and frameworks, with rationale supporting both their accuracy of fit and their longevity, which either matches or supersedes that achieved with more conventional techniques.
The use of cad-cam in implant dentistry concluded that proof of concept was established for the use of these technologies in the fabrication of both abutments and frameworks.
The lecture will address one of the more recent cad-cam systems introduced into the market, the Atlantis system. This system which offers a multi-platform range of milled abutments for a variety of different implant systems, with focus on the differences with the use of standard abutments.
Atlantis patient-specific suprastructures will be discussed. This cad-cam solution offers a full range of implant suprastructures for fixed prostheses, restoring partially and fully edentulous arches and for meeting patient requirements for function and aesthetics.
