Digital Smile Design and Fabrication of CAD/CAM Restorations in a Complex Esthetic Case.

Analog design protocols through the use of wax-ups are highly variable, technique sensitive, and operator dependent. Current digital smile design and treatment planning tools facilitate simplified processes based on the patient's face as well as specific esthetic and functional needs of the individual patient. The initial smile design achieved with an advanced and novel smile design software enables a straightforward treatment plan and execution, even in complex esthetic situations where various restorations are needed. This case report describes the clinical and laboratory steps to address the esthetic and functional requirements of a patient with complex restorative needs using a complete digital workflow.
