Digital protocols allow us to accelerate the planning process in multidisciplinary cases, as well as to increase predictability. The goal of the restorative team is to bring the ideal design closer to the final result; to this end, facial scanning and three-dimensional face-guided smile design are essential in wear treatments and implant-supported restorations.

Learning objectives:

1-understand the role of digital protocols in accelerating planning and enhancing predictability in multidisciplinary cases

2-learn how facial scanning and 3d face-guided smile design contribute to ideal outcomes in wear treatments and implant restorations

3-explore how the restorative team can align the ideal smile design with the final clinical result using digital tools
