Case Study 2/1/2025 Restorative

Digital wax-up workflow for full-mouth rehab

6 months (phased approach)
55-65 years
Complications noted

Documenting our process from intraoral scan to 3D printed try-in. The key was getting the lab involved early so we could iterate on occlusion before committing to final materials. **Timeline:** 3 lab iterations over 2 weeks before final approval. **What broke:** First try-in had inadequate posterior support—caught it before final.

Final restoration: Full-mouth reconstruction with digital workflow After
Pre-treatment: Worn dentition and collapsed occlusion Before

Technical Notes

Digital workflow from intraoral scan to 3D printed try-in saved us 2 weeks compared to analog methods. Patient approved final design before committing to materials, which improved satisfaction significantly.

Full-mouth rehab with digital workflow is the future. The 3D printed try-in allowing patient approval before material commitment is excellent practice. Saved time and improved outcomes.

Phased approach for full-mouth cases is smart, especially with TMJ considerations. Managing occlusion through the process requires careful planning - sounds like you handled it well.

Impressive restoration work. The digital workflow time savings you mentioned (2 weeks) is significant. Patient satisfaction must have been high with the try-in process.
