Telescopic Crown Over Denture in 1 Visit

By Chris Hermes

Telescopic Crown Over Denture in 1 Visit - The Medit Times - Medit

With a full digital workflow, we were able to get a telescopic denture in one visit.

Usually, we need four to five visits to finish a case.

– Bite registration was completed in the first visit, so the lab could articulate the current height.

– Primary and secondary crowns were produced in the same procedure.

– No waxup was needed.

“Prep and registration. All in one visit.”

The second visit simply consisted of cementation with a perfect fit.

The Medit i700 was used for a patient needing a full arch rehab on implant due to partial edentulism and periodontal damage.

Dr. Antonino Cacioppo did a guided surgery with multiple extractions and positioning of 6 implants.

To finalize the case, he scanned the following using the i700:

– The upper jaw
– The lower jaw with provisional
– The lower jaw without provisional
– The lower jaw with scan bodies on implants
– Buccal bites

Everything was sent to the lab and his team was able to finish the case in a single visit with a fully digital office/lab workflow.

The result was a screw-retained, milled zirconia/titanium Toronto Bridge.

Thanks to the accuracy of the intraoral scans, the case was finished without any occlusal retouch.

Recording Mandibular Movement

Users can record and simulate patients’ mandibular movement when occlusion is aligned.

“Jaw motion, made by Medit, brings new possibilities and a new vision to digital dentistry.”

Digital Denture Conversion Using Existing Denture

By Mohamed Abdel Moniem

{% video_player “embed_player” overrideable=False, type=’hsvideo2′, hide_playlist=True, viral_sharing=False, embed_button=False, autoplay=False, hidden_controls=False, loop=False, muted=False, full_width=False, width=’3024′, height=’1582′, player_id=’91998283360′, style=” %}

Using the conventional method to transform the old fitted denture to a screw-retained prosthesis is highly unpredictable and time-consuming, and can result in short-term solutions that need replacement.

So Dr. Mohamed Abdel Moniem combined digital and conventional workflows to provide accurate, retrievable, easy-to-repair prosthesis at an affordable cost.

“The golden key is starting with the Medit intraoral scanner to scan the edentulous arch, denture in place, and scan body to end up with perfectly aligned scans preserving the existing 3D prosthetic condition.”
