Digital Reference Dentures - step by step

How they created digital dentures

This case study shows how to combine traditional, analog denture methodology with modern, digital impression-taking. The result is stunning accuracy, fewer appointments needed, and delighted patients.

A digital patient

Merging the digital smile design and face scans creates a digital patient. This allows for optimizing the individual tooth arrangement for the new dentures, ensuring a perfect fit and function.

Intraoral scanning

Scanning the patient’s existing dentures eliminates the need for traditional impressions, saving time and discomfort.

One appointment

Obtaining all information they need to create the new dentures was done in just one appointment, with less time and hassle for both doctor and patient.
