Surgery by Dr. Costa Nicolopoulos | DSD protocol – Prostho by Dr. Dimitris Tasakos, Dr Konstantinos Papaioannou | Lab by Vangelis Konstantopoulos
Description: In the first stage of our treatment, we did the patient digitization with Aoral 3, MetiSmile and photos according to the DSD protocol. After the facially driven prosthetic set-up, we did the Guided Implant placement and we placed 4 Southern Implants, External Hex (3 Co-Axis 12d and 1 straight) with Compact Conical Abutments, and we delivered the provisional prosthesis in the same day. We left the patient on provisionals for 2,5 months.
In the second stage we did all the DSD documentation protocol again. The intraoral digital impressions were done and with Elite and we captured the dynamic bite of the patient in order to functionally copy the provisionals.
The implants position was captured by Elite’s IPG unique technology.
In the CAD-CAM phase, the lab used all the information (accurate & precise implant position, emergence profile & soft tissue, face-scan, dynamic bite) in order to produce a monolithic Zr prosthesis on Ti bases, that fulfills the aesthetic and functional needs of our patient.
The good and passive fit of our prosthesis was checked clinically and radiographically. After the final photos, the final outcome verified that everything was done according to our design (quality control).
