Digital workflows have revolutionized denture fabrication, offering greater customization and rapid production. This clinical report describes 2 treatment approaches using digital techniques to address prosthetic challenges. The first patient had a large maxillary defect after mucormycosis surgery, necessitating a combination of digital and conventional methods for obturator fabrication because of computer-aided design software program limitations. For the second patient, digital workflows were combined with the conventional neutral zone technique to improve denture stability and retention, effectively addressing the challenge of severely resorbed arches. These treatment approaches demonstrate the potential of digital workflows in prosthodontics and highlight the need for further technological advancements.
数字化工作流程彻底改变了义齿制作方式,提供了更大的定制性和快速生产能力。本临床报告描述了两种使用数字技术应对修复挑战的治疗方法。第一位患者在毛霉菌病手术后出现大面积上颌骨缺损,由于计算机辅助设计软件程序的局限性,需要结合数字和传统方法制作阻塞器。对于第二位患者,数字化工作流程与传统的中性区技术相结合,以提高义齿的稳定性和固位力,有效应对了严重吸收的牙弓带来的挑战。这些治疗方法展示了数字化工作流程在口腔修复学中的潜力,并突出了进一步技术进步的必要性。
