“…Furthermore, Joda & Brägger [16] demonstrated that the digital implant-prosthetic workflow costs 18% less as compared to the conventional approach. Despite that, dentists seem to believe that the digital workflow is not costeffective [17]. The laboratorial and clinical costs involved are commonly reduced in the digital workflow, which leads to a potential increase in the dentist's productivity and profit.…”

“…While the digital workflow remains an important advance in dentistry, enabling a more efficient and streamlined treatment, it is not routinely accessible to clinicians. We did not experience an easy access to the tools and components used in the CAI/CAD/CAM protocol, although the literature shows a tendency to greater diffusion of the digital workflow among clinicians in the near future [17].…”

“…Importantly, the digital workflow alone does not guarantee success of the clinical rehabilitation. When surveying the opinion of dentists on the use of digital technologies, Van der Zande et al [17] demonstrated that the degree to which a technology is thought to be "effortless" is directly related to its implementation in dental practice. Additionally, the assumption that technology pushes dentists away from the core of the profession and imposes too many procedures was also significant.…”

Digital dentistry is a ubiquitous phenomenon nowadays but it requires access to technologies and learning curve. To aid digital workflow implementation, digital steps can be progressively incorporated in conventional workflows. We aimed to demonstrate a multidisciplinary oral rehabilitation performed mixing conventional procedures with digital open-source software programs and low-cost devices. A 46-year-old female patient had photographs, intraoral scans, and cone-beam computed tomography obtained and used in combination with conventional clinical exams to develop a treatment plan. Power point software was used for digital smile planing and Horos for digital implant planning. The digital dataset were used to guide conventional clinical procedures (scaling and root planning, gingivoplasty, in-office tooth bleaching, fiber-post restoration, implant and bone graft placement, teeth preparation, and protheses design and milling). The inclusion of digital steps in the conventional workflow enabled the performance of rehabilitation procedures with reduced clinical time and increased predictability, favoring the overall workflow and the communication among the different dental specialties. A mixed workflow can progressively lead to an exclusively digital workflow as technologies become accessible and learning curve is coped.

“…En recientes estudios se menciona que en el Reino Unido el 56% de los odontólogos no usa o no está interesado en implementar algún tipo de tecnología CAD/CAM en su práctica, y en Suiza, sólo el 23% de los clínicos utilizan esta tecnología en sus consultas 30 . Si bien estos números pueden considerarse desalentadores, una de las premisas importantes de este estudio fue que se observó que, a menor edad del odontólogo, existía una mayor posibilidad de implementación tecnológica en su práctica clínica 30,31 , lo cual contrasta con el grado de integración digital en las mallas curriculares de pregrado, las que en su mayoría carecen de educación digital 32 . Hoy en día la tecnologización de la clínica se relaciona más a una motivación personal que a una necesidad real, y es en este ímpetu en el que recae la creación de técnicas híbridas o digitalmente indirectas que permiten adentrarse de manera paulatina en este flujo de trabajo.…”

La siguiente revisión bibliográfica busca describir las alternativas digitales disponibles para la obtención de registros, posicionamiento y articulación virtual de modelos junto con ejemplificar algunos softwares que permitan la implementación de estas tecnologías en su trabajo diario. Se realizó una búsqueda de literatura en las bases de datos: Pubmed, LILACS, SciELO y Cochrane Library. Finalmente, luego de ser filtrados los resultados, se utilizaron un total de 36 publicaciones. Existen diversas herramientas disponibles actualmente para digitalizar una gran cantidad de técnicas que solo hasta hace algunos años eran realizadas manualmente por un operador. Algunas de ellas, facilitan una inmersión paulatina al mundo virtual del odontólogo novato ya que carecen de altos costos y recursos. Se sugiere que los odontólogos implementen estas tecnologías en su trabajo habitual según cada caso particular.

“…Intraoral cameras (IOC) are used by dentists to show a patient their interior surface of their mouth, as an alternative to mouth mirrors (Sharma et al, 2019;van der Zande et al, 2018). It was irst invented in the year 1989.…”

The aim of the study is to find an opinion about the use of digital dentistry in clinical practice among dental practitioners. Digital dentistry is the use of dental technologies and devices that incorporate digital (or) computer controlled components that carry out dental procedures than using mechanical (or) electrical tools. A detailed study is done by reviewing several articles about digital dentistry in dental practice. Many dentists are focusing on advanced dentistry now-a-days, which causes them to take care of conventional issues with present day arrangements. The purpose behind this article is to analyze the idea of computerized dentistry, its focal points and restrictions, and offer expressions and perceptions on explicit areas of advanced dentistry dependent on research, understanding, and correspondence with clinicians around the world. It is expected to give a functional perspective on computerized dentistry, an improvement for more prominent selection of the areas that are concerned with digital dentistry, and quicker incorporation of new innovations.
