Summary

The aim of this research project is emphasize the benefit of the digital workflow compared to conventional impressions and crown processing with standard la procedures. The objectives of the present study are to measure and compare the global cost, the time spent in the dental chair and in the lab and the fit of both digital and conventional workflow. Additionally, patient centered outcomes will be recorded.

Conditions

• Tooth Loss

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Impression procedure	Each patient will go through both type of impression during single appointment: first the digital impression and then the conventional one (to avoid residual impression materials for the optical impressions). The time necessary for each procedure will be recorded.
DEVICE	Crown manufacturing procedures	Test and control implant crowns will be screw-retained on a multi-unit abutment. The conventional crown will be made of a Zirconia framework veneered with cosmetic ceramics directly screwed on the multi-unit platform (no titanium base). The experimental crown will be made in full zirconia and designed in the TRIOS software.
