The choice of vertical or horizontal preparation, whether on natural teeth or implants, requires different prosthetic protocols, but the factors for long-term biological and prosthetic success are multiple. The course will explore both the most established analog protocols and the most modern digital or hybrid approaches.

Modern prosthetic rehabilitation design leverages the overlapping of multiple three-dimensional patient data to design a new smile for both teeth and implants. This results in minimally invasive dental preparations and prosthetically guided implants that respect hard and soft tissues. Intra- and extraoral scanners, virtual wax-ups, high-resolution CBCT scans, and innovative guided surgery software ensure increasingly personalized approaches to each treatment plan.

Over the course of the four days, a series of clinical cases will be illustrated step by step, covering both clinical and laboratory aspects.
