This presentation focuses on whether a complete digital workflow, without a definitive cast, from data acquisition to manufacturing of the definitive prostheses for complete-arch implant treatment, is a scientifically and clinically validated workflow. A review of current literature for intraoral scanning and photogrammetry will provide insight into both technologies, reviewing their respective advantages, limitations, and recommendations. Although many publications have described intraoral scanning and photogrammetry for complete-arch digital implant recording, it has been recommended and emphasized that more clinical studies are necessary to validate the complete digital workflow clinically and scientifically for complete-arch implant-supported treatment. This presentation provides a contemporary approach to utilize digital technology for data acquisition, design, and manufacturing for a dual-arch implant therapy.
