Here are four notes:

1. In the first visit, a patient receives a consultation, diagnosis and digital scans, which are manipulated using 3D software. The scans are then sent electronically to the production facility that can print and create digital models and crowns.

2. The implants are inserted and restored during a patient‘s second visit.

3. Digital technology replaces the need for manual skills by the surgeon, the restorative dentists and the technician.

4. Digital technology has the potential to enable dental professionals to provide dental implants earlier in their career.
