Abstract

From Pixels to Prostheses: Precision, Predictability, and Patient-Centered
Care
(3P’s concept)
Abstract
Digital technologies have fundamentally transformed contemporary
prosthodontics, redefining how clinicians diagnose, plan, design, and deliver
prosthetic rehabilitation. The transition from analogue workflows to fully digital or
hybrid approaches has enabled high levels of accuracy, efficiency, and
reproducibility. However, the true value of digital prosthodontics lies not merely in
technological adoption, but in its ability to enhance Precision, improve
Predictability , and promote Patient-centered care.
By framing digital prosthodontics through the 3P’s concept, this presentation
highlights how precision in data capture and design translates into predictable
clinical outcomes, while simultaneously improving patient communication,
comfort, and satisfaction. Current limitations, learning curves, and future
developments—including artificial intelligence and automation—will also be
addressed. The lecture aims to provide clinicians, educators, and researchers
with a balanced understanding of how digital technologies can be effectively
integrated into prosthodontic practice to optimize both clinical outcomes and
patient experience.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this lecture, participants will be able to:
1. Understand the role of digital technologies in enhancing precision
throughout prosthodontic workflows, from diagnosis to definitive
prosthesis delivery.
2. Evaluate how digital and hybrid workflows contribute to improved
predictability of clinical outcomes in fixed, removable, and implant
prosthodontics.
3. Apply the 3P’s concept (Precision, Predictability, and Patient-
Centered Care) to clinical decision making in digital prosthodontics.
4. Recognize the benefits and limitations of current digital
technologies, including intraoral scanning, CAD/CAM design, and
advanced manufacturing methods.
5. Appraise future trends in digital prosthodontics, including the
potential impact of artificial intelligence and automation on clinical
practice and education.
