Abstract
Fixed Full-Arch Implant Restorations: Clinical Insights on Treatment Planning, Digital vs. Analog Workflows, and Long-Term Outcomes
Fixed full-arch implant restorations are a predictable solution for the rehabilitation of edentulous and terminal dentition patients, yet their success depends on accurate treatment planning, workflow selection, and long-term maintenance. This lecture presents clinical insights into full-arch implant therapy, with emphasis on comparing digital and analog workflows and their impact on clinical outcomes.
Through selected clinical cases, key aspects of diagnosis, prosthetically driven planning, surgical execution, and prosthetic design will be discussed. Digital technologies and conventional approaches will be critically evaluated in terms of accuracy, efficiency, complication management, and long-term performance. Clinical cases with follow-up will highlight common challenges and practical strategies to optimize biological and mechanical outcomes.
