Clinical Cases

An exploration into the challenging nature of diagnosing osteoarthritic pain in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and how Dr. Archambault rose to the challenge through 3D imaging.

Dr. Zalesky let’s a patient 'test drive' her new upper restoration by creating a digital wax-up and provisionals for her to wear home – earning her full trust and prompting her to initiate the same treatment on her lower teeth.  

Dr. Archambault showcases her patient’s follow-up scans four months into treatment and discusses how 3D imaging has significantly advanced treatment of the TMJ complex.

Dr. Raj Gaur turns two surgeries into one by refining his diagnosis through 3D imaging.

Dr. Joseph Sabbagh demonstrates how taking a digital intraoral scan led him to the placement of 2 beautiful zirconia crowns with ‘perfect gums’ 2 months post-op.

Dr. Bill Dischinger shares the story of how a mother’s instinct and a 3D scan led to a last-minute pivot and a non-extraction orthodontic plan in a 10-year-old patient.

Dr. Francis LaCouvee shares how 3D imaging led him to reassess a patient’s condition, cancel his original referrals for endodontic and periodontic treatment and send him straight to an oral surgeon.

Dr. Robert Benavides shares how his team used 3D visualizations and a multi-disciplinary approach to turn a skeptical and frustrated patient into a trusting one, eager to begin treatment. 

Dr. Robert Pauley uses his "Everyday Digital Workflow" for an implant on tooth #19, resulting in efficient use of clinical chair time, extremely accurate implant placement, healthy post-op osseointegration and a very happy patient.

Dr. Joseph Sabbagh uses a simple digital workflow to turn a fractured ceramic crown into a beautifully restored zirconia bridge that showed perfect contact point and great soft tissue adaptation at 6 weeks post-op.

When Dr. Harris relocated his orthodontic practice, there was one thing he never wanted to do: store stone models. In this case study, Dr. Harris shares the huge changes his orthodontic practice has undergone since moving from analog to digital impressions.

Dr. Greg Greenberg demonstrates how a 3D scan prompted him to change the course of a young patient’s orthodontic treatment, veering away from protocol and deciding against extraction of an impacted mesiodens.

Dr. Carlo Massimo Saratti demonstrates how a digital workflow allowed him to plan and execute the opening of a patient’s vertical dimension (VDO) resulting in a minimally invasive restoration and an exceptional prosthetic outcome.
