Abstract

Objectives: This case report describes a digital workflow for designing and 3D printing a guide with the dual purpose of gingivectomy and tooth preparation in the esthetic zone, to be followed by cementation of ceramic veneers under rubber dam isolation.

Clinical considerations: The patient's primary concern was to improve her smile. After clinical evaluation, our recommendation was for a minimal gingivectomy to match the gingival zenith for both central incisors, to be followed by ceramic laminate veneers. A digitally designed and 3D printed guide was used for gingivectomy and tooth preparation for the ceramic veneers. Ceramic veneers were cemented under rubber dam isolation to maximize bonding properties.

Conclusions: A single guide can be digitally designed and 3D printed to perform controlled gingivectomy and minimally invasive tooth preparations. The outcome of the gingivectomy improved the gingival architecture for central incisors, and the ceramic veneers fulfilled the patient's esthetic demands.

三维打印双缩减指南：牙龈切除术和陶瓷贴面微创制备的可行替代方案。

目的：本病例报告描述了设计和三维打印导板的数字化工作流程，该导板具有双重用途：在美学区域进行龈切除术和牙齿预备，然后在橡胶坝隔离下粘接陶瓷贴面：患者最关心的是如何改善她的笑容。经过临床评估，我们建议对两颗中切牙进行最小程度的龈切除术，使其与龈顶相匹配，然后粘贴陶瓷贴面。龈切除术和陶瓷贴面的牙体预备采用了数字设计和三维打印的指南。陶瓷贴面在橡胶坝隔离下粘接，以最大限度地提高粘接性能：结论：通过数字化设计和三维打印的单一导板可以进行可控的龈切除术和微创牙体预备。龈切除术的结果改善了中切牙的牙龈结构，陶瓷贴面满足了患者的美学要求。

期刊介绍： Operative Dentistry is a refereed, international journal published bi-monthly and distributed to subscribers in over 50 countries. In 2012, we printed 84 articles (672 pages). Papers were submitted by authors from 45 countries, in the categories of Clinical Research, Laboratory Research, Clinical Techniques/Case Presentations and Invited Papers, as well as Editorials and Abstracts. One of the strong points of our journal is that our current publication time for accepted manuscripts is 4 to 6 months from the date of submission. Clinical Techniques/Case Presentations have a very quick turnaround time, which allows for very rapid publication of clinical based concepts. We also provide color for those papers that would benefit from its use. The journal does not accept any advertising but you will find postings for faculty positions. Additionally, the journal also does not rent, sell or otherwise allow its subscriber list to be used by any other entity
