RESUMO

It is apparent that conventional impressions, usually made in vinyl polysiloxane or polyether material, could be better. One of the significant reasons for impressions' inadequacy is incomplete inclusion of the tooth preparation margins in the impression. There are numerous reasons for this challenge, some of which could be overcome by implementing the technique changes I have described in this column.

RESUMO

The global recession has brought a significant reduction in the number of patients seeking dental treatment. Dentists have reported anecdotally that many patients are not accepting treatment plans in spite of needing or wanting the treatment and being able to afford it. With proper education, patients who can afford treatment can be motivated to accept it. Education generally is necessary to stimulate behavior change, which in the context of this article is acceptance of treatment plans. Avoiding patient education leads only to patients' requests for minimal, urgent treatment. In-depth patient education usually leads to acceptance of at least a portion of the proposed treatment plan. It is suggested that dentists and their staff members plan and carry out diagnostic data collection together; that dentists present honest, thorough treatment plans or, if necessary, develop sequential treatment plans; and importantly, that dentists charge moderate, reasonable fees that they would pay themselves for the suggested treatment. Such activities will increase treatment plan acceptance, motivate new patients to stay in practices and help ensure a practice's financial viability and success.

RESUMO

The majority of indirect restorations placed in the United States are currently made by conventional procedures in 2 or more appointments, including standard impressions using VPS or polyether, use of dental laboratory technicians to make the restorations, and conventional cementation procedures. The likelihood of rapid change to digital impressions and/or in-office milling is not predicted. However, some dentists have changed to making digital impressions and sending the information to specific dental laboratories to have the crowns fabricated. In general, they are satisfied with the concept and the restorations thus produced. It is anticipated that digital impressions will slowly continue to grow until the concept eventually dominates the market. In-office milling of restorations by CEREC or E4D is now a reliable clinical process in spite of an arduous and long period of development. It is anticipated that this concept will continue to grow. At this time, any of the 3 concepts discussed in this article--conventional procedures, digital impressions sent to a laboratory, or digital impressions followed by in-office milling--are acceptable depending on the preferences of practitioners.
