ADS Talks: Digital Rehabilitation

The world of digital design is now the ultimate driving force behind effortless deliveries! Having the ability to harness these new world workflows is allowing for more efficient communication while facilitating a very predictable “planning-to-delivery” process. This case, processed with Dr. John Hooker, required multiple diagnostic stages to ensure an esthetic and functional final prosthesis. Through digital planning, the Absolute team was able to provide a surgical guide for precise crown lengthening. Multiple stages of prototyping ensured an accurate bite while satisfying this patient’s esthetics demands!

ADS Talks: Ivotion Millable Dentures

Absolute utilizes mostly additive denture manufacturing, however, it is still crucial for the modern-day laboratory to be able to mill a denture. This comprehensive milling option offers a digital preference for patients with limited vertical clearance when a printed denture might not be an option. Ivoclar Vivadent offers an exceptional option to accomplish this! The Ivotion solution allows for a fully monolithic denture, milled in a single stage, from a pink and tooth colored puck. The very innovative "bi-colored disc geometry" allows for precise placement of the gingival junction, without the need of any hand processing, to establish a perfect tissue to tooth junction.
