3D printing in implantology and modern applications

Why digital procedures are becoming increasingly important in implantology Implantology has developed significantly in recent years. Many procedures that were previously performed entirely manually are now often planned and prepared digitally. An important aspect of this is the use of 3D printing technologies. What was considered a future technology a few years ago has now arrived in many areas of dentistry. Particularly in implantology, 3D printing opens up new possibilities for implementing treatments more precisely, predictably, and in some cases, more quickly.

Post Crown or Implant: Treatment, Post Crown, Core Build-up, and Costs – The Difference Between a Post Crown and an Implant

When a tooth is severely damaged by decay or an accident, the question of the appropriate tooth replacement often arises. In modern dentistry, patients have various options to restore the function and aesthetics of their teeth. The choice often falls between a classic post crown (often referred to as a post and core) and a modern dental implant. While the post crown utilizes the natural tooth root, the dental implant acts as an artificial tooth root that is firmly anchored in the jaw. Both methods have their specific areas of application and advantages, depending on the condition of the remaining tooth structure and the desired outcome of the treatment. In this overview, you will learn that a post crown is often used when the natural tooth root is still intact. In this case, the dentist uses a post to firmly anchor a crown. In contrast, an implant is inserted directly into the jawbone when the entire tooth, including the root, is missing. The decision as to whether a post crown or an implant is the right choice depends on a thorough examination by the dentist, where the costs for a post crown compared to the higher costs of an implant also play a role.
