Computer-aided Design/Computer-aided Manufacturing Applications Using CT and Cone Beam CT Scanning Technology
The advent of 3-D reconstruction using CT or cone beam CT (CBCT) empowers clinicians with tools to simulate implant placement, bone grafts, or orthognathic surgical procedures in a true and accurate virtual environment.

A Simple Technique to Create an Interim Provisional Restoration
It is usually a challenge for a patient to feel immediately comfortable with his or her new smile. One of the best ways to gain patient acceptance of the new smile is to place provisional restorations that mimic the final ceramic restoration in both tooth form and color.

Techniques for the Use of CT Imaging for the Fabrication of Surgical Guides
Often, difficulties related to poor surgical or prosthetic outcomes can be directly linked to the diagnostic and treatment-planning phase.

Bone Grafting Assessment: Focus on the Anterior and Posterior Maxilla Utilizing Advanced 3-D Imaging Technologies
As dental implant reconstruction has evolved into a mainstream alternative to replace missing teeth, bone grafting techniques have also evolved as an ancillary procedure for site development, sinus augmentation, and guided bone regeneration.

Screw Spreading: Technical Considerations and Case Report
The spreading system is an alternative technique to the Summers osteotome. A specific screw instrument, the "spreader", achieved a controlled and standardized dilation of the bone horizontally.
