condition on prognosis of the tooth and dentition in the complex treatment
planning

the One-day Jaw Rehabilitation technique with virtual surgical planning and 3D
printed prostheses which allows immediate grafting, implant placement, and
prosthesis loading at one surgical visit. Patient selection, benefits, and
complications of the procedure will also be discussed allowing practitioners to
identify patients who might benefit from immediate reconstruction.
