Abstract

Background:  Different digital tools have been used in clinical practice to assist in the planning and rehabilitation of patients. Some applications (apps) and software programs used in esthetic planning allow simulation of the smile design, improving communication between patients and professionals. Nonetheless, they are usually difficult to use, time-consuming, unattractive to present to the patient, and complicated to link with the 3D workflow. This article presents a new 3D digital smile design app for esthetic planning, smile simulation, chairside 3D virtual wax pattern, and trial restoration performed with portable devices.

Keywords: Esthetic Rehabilitation, 3d Printed, Photo Polymerizing Resin.
