Digital and analog techniques for cemento‐enamel junction reconstruction: A case study

This study looked at a dental issue called non-carious cervical lesions, which happens when the hard tissue near the gum line of a tooth wears away, making it harder to treat gum recession. Two different approaches were tested to rebuild the lost tissue in the gum area before performing a procedure to cover the exposed roots. One approach used traditional methods with physical guides to help place the new tissue, while the other used advanced digital techniques to create a precise guide using 3D printing. After 6 months, both methods successfully covered the exposed roots and helped the gums heal properly. However, the traditional method's results can vary depending on the dentist's skill, while the digital method, although more accurate, can be expensive. Using these methods can improve teamwork among dental specialists and lead to better-looking results by ensuring the gum line is placed exactly where it should be.
