Digital workflow in interdisciplinary dentistry with an airway analysis: A case report with 2‐year follow‐up

Software has greatly enhanced the ability of dental teams to plan treatments integrating esthetics, function, and airway health. Over the past decade, the compromised or underdeveloped airway has become an increasingly important focus in dentistry. Using a guided digital workflow, the collaborative team can virtually plan, manage, and execute treatment with greater accuracy and predictability. This case report demonstrates the use of a digital workflow in interdisciplinary collaboration, incorporating airway analysis and smile design to treat a complex case in a 38-year-old patient. A 2-year follow-up showed sustained improvements in both airway health and esthetic outcomes. The transparency provided by digital tools also improved patient communication, case acceptance, and documentation, contributing to more predictable and satisfying results.
