Digital Planning in the Contemporary Management of Amelogenesis Imperfecta

• When considering any kind of significant irreversible change to the biomechanical and aesthetic arrangement of a dentition; clinicians should begin this process with a clear vision of the end-goal in mind, prior to undertaking any operative steps. • Attaining a satisfying treatment outcome relies upon the achievement of a meeting of the minds between the patient, the restorative clinician and the dental technician. All stakeholders need to be able to visualise and where achievable, trial and tailor an intended treatment outcome in order to ensure the expectations of treatment can be met. • Contemporary tools which may be used to achieve comprehensive restorative planning and communication include the Face Hunter® 3D facial scanner, PlaneSystem® and Zirkonzahn.Modifier software, which together, offer a complete planning and communication solution according to the Zirkonzahn digital workflow.
