Digital Workflow for Producing Hybrid Posts and Cores

Healthcare (Basel). 2023 Mar 2;11(5):727. doi: 10.3390/healthcare11050727.

Abstract

A novel and straightforward digital workflow is described to aid clinicians in producing in-office hybrid posts and cores. The method is based on scanning and using the basic module of a computer-assisted design and computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD-CAM) software program for dental applications. The applicability of the technique in a digital workflow is the simplicity of in-office production of a hybrid post and core that can be delivered to the patient in the same day.

Keywords: CAD-CAM; digital workflow; fiber post; post and core; zirconia.
