Abstract
- This article describes a digital workflow for ceramic veneer preparation using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing technology. A digital waxing was planned on the exocad software program to reestablish esthetic and functional parameters. Then, the digital guides for veneer preparation were designed by using the Meshmixer design software program to control the tooth structure removed during preparation to the minimal thickness necessary for the definitive restorations. The digital guides were printed in an additively manufactured clear resin and used in the preparation appointment, allowing a more conservative and controlled preparation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
