Abstract
This clinical report describes a digital workflow using extraoral digital photographs
and volumetric datasets from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging to create
a 3-dimensional (3D), virtual patient with photorealistic appearance. In a patient
with microstomia, hinge axis approximation, diagnostic casts simulating postextraction
alveolar ridge profile, and facial simulation of prosthetic treatment outcome were
completed in a 3D, virtual environment. The approach facilitated the diagnosis, communication,
and patient acceptance of the treatment of maxillary and mandibular computer-aided
design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) of immediate dentures at increased
occlusal vertical dimension.
