I’m excited to share that our latest research has been published in BMC Oral Health 🎉 📄 “Passive fit and trueness of complete-arch implant-supported cobalt chromium frameworks manufactured using different digital techniques: a laboratory study” In this study, we compared the passive fit and trueness of complete-arch implant-supported Co-Cr frameworks fabricated using: 🔹 CAD/CAM milling 🔹 Selective Laser Melting (SLM) 3D printing 🔹 Conventional lost wax technique Our findings demonstrated that digital fabrication techniques—particularly CAD/CAM milling—provided superior marginal fit and trueness compared to conventional casting methods. This work highlights the growing impact of digital dentistry in improving the accuracy and predictability of implant-supported prostheses. Seeing this work come to life after months of effort, learning, revisions, and collaboration is incredibly rewarding. Every publication is more than just a paper — it represents growth, challenges overcome, and a step forward in one’s career. #DigitalDentistry #ImplantDentistry #CADCAM #3DPrinting #DentalResearch #Prosthodontics #DentalTechnology #ResearchPublication
