Abstract

---

Advancements in computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture (CAD/CAM) technology in dentistry have made possible the forming of dental restorations with high-performance materials that could not be easily shaped with conventional methods. One of these restorations that are commonly used nowadays, Zirconia implant supported prostheses. This presentation will focus on the proper zirconia framework design when using layered zirconia and other new technologies that help restoring malpositioned implants with a screw retained restoration.
