The following case report focuses on the full-mouth rehabilitation of a 53-year-old patient using the Straumann Pro Arch concept, advanced digital tools, and the high primary stability of BLX Implants. This comprehensive approach not only met the patient’s functional needs but also exceeded his aesthetic expectations, significantly enhancing his confidence and overall quality of life.

December 2024. The Straumann Group, a global leader in dental and implantology solutions, has been recognized as the #1 company in the “Chemicals, Pharmaceuticals & Medtech” category in the 2025 Innovation Ranking by leading Swiss business magazines BILANZ and PME. The company also secured an impressive #3 position in the overall ranking.

Eirik Salvesen: “When patients realize we can track our own success rates, it builds trust.”

The immediate placement of implants in the posterior mandible is a clinically well documented and widely accepted treatment protocol. However, achieving successful outcomes is highly dependent on local risk factors. Factors such as the volume of apical bone, the integrity of the alveolar socket and the interradicular septum after extraction, along with inadequate engagement for primary stability, may negatively influence the decision to proceed in 15-20% of cases.

Digital workflows in dentistry have revolutionized how clinicians approach complex procedures, enhancing precision, efficiency, and patient outcomes. Among these advancements, the integration of fully-guided systems for full-arch rehabilitation has emerged as a game changer. This clinical case report highlights the clinical success achieved through a fully-guided digital workflow using Smilecloud, a cutting-edge smile design and centralized collaboration platform.

Immediate implants, i.e. immediately placed and restored implants, have recently gained considerable interest and popularity (1,2). Compared to conservative and staged approaches, immediate implants may be considered favourable regarding treatment time, surgical sessions, and the possibility for immediate, fixed temporization. Also, outcomes like soft tissues and interdental papillae preservation may be improved by adopting immediate approaches(1,3).

• Rapid prototyping within clinics streamlines customised dental device production • Creating a digital patient through 3D imaging enables visual tools for patients and dental professionals • In-house additive manufacturing can override overhead clinic costs by over 80%

Digital treatment planning is becoming the new standard to help clinicians deliver high-quality and esthetic care, while improving patient engagement. In this episode of 60 SECCONDS, Renata Camino Navarro explains how digital treatment planning with coDiagnostiX® has overall increased the quality of care for her patients.

The small, lightweight and ergonomically designed, pen-like Virtuo Vivo™ intra-oral scanner provides unparalleled patient comfort, enhanced efficiency and new treatment options.

Some 60 percent of 18- to 39-year olds in Germany have misaligned teeth [1] and there is clear evidence that patients are becoming increasingly interested in the option of esthetic treatment of misalignment with discrete, transparent aligners in the dental practice. As well as using aligners as a preventative measure, some also want to improve their appearance, a phenomenon that has become more and more prevalent because people have been working from home and see themselves more often on screen in online conferences - i.e. the “Zoom effect” [2,3]. Any dentist with a basic interest in orthodontics can round off the treatment options available in their dental practice by offering aligner therapy. In this article, Svenja Wollitz M.D.Sc., a dentist practicing in Wiesbaden, Germany, presents a case study with ClearCorrect® aligners from the Straumann Group to illustrate how this system can be implemented responsibly in the patient's familiar environment.

Virtual dentistry has been around for a while, and has most often been used to offer consults to talk about specific treatments or cosmetic procedures. The COVID-19 pandemic made that even more prevalent as dental practices needed to find ways to work with patients while minimizing in-office risk for everyone involved.
