Written by TheLink Editorial Team | Feb 1, 2026, 4:00:00 PM

Overview

Digital dentistry is not intraoral scanners, 3D printers, or CAD programs - these are just tools. Dental professionals aim to balance the new digital possibilities with fundamental prosthodontic and implant concepts and evidence-based procedures. Additionally, the continuous development and enhancements of technology challenges dental professionals to stay up to date.

Dr. Marta Revilla León’s presentation at the Alpha-Bio Tec. Global Congress 2026 in Rome will review the digital implant scan techniques, their classification based on their accuracy, results, and the evidence-based findings.

  • Recognize that digital technologies are only tools and conventional concepts are still vital
