It’s now been a decade since I started using iPhysio® for implant temporization. The first release, back in 2015, was a polymer healing cap (available in three different shapes and heights) that clipped onto a titanium base. We quickly encountered mechanical disassembly issues during the osseointegration period; these led to patient discomfort, localized inflammation, and a potential loss of accuracy during intraoral scanning.

Artificial intelligence (AI) will not redefine dentistry by replacing professionals, but by altering how their expertise is applied. Over the next three to five years, AI will become a foundational layer of the digital dental ecosystem, driving significant gains in efficiency, productivity, and quality across clinical and laboratory workflows.

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems are increasingly being incorporated into dental imaging, caries detection, periodontal assessment, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) interpretation, treatment planning, and patient communication. These tools promise to enhance the consistency and speed of diagnostic workflows, especially in radiographically complex cases.
Dr. Tony Bader
Many dental findings remain invisible to patients and often difficult to explain with words alone. Micro-cracks, marginal gaps, early caries or fine anatomical details can easily be overlooked without proper visualization. Yet these details often make the difference between monitoring and treating, between uncertainty and clarity.

Advances in digital imaging continue to transform modern endodontics, enabling clinicians to diagnose and manage complex anatomical variations with greater confidence and precision. Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has become an essential diagnostic tool when conventional radiography does not provide sufficient information.

Since its introduction, computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology has held promise for achieving same-day restorative dental care. Yet for many years, chairside workflows have remained out of reach for routine clinical use, and adoption has often been hesitant.
