Fig. 44 Fig. 45 carried out, including: the phonetics, aesthetics and the correct support of the soft tissues. Once the pink flange was finished, the prosthesis was positioned in the muffle furnace for the curing steps (Fig. 36). These systems provide a good precision and an excellent detail reproduction. Once cured, the prosthesis was extracted and finished (Fig. 37) and then to the final polishing prior to the delivery (Figs. 38–40). Finally, the superstructure and the prosthesis were placed in the mouth (Figs. 41–43), verifying the good aesthet- ics, function and also the satisfaction of the patient (Figs. 44–46). Conclusion The teeth set-up, and digital systems allow us to accurately design a complete rehabilitation, and is important in highlighting from the very early stages which solution (fixed or removable) is most suitable for the patient. In this case, the solution of a remov- able prosthesis made possible an optimal functional and an aesthetic result._ about Dr Gualtiero Mandelli graduated in Medicine and Surgery from University of Study of Milan in 1985.
