Abstract:

Prosthodontics encompasses the restoration of both function and aesthetics, involving clinical workflows, customized prosthesis fabrication, and interdisciplinary information exchange and communication among clinicians, technicians, and patients. Inadequate clinician-patient communication is the primary contributor to conflicts within this field. The application of digital technologies facilitates enhanced communication and improved clinician-patient relationships. This article explores the utilization of digital technologies in clinician-patient communication for prosthodontics, such as intraoral scanning, virtual design, and digital platforms. These technologies optimize the pre-treatment examination process, precisely capture patient needs and aesthetic preferences, visualize potential treatment outcomes, enhance procedural transparency, and enable early risk identification. These technological innovations shift prosthodontics from experience-based to data-driven approaches, thereby enhancing patient satisfaction, optimizing treatment outcomes, and fostering the harmonious development of clinician-patient relationships.

Key words: Digital technology, Prosthodontics, Clinician-patient communication
