Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: Objective: Answer the question: Does the digital workflow optimize the treatment of dentists when compared to the conventional workflow? Materials and methods: The searches took place in three databases: Cochrane, Scielo, and Pubmed. Three reviewers performed the selection, data extraction, and quality and risk of bias assessments independently. The initial search identified 7858 articles, of which 31 were initially included, following the inclusion and exclusion criteria. After reading these studies, 16 articles were excluded, totaling 15 articles included. Results: Most authors point out that digital flow reduced the clinical time compared to the conventional one, in addition to the fact that most of the included articles used scanning as a technology, emphasizing better recording of details. As a counterpoint, they consider the commercial value to be more expensive. In terms of the risk of bias, the factors that had the highest score were the absence of sample calculation and information on operator calibration.Conclusion: Such technologies improve the clinical routine of the dental surgeon; the main technologies reported were scanners, printers, and milling machines, indicating that this area is of great scientific and commercial interest; however, it is a very young area in dentistry that needs more research.
