The article analyzes domestic and foreign experience in planning the preparation of oral cavity for prosthetics.
Recently, thanks to the development of computer technology, the possibility of virtual 3D-modeling of the
prosthesis design and its further prototyping has appeared [1; 2; 5]. Digital treatment planning, based on threedimensional imaging procedures, allows you to plan therapy with absolute precision and makes the outcome of
treatment exactly predictable. Analysis of domestic experience shows that one of the most common in the practice
of orthopedic dentistry is the program Blue Sky Plan. Patterns made in the program are easily exported to STL files
and do not require additional processing. The program contains a wide range of implant systems. In foreign
practice, guided surgery from DENTSPLY Implants is very popular, which offers a comprehensive solution for
digital treatment planning and placement of implants based on SIMPLANT software templates.
