Type II dentinogenesis imperfecta is an autosomal dominant condition that affects dentin which increases the complexity of the predictability of restorative treatment. Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) technologies permit the creation of highly accurate devices and dental prostheses that simplify the planning and execution of advanced implant surgery and full-mouth rehabilitation. This clinical report presents the interdisciplinary management of a 20-year-old male with dentinogenesis imperfecta type II. In this article, a combination of analog and CAD-CAM technologies were used to fabricate devices that aided planning, assisted intermaxillary fixation and implant placement, served as interim prostheses, and permitted the accurate establishment of esthetics and occlusion of the definitive full-arch prostheses.
