Best-practice guidance for prosthodontic procedures.
A standardised approach was needed to simplify indirect restoration workflows. 3M experts understood this challenge, and worked with clinical experts to develop Success Simplified to consolidate procedure stages into seven simple steps, while providing best practice recommendations for every indication.
The evidence-based recommendations provide repeatable best practices to follow for complex procedures. Success Simplified adds structure to everyday workflows, helping to make patient outcomes more predictable. The program enhances a clinician’s ability to make the right decisions, leading to improved practice management and higher patient satisfaction.
