LESEPROBE

QDT is known to feature the best of the best in dental technology and esthetic dentistry, always pushing the boundaries of innovation and underscoring the value of clinical mastery. This year’s volume includes a record 20 articles, 5 of which are published online only to make the learning experience more dynamic and increase accessibility. While the articles span a variety of topics—from macrophotography to single-tooth rehabilitation to full-mouth reconstruction and so much more—the intersection of analog and digital approaches lies at the heart of the issue. Exceptional clinical and laboratory workflows leverage the advantages of both analog artistry and digital precision, and the articles in QDT 2026 showcase the fantastic outcomes that are possible when analog and digital are intertwined.
