Straumann STARconcept: From scan to smile in FP1 full-arch rehabilitation

Guided surgery is key in full-arch implant dentistry, but accuracy and workflow can be challenging. Straumann STARconcept FP1 uses tooth-shape–driven planning to link prosthetic design and guided surgery, enabling efficient, esthetic and predictable immediate full-arch loading.
