Abstract
|
|
|
|
In this case, the impression surface of the existing denture was scanned and was inverted three-dimensionally to express the residual ridge form. Implant planning was performed on the superimposed data of the CT with the scanned image of the denture with radiopaque markers attached. At the day of surgery, customized abutments fabricated in accordance with the form of the gingival margin were linked with fixtures and temporary restorations were set. In the process of fabricating the final prosthesis after the osseointegration of implant fixture, the intraoral scan images at abutment level were merged with images of the abutments scanned and stored before implant surgery. By fabricating the final prosthesis with the abutments obtained by merging can increase the marginal fitness of the final prosthesis and simplify the clinical process.
