A technique is described for capturing relative dental implant positions for an implant-supported fixed prosthesis in a completely edentulous arch with a novel implant indexing apparatus that also functions as a scannable verification device. A series of intraoral scans are made to record the contours and occlusal records of the existing prosthetics and soft tissue. The individual scans are aligned by using a dental software program to design either an interim or definitive prosthesis. The technique reduces the time needed to gather the records dental laboratory technicians require to fabricate a complete arch implant-supported prosthesis.
本文描述了一种技术,该技术使用一种新型种植体定位装置来获取无牙颌弓中种植体支持的固定修复体的相对种植体位置,该装置还可作为可扫描的验证设备。进行一系列口内扫描以记录现有修复体和软组织的轮廓及咬合记录。通过使用牙科软件程序对齐各个扫描图像,以设计临时或最终修复体。该技术减少了收集牙科实验室技术人员制作完整牙弓种植体支持修复体所需记录的时间。
