Abstract

Rehabilitation of edentulous maxilla is a challenging procedure. This technical report describes a new method to superimpose intraoral optical scanning of edentulous maxilla and the CBCT scan using a modified radiographic template. Digital data obtained can be exported and merged into 3D computer guided surgery software. The described technique can increase the predictability and the precision of complete-arch rehabilitation planned by means of computer-assisted implant surgery.
