Maxillary and mandibular implant rehabilitation using a completely digital workflow: A technique.

Complete arch implant scanning is a technique-sensitive procedure involving challenges acquiring the data, using an intraoral scanner, and aligning the obtained scans. A novel technique using a fixed custom scan body with a specific geometry is presented to allow virtual alignment and articulation at the optimal occlusal vertical dimension and centric relation position. The technique is accomplished by relating the geometric position of scan bodies, the interim prosthesis, and the custom scan body with a completely digital workflow.
