Abstract

An interim restoration is often used to assess the patient's functional and esthetic needs for implant-supported complete-arch fixed prostheses. A digital protocol for accurately transferring information from the existing dentition to the interim restoration is required. The purpose of this clinical report was to describe a digital workflow to fabricate an interim fixed restoration by using the vertical dimension of occlusion and occlusal relationship from the original dentition to provide an accurate, efficient, and predictable computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) interim complete-arch implant-supported restoration.
