Technique enhances implant placement and interim crown fit using guided implant planning, suggesting improved patient outcomes.
The present technique describes a computer-guided workflow for the immediate implant placement and interim restoration of a previously manufactured screw-retained interim implant-supported crown. As the implant position determined in the computer-aided implant planning was used to fabricate the interim implant-supported crown, the surgical implant guide incorporated a guide to orient the implant, enabling the orientation and fit of the interim crown. This technique aimed to optimize clinical time, enhance predictability, minimize intraoperative adjustments, and improve patient experience.
