This report describes a step-by-step staged digital protocol for the terminal dentition patient using a Provi-guide. This protocol will improve implant placement accuracy, shorten treatment time, and assure an implant-supported fixed complete denture immediately loaded after extraction of the remaining terminal dentition and complete edentulism. The novelty of the Provi-guide technique described is that it serves 2 objectives: (1) a nonlimiting surgical guide, and (2) a fixed interim prosthesis. Implants placed in the described digital stagged protocol can serve both the interim and the final prosthesis.
