  • Title: Fixed complete denture using implants and computer-guided technology.
    Author: Abbo B.
    Journal: Dent Today; 2009 Jun; 28(6):88, 90, 92-3. PubMed ID: 19554911.
    Abstract:
    An alternative approach to managing the completely edentulous patient with implants and a fixed complete denture has been described. A trial complete denture was fabricated, a CT scan with a double scan technique was used with specialized surgical planning software to preplan the surgery and produce an accurate stereolithography surgical guide providing all the necessary information to fabricate a cast with the desired position/angulations of the implants. This enabled the fabrication of a fixed complete denture prior to the surgical procedure with the insertion of the prosthesis immediately after the surgery was performed.
