  • Title: Using digitally coded healing abutments and an intraoral scanner to fabricate implant-supported, cement-retained restorations.
    Author: Nayyar N, Yilmaz B, McGlumphy E.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 2013 Apr; 109(4):210-5. PubMed ID: 23566600.
    Abstract:
    The accuracy of conventional impression materials and stone dies has been a consistent challenge for clinicians. As an alternative, intraoral scanning technology has the potential to resolve this problem. This clinical report describes the step-by-step technique necessary to scan digitally coded healing abutments with an intraoral scanner and generate implant abutments and cement-retained restorations without the use of impression materials, dental stone, or implant impression copings and analogs.
