About

A triple function scan Body were done on healed dental implant, thus simplifying the workflow for full arch cases and reducing the number of visits to only 3 visits. In this technique, scan bodies were utilized for implant position scanning, facial scan alignment and as stoppers for jaw relation capturing as scan bodies were used as stoppers for jaw relation registration.

Full description

The present article describes a novel technique for merging a patient's facial scan with implant scan body and in the same time utilizing the same scan body for recording the jaw relation in only one visit. As a result, a facially driven full-arch implant-supported interim prosthesis can be fabricated first followed by the final restoration in a simplified approach. The aim of this study is to determine whether there is a difference between virtual design and reality using scan body technique (triple function scan body which reflects the accuracy of the scanning protocol. The null hypothesis established that there was consistency between the virtual design and prosthesis in patient's mouth. The scan body was placed in the edentulous arch in the jaw scan step so that bite registration would be easier for the intraoral scanner (IOS) in order to be able to capture both the teeth of the antagonist and part of the scan body in the edentulous jaw simultaneously.
