Improving the accuracy of complete arch implant intraoral digital scans by using horizontal scan bodies with occlusal geometry: A dental technique.

A technique to improve the accuracy of complete arch implant intraoral digital scans and to obtain more accurate virtual casts with them is described. First, 2 complete arch intraoral digital scans were obtained with an intraoral scanner: a multiunit abutment digital scan and an implant digital scan with reusable horizontal intraoral scan bodies (ISBs) placed on the implants. These were previously created by combining the conventional ISBs compatible with the patient's implants with extensional structures with occlusal geometry. Once the digital scans had been acquired, the position of the implants was obtained by superimposing a virtual design of the conventional ISB onto each horizontal ISB of the complete arch implant digital scan. Finally, the virtual cast was obtained by superimposing the complete arch multiunit abutment digital scan on the complete arch implant digital scan.
