A Practical Approach to Full-Arch Implant Prosthesis Fabrication Using a 3D-Printed Surgical Guide Index.

Abstract

This article presents an efficient method for fabricating a full-arch implant prosthesis within 1 day using a verification index through a 3D-printed surgical guide. The technique involves the use of simple impression copings and laboratory analogs to ensure accurate prosthesis placement. Directly using 3D-printed surgical guides as a verification index simplifies and streamlines the procedure, offering a significant clinical advantage. This approach provides a clinically relevant advancement in prosthodontic practice by demonstrating a practical and instructive approach to enhance treatment outcomes.
