Multifunctional Guide for Implant Placement, Impressions, and an Occlusal Index for Fixed Complete Dentures

摘要

This article proposes an approach to simplify the steps and reduce fabrication time for fixed implant-supported complete dentures. A multifunctional guide can function as a surgical template during implant placement and provides a framework for the definitive impression and occlusal registration. It therefore enables immediate or early loading of dental implants in full-arch rehabilitations.
