Abstract

Artifacts from metal restorations can make it challenging or impossible to accurately orient a digital dental cast to cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan data for virtual implant planning. A dual scan technique is described that uses an alginate impression with fiducial markers in a stock tray to create a digital dental cast that is precisely oriented to the scan in the same patient coordinate system for surgical guide design.
