ABSTRACT
During intraoral complete-arch digital implant scanning, one of the most technique-sensitive steps is the implant data acquisition and merging of different surface geometry data sets for prototype prosthesis fabrication due to the absence of fixed landmarks. Recently developed extraoral techniques have allowed for an alternative approach for the digital acquisition of implant position in completely edentulous patients. Specifically, extraoral digital scanning of the conversion prosthesis after connecting reverse scan bodies has been proposed as an efficient approach. The reverse scan body protocol digitally simulates the traditional back-pouring technique long utilized in analog workflows. The present article describes a technique for simplifying the digital workflow for the fabrication of passive-fitting definitive prostheses using the reverse scan body concept.
