A fully digital workflow to design anterior guidance for an implant-supported single crown using a modified patient-specific motion technique.

ABSTRACT

Current methods for designing anterior guidance of anterior fixed prostheses are either complicated or lack accuracy. The article describes a fully digital workflow to design individualized anterior guidance of an implant-supported single crown by using a modified patient-specific motion technique. The technique aims to optimize the digital occlusal design workflow, thereby improving the occlusal fit and long-term stability of anterior fixed prostheses.
