The technique described herein uses a single wand that includes both intraoral scanning and intraoral photogrammetry to accurately capture abutment positions as well as soft tissue. This method minimizes the risk of malalignment because the abutment and soft tissue images are combined within one platform. At surgery, implants and multiunit abutments are placed and the abutments are scanned with an intraoral photogrammetry wand. These files are uploaded to the lab technician merges the files with a preoperative digital plan. A prosthesis is then fabricated and placed with no chairside conversion. This method is time-efficient and cost-efficient with no need for the lab technician or restorative dentist to be at implant placement surgery.

Full-arch implant therapy with immediate provisionalization is a popular procedure. Conventionally, chairside conversion of a prefabricated prosthesis or an abutment-level impression is usually required. This case report describes a novel approach to picking up a prefabricated full-arch prosthesis utilizing various digital techniques.
