“…Compared to previous literature, [10][11][12][13][14] this scanning protocol facilitates accurate superimposition of STL files of complete-arch digital scans and uses all patient-relevant data obtained from the existing interim prostheses to virtually articulate the edentulous arches and fabricate the prototype and definitive prostheses.…”

This article summarizes the clinical steps involved in maxillary and mandibular complete‐arch implant rehabilitation using a complete digital workflow. The maxillary arch was recorded using the double digital scan technique, and the mandibular arch using the triple digital scan technique. The digital protocol used in this case report allowed the recording of implant positions via scan bodies, soft tissues, and, most importantly, the interocclusal relationship in the same visit. A new technique for mandibular digital scan was described that uses soft tissue landmarks by creating windows in the patient's provisional prostheses to superimpose the three digital scans and consequently fabricate and verify the maxillary and mandibular prototype prostheses and definitive complete‐arch zirconia prostheses.
