Effect of Scan body Design on the Accuracy of the Implant
Position in Implant Supported Prosthesis
This study was conducted to evaluate the accuracy of two types of scan body to
evaluate the accuracy of digital impression of implant.
In this study a resin model was fabricated and four implant was inserted in the canine
and molar area both sides and four standardized long scan bodies were inserted on the
top of implant to make the basic reference digital impression then the four long scan
bodies were replaced by four short scannable healing abutment and scanning was done
then four plastic caps were added above short scannable healing abutment to modify
short scan body and scanning was done.
The comparison between two types of scan bodies was digitally done and the results
showed acceptable high accuracy for both types of scan bodies, however the accuracy
of scannable healing abutment with plastic cap was higher than scannable healing
abutment without plastic cap.
