Abstract

Fabrication of Verification Jig for Full Arch Implant Supported Fixed Prosthesis �?¢�?�?��?�?? A Novel Technique

 Dr. Haby Mathew Somson*

Full arch implant supported fixed prosthesis requires precise and passive fit of the framework on the implants which is ensured by using a verification jig on models. After the preparation of models, verifying the accuracy of impressions made using polyvinylsiloxane with splinted copings may be difficult in certain situations where the angulations of implants are not favorable. This article enumerates an innovative method of fabrication of verification jig with pattern resin using open tray impression copings for maxillary and mandibular full arch implant prosthesis. This technique utilizes open tray impression copings on each implant replica on the master models on which pattern resin is adapted in a unique manner with a slot. This method provides easy verification of accuracy of implants intraorally than the conventional techniques.
