Abstract

The purpose of this technical report was to describe a method for the fabrication of a custom tray with landmark structures to coordinate cone beam computed tomography and scan data for use in guided implant surgery in patients with numerous artifact-causing metal prostheses. The fabricated custom tray can be used to coordinate cone beam computed tomography data and scan data from the dentition, as well as to fabricate the prostheses.
