Three‐point sectional‐cast digital method for transferring the interocclusal relationship for full‐mouth rehabilitation of worn dentition

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

For full-mouth rehabilitation of worn dentition, "diagnostic" interim restorations are required to reestablish the interocclusal relationship. It is important but challenging to transfer the interocclusal relationship, and to map the basic form and contour of interim restorations to the final restorations. Alignment of interim restorations and working casts is difficult when using digital workflows because of a lack of consistent hard tissue reference points. The digital workflow presented in this study used a "3-point sectional-cast digital cross-mounting method" to transfer the interocclusal relationship during full-mouth rehabilitation. An intermediate cast was made with 3 interim restorations: 1 on an incisor and 2 on molars. The interocclusal relationship and occlusal morphologies of the diagnostic interim prostheses were transferred and aligned to working casts using the 3-point sectional casts.
