Abstract
Success in full-mouth implant rehabilitation requires clear and concise communication between the dentist and the dental technician. It is the dentist’s responsibility to provide a complete prescription of what is required and the dental technician’s responsibility to ensure that the restoration is completed according to that prescription.
The clinician should provide accompanying information such as accurate impressions, jaw relation records and a facebow transfer.
The technician should provide accurate diagnostic and master casts together with attention to detail at each subsequent step so that chair-time is reduced for the treating clinician.
Developing a strong working relationship and harbouring a philosophy of teamwork will allow completion of treatment predictably and efficiently.
This chapter discusses three materials that are commonly used for full-arch implant rehabilitation from a laboratory perspective.
