26 I I case report _ guided surgery _Fabrication of the drilling template and immediate restoration The position of the implant determined during 3-Dimplantplanningwastransferredtothedrilling template in the dental laboratory using the gonyX coordinate table. The guiding sleeves with depth stops from the CAMLOG Guide System were pre- cisely bonded on to the scanning template, thereby converting the scanning template into a drilling template (Fig. 8). Inordertofabricatetheimmediaterestoration,a model was required. Corresponding cavities were incorporated into the cast (Fig. 9). The CAMLOG Guide insertion posts were then used to insert the laboratory analogues into the cast (Fig. 10). It was important here to position the insertion posts with thescrew-retainedlaboratoryanaloguesaccording to the required cam alignment Fig. 11). Figures 12 and 13 show the Vario SR abutments and Vario SR titanium caps on the cast. Alaserscannerwasthenusedtodigitisethecast (Fig. 14). In order to simplify the CAD of the imme- diate restoration, it made sense to superimpose the desired prosthetic situation defined by backward planning over the existing situation (Fig. 15). The design was created with DentalDesigner (3Shape; Figs. 16 & 17). After a suitable milling strategy had beendetermined,thedatawastransferredtoafive- axismillingmachine.Atooth-colouredPMMAblank was used as the material of choice (Figs. 18–20).
