_Case report
A middle-aged male patient had an old fibrereinforced anterior bridge. The abutment teeth of
the old bridge had severe caries and the structures
of the bridge had reached the end of their lifespan.
The bridge was removed. Dr Juha-Pekka Lyytikk
(Hammas-Pulssi dental clinic) extracted the teeth

sections when using the 3Shape scanner for implants. A normal gingival mask and high-quality
plaster models are sufficient.
The starting point for CAD/CAM work is a carefully filled out order form in a software program
(Fig. 3). The order form specifies the work in question
and the material to be used for manufacture. The
form also specifies the milling centre to be used for
manufacture, as well as the abutment library to be
used. Moreover, the order form links specific design
parameters to the work in question.
Next scanning abutments (Turun Teknohammas)
were fixed on the model with screws (Fig. 4). This
ensured that the position of the implants remained
precise during the entire process. The scanning
abutments on the model defined the position of
the implants in 3-D space. The software compares
the scanning results to the files in the abutment
library (Fig. 5).
