Abstract
Implant placement in close proximity with adverse angulations may result in difficulty with impression making. With the lock surface function provided by intraoral scanning software programs, the severely tilted adjacent implants can be digitized one by one without interfering with the accuracy of digital cast. This article presents a straightforward digital impression technique for severely mesiodistally tilted adjacent implants in a clinical case. This article is protected by copyright.
