Abstract
Currently, the preparation of surgical templates is a multistage process that engages the restorative dentist, dental laboratory, and external computed tomography center. This new method for production of templates and guides, as well as data transfer protocol, significantly simplifies commonly used methods and removes many of the complications inherent in them. A case report of an implantation procedure carried out with the new protocol is presented. Further studies and comparisons with other guided implant surgery methods are needed to establish the advantage of this novel method.
