Abstract
Currently, appropriate access to the abutment screw within cement-retained implant restorations is determined using labor-intensive techniques. The introduction of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacture technology has facilitated a digitized fabrication process to yield a template that can enhance the accuracy of drilling a screw channel. This article describes the method used to create these guide templates by using advanced dental design programs and machining.
