Introduction<br />

This case demonstrates the optical scanning of <strong>Glidewell</strong> Laboratories’ purpose-made Inclusive ®<br />

Scanning Abutments utilizing the iTero digital scanning system (Align Technology; San Jose, Calif.)<br />

with software version 4.0. Digital data was used in conjunction with laboratory CAD/CAM planning to<br />

fabricate custom all-ceramic implant abutments and a final 4-unit fixed prosthesis. The abutments and<br />

fixed prosthesis were fabricated using advanced computer-aided milling technology.<br />

Editor’s note: Cadent Inc. (Carlstadt, N.J.) was acquired by Align Technology (San Jose, Calif.) in May 2011.<br />
