This report describes the fabrication of a custom healing stent for second stage implant surgery in advanced jaw reconstruction. Postoperative computed tomography data and digital dental implant component libraries were used to create a custom healing stent to fit connected implant abutments without the need for a definitive abutment impression. After segmentation of the dental implants and importation into a computer-aided design software program, the appropriate digital implant componentry was aligned to the dental implants. The healing stent was then virtually designed, rapid prototyped, and then converted into a biocompatible and sterilizable material by using conventional laboratory methods. The methods presented offer clinicians the opportunity to insert a healing stent at second stage implant surgery with no need to create a stent or obtain an impression during the procedure.

该报告描述了定制的愈合支架的制造，该支架用于晚期颌骨重建中的第二阶段植入物手术。术后计算机断层扫描数据和数字牙科种植体组件库用于创建定制的愈合支架，以适合连接的种植体基台，而无需确定的基台印模。在对牙科植入物进行分割并将其导入计算机辅助设计软件程序后，将适当的数字植入物部件与牙科植入物对齐。然后，对康复支架进行虚拟设计，快速原型化，然后通过使用常规实验室方法将其转化为可生物相容和可灭菌的材料。
