The CrescoTi Precision method: description of a simplified method to fabricate titanium superstructures with passive fit to osseointegrated implants

Casting distortion and inadequate handling in the dental laboratory are 2 factors that can cause misfit between a cast framework and the implant analogs in the master cast. This article describes the CrescoTi Precision procedure, which has been developed for correction of misfit between cast titanium frameworks and supporting dental implants. The simplicity and accuracy of the procedure appear to demonstrate technical progress toward obtaining optimal precision of fit of the superstructure components, thereby eliminating stress forces that may be transformed to the peri-implant bone.
