This paper presents a method for the digital transfer of the upper maxillary arch position using a facebow, a transfer table, and a reference block with a CAD application without requiring physical casts mounted with articulating gypsum. This technique facilitates the prosthetic digital workflow when the impression is made via intraoral scanning, to obtain the placement of the maxillary arch in the anatomical reference planes and in relation to the axes of rotation of the mandibular movements.
