Integrating jaw motion tracking and a maxillary complete denture in a digital workflow for immediate mandibular...

A digital workflow for the simultaneous rehabilitation of a fully edentulous maxilla and a partially edentulous posterior mandible requiring immediate implant loading is described. To provide stable occlusal support during mandibular surgery, a maxillary interim complete denture was fabricated in advance. Given the risk of occlusal wear, monolithic zirconia was selected for the fabrication of the definitive maxillary denture. To account for zirconia's limited adjustability, jaw motion tracking was used to ensure precise bilateral balanced occlusion. This technique enabled accurate functional occlusal design and contributed to predictable long-term prosthetic stability.
