Why it matters for dental

For labs and practices printing implant-supported interim prostheses, build angle and connector geometry now have quantified effects on fit accuracy; early adoption of the optimal parameters can reduce intraoral adjustments and remake rates.

Key points

  • Peer-reviewed study in Journal of Dentistry (Jan 2027) measures the effect of build angle and intraarch connector design on the trueness and fit of additively manufactured complete-arch implant-supported interim fixed prostheses.
  • Authors provide experimental data comparing multiple connector designs and build orientations on accuracy outcomes.
  • Findings target clinicians and labs producing implant-supported interim prostheses via additive manufacturing.
  • No effective date or implementation deadline is stated; the paper is a research study scheduled for publication.
