Abstract: A customized resorbable three-dimensional scaffold for oral and maxillofacial bone grafting involves merging two sets of three-dimensional information obtained from a patient, the first set includes three-dimensional bone information and the second set includes three-dimensional teeth and tissue information. The merged information is used to generate a three-dimensional shape of the bone to be regenerated, a three-dimensional position of the missing tooth/teeth, and a three-dimensional model of the customized resorbable three-dimensional scaffold for oral and maxillofacial bone grafting. The three-dimensional model is used to generate the customized resorbable three-dimensional scaffold and resorbable connectors for the customized resorbable three-dimensional scaffold.

Abstract: A method for denture restoration includes steps of generating sets of digital information of a mouth cavity of a person for providing firstly either an orientation appliance or a temporary restoration and subsequently a final restoration. The digital information is generated firstly from the mouth cavity alone and subsequently with the orientation appliance or the temporary restoration within the mouth cavity. The invention also relates to a system for performing this method, and to an orientation appliance and a prosthetic guide to be used in performing the method.
