Dry the field, scan the occlusal surfaces first, and capture a few millimetres of soft tissue around every site. Check the bite scan in two places.
In practice
Every case is different, so treat this as a starting point and adapt it to your implant system, your equipment and your team. If something here does not match what you see in your own workflow, ask Y Medic before the case, not during it.
Checklist
