Abstract
The importance of a precise surgical template for implant placement cannot be overstated. The radiographic template carries both clinical and radiographic information for the planning of fixture angulation and location. This article describes a systematic approach to the fabrication of a dual-purpose radiographic surgical template. The simple steps result in the accurate transfer of radiographic information to the surgical template with no need for complex equipment or maneuvers. key words: dental implants, implant placement, radiographic template, surgical templateKeywords
