Abstract
A three-dimensional model using light-cured resin has been developed, and it has become possible to perform simulated surgery on the model.
This model was applied to two clinical cases of dental implant in the maxilla with a large number of missing teeth.
The position of the maxillary sinus and complex alveolar bone morphology could be grasped by using 3-D model. The model allows to decide precise position, direction, type, and surgerical method for implantation.
