Preoperative planning and implant placement can be optimized using implant planning software followed by the creation of an individual surgical guide. Alongside clinical advantages of using guided surgery, a variability in the accuracy of implant position has been reported. This variability is even more substantial in fully edentulous patients and attributed to errors from intrinsic and extrinsic sources. The aim of this paper is to discuss the potential process errors and present two digital data registration protocols to be implemented in fully edentulous patients. The suggested protocols are aimed to improve accuracy of data acquisition, data superimposition on planning software, and therefore treatment outcome as well.
