A technique for registering digital dental casts onto cone beam computed tomography scans with excessive metallic artifacts.

This article describes a method of integrating digital dental casts into cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans in virtual implant planning in situations with an excessive number of metal artifacts. This technique requires the use of a prefabricated registration tray to provide a common landmark; is noninvasive, minimally time-consuming, and cost-effective; and requires only a single registration and minimal exposure to radiation.
