Building on its Grammetry™ full-arch scan body system, ROE designed the ArchBridge scan bodies and libraries around the abutment attachment itself. Each of the six scan bodies has its own geometry, giving the scanner a distinct reference point at every position. The scan bodies press-fit directly onto the overdenture abutments, and tactile seating confirms when they are ready to scan. A sandblasted titanium...
