Editor’s choice

The editor’s choice of this issue is the article “Reverse scan body: A retrospective clinical study with 30 edentulous jaws” authored by Panos Papaspyridakos, published in Journal of Prosthodontics. The authors evaluated the accuracy of fit of full-arch zirconia prostheses fabricated using a fully digital workflow with extraoral scanning with the reverse scan body protocol. They report that all the prostheses showed accurate clinical and radiographic fit, confirming that full-arch zirconia prostheses can be reliably fabricated using extraoral scanning with the reverse scan-body protocol.
