When acquiring the data for a project on implants, acquiring the implant itself is problematic. It's not like a stump or a piece of stone model. The implant connections/interfaces are normally small and metallic.
<!--T:9-->
Moreover, the fitting has to be mechanically perfect, with no margin of error.
<!--T:10-->
To solve this problem, the implant connection is not directly scanned but an '''Implant Marker or Scan Body''' is used in its stead. A Scan Body is a specific object, designed to be scanned, which fits exactly over the implant.
<!--T:11-->
The scan of the implant marker itself is not enough: its resulting data will be used to compute the exact position of the implant interface. In order to carry out this operation, an [[Implant_Library|Implant Library]] is needed .
<!--T:12-->
The alignment to the implant library can be performed in the CAD software. However, using an implant library for Exocad's Platform, the user can perform this operation directly in the scanning software OpticalRevEng Dental, in order to get better results.
