Rapid realization of an implant-retained craniofacial prosthesis with a secure fit for an active life is essential to restore quality of life. Osseointegrated implants are commonly used for maxillofacial rehabilitation. The precise positioning of these implants is more difficult in cases of reduced bone availability, but it enables anaplastologists to achieve an unobtrusive restoration.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>After computed tomography (CT) scans of 13 cadaver heads, 104 craniomaxillofacial (CMF) implants were digitally planned.
