Analucia Gebler Philippi*,

Abstract

The verification index is indicated to confirm the accuracy of the implant position. To construct a stone index, place the transfers in the master model, add wax to the model to promote adequate spacing between the index and the mucosal tissue. Make a wall with wax, in order to allow pouring of the highprecision stone inside the space. After the crystallization of the stone, remove the index and try it in the patient’s mouth. The index of stone should be adapted and screwed into the mouth accurately.
