Various methods have been used in imaging, including the use of gutta percha markers, radiopaque teeth, or barium sulfate in acrylic resin. The use of radiopaque gutta percha markers have been used to simulate the alignment of the implants, providing information about the intended placement on the cross‐sectional imaging. These gutta percha markers are then removed, and the radiographic templates further modified to become a surgical template. These templates indicate teeth position but are not precisely defined because the surgeon may have to manually correct the placement of implants upon assessing the imaging.
