Various treatment concepts have been presented for the edentulous mandible. Manufacturing tension‐free and precisely fitting bars on dental implants was previously a great challenge in prosthetic dentistry and required great effort. Modern computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing technology in combination with some clinical modifications of the established workflow enables the clinician to achieve precise results in a very efficient way. The innovative five‐step concept is presented in a clinical case.
