Abstract: Implant detection and identification are critical aspects of prosthodontic care, particularly in cases where patient records are unavailable. This study evaluates the feasibility of Near Field Communication (NFC) tags embedded within implant-supported crowns to aid in implant identification and also to identify the victims in Forensic Odontology cases. For this a custom-designed NFC chip (5 mm) was incorporated into the prosthetic crown by creating a designated window for its placement in the exocad software. The study assesses the readability, biocompatibility, and durability of the NFC tags under simulated oral conditions. The results demonstrate the potential of NFC technology in improving implant traceability and streamlining prosthodontic management.
