A method of locating a dental implant analog in a model of a patient's mouth for use in creating a tooth prosthesis, comprising: scanning at least a portion of the patient's mouth to generate scan data, the scanned portion of the patient's mouth including teeth and an attachment member, the attachment member including at least one informational marker indicating the location of a dental implant installed in the patient's mouth; creating a three-dimensional computer model of at least a portion of the patient's mouth using the scan data, the three-dimensional computer model including (i) virtual teeth that correspond with the teeth in the patient's mouth, (ii) a virtual bore at a position based on the at least one informational marker, and (iii) at least one virtual guide strut (110a', 110b', 110c') positioned adjacent to the virtual teeth and spaced from the virtual bore; fabricating, using a fabrication machine, a physical model of the at least a portion of the patient's mouth based on the three-dimensional computer model, the physical model including (i) a bore (100") corresponding to the virtual bore, and (ii) at least one guide strut (110a", 110b", 110c") corresponding to the at least one virtual guide strut (110a', 110b', 110c'); and, coupling the dental implant analog to a placement jig (210, 310) including a base having an upper surface (213a, 313a) and a lower surface (213b, 313b), the placement jig (210, 310) including at least one guide strut receiving feature (214a, 314a), wherein the at least one guide strut (110a", 110b", 110c") and the placement jig (210, 310) are to be used in positioning the dental implant analog within the bore (100") of the physical model at a position and an orientation corresponding to the location and the orientation of the dental implant in the patient's mouth, wherein once the placement jig assembly is registered on the modified physical model, the lower surface (213b, 313b) of the base of the placement jig (210, 310) is spaced apart from the bore (100"). scanning at least a portion of the patient's mouth to generate scan data, the scanned portion of the patient's mouth including teeth and an attachment member, the attachment member including at least one informational marker indicating the location of a dental implant installed in the patient's mouth; creating a three-dimensional computer model of at least a portion of the patient's mouth using the scan data, the three-dimensional computer model including (i) virtual teeth that correspond with the teeth in the patient's mouth, (ii) a virtual bore at a position based on the at least one informational marker, and (iii) at least one virtual guide strut (110a', 110b', 110c') positioned adjacent to the virtual teeth and spaced from the virtual bore; fabricating, using a fabrication machine, a physical model of the at least a portion of the patient's mouth based on the three-dimensional computer model, the physical model including (i) a bore (100") corresponding to the virtual bore, and (ii) at least one guide strut (110a", 110b", 110c") corresponding to the at least one virtual guide strut (110a', 110b', 110c'); and, coupling the dental implant analog to a placement jig (210, 310) including a base having an upper surface (213a, 313a) and a lower surface (213b, 313b), the placement jig (210, 310) including at least one guide strut receiving feature (214a, 314a), wherein the at least one guide strut (110a", 110b", 110c") and the placement jig (210, 310) are to be used in positioning the dental implant analog within the bore (100") of the physical model at a position and an orientation corresponding to the location and the orientation of the dental implant in the patient's mouth, wherein once the placement jig assembly is registered on the modified physical model, the lower surface (213b, 313b) of the base of the placement jig (210, 310) is spaced apart from the bore (100").
