Guided Surgery and Digital Workflow in Dental Implantology
Guided surgery represents a major advancement in dental implantology, offering increased precision, optimized planning, and an enhanced patient experience. This approach relies on the use of advanced digital tools to plan and execute procedures with millimetric accuracy. By combining 3D imaging, computer-aided design (CAD), and 3D printing or milling, you benefit from unmatched predictability and a reduction in surgical risks.
The Digital Workflow: A Revolution in Implantology
Integrating a digital workflow into implantology transforms your practice and involves several key steps:
-
Patient data acquisition: The use of intraoral scanners and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) allows for a highly accurate digital replica of the patient’s oral anatomy.
-
Virtual planning: Using specialized software, implants are virtually positioned based on anatomical structures and prosthetic requirements.
-
Surgical guide fabrication: Planning data is then used to design and 3D print custom surgical guides, ensuring precise implant placement during the procedure.
-
Implant surgery: By following the surgical guide, the procedure is carried out with maximum accuracy, minimizing incisions and improving patient post-operative comfort.
-
Restoration: In certain cases, a temporary prosthesis can be placed immediately after implant insertion, accelerating both aesthetic and functional rehabilitation.
