A surgical guide has brought about a complete revolution in the dental industry. The drill guide surgery helps the dentist to place the dental implants precisely and in the exact location.
The replication of the intraoral setting of the patient is done with the help of the surgical guide. The dental surgeon can drill the implants into the bone accurately with the help of a surgical guide. These guides ensure that the dental implant is placed at the precise angulation and location. These guides are made from clear acrylic and they fit exactly on the gum tissue and the teeth. The drill guide surgery template fabrication is based on certain design concepts and they are non-limiting design, partially limiting design, and completely limiting design. For creating a surgical guide, the impression and 3D images of the surgical impact site are taken and this data is transferred to software for the development of the guide. The guide is placed on the patient's teeth and then the dentist zeros down the area where the implant has to be placed.
The drill guide surgery is useful when the implant placement has to be done at difficult sites that are not visible to the dentist. Not just for the difficult sites but these guides can be used for all types of dental implant surgeries as it helps the dentist place the implant accurately and also the surgery time is reduced to a great extent with these guides.
In the case of medically compromised patients, the dentist needs to take a call about carrying out the dental implant surgery.
The impression and 3D images of the surgical impact site are taken and this data is transferred to software for the development of the guide. The assessment of the anatomy of the patient is done and the treatment plan has to be decided. How the guide has to be supported is something that needs to be kept in mind while designing a surgical guide. We have certified technicians who have expertise in making the guide as per the specifications given by the dentist.
The guide is placed on the patient's teeth by the dentist and then the dentist zeros down the area where the implant has to be placed. The implant is then placed at the precise location and the time taken for the process reduces due to the guide.
