In the realm of modern dentistry, the combination of cutting-edge technology and clinical expertise has ushered in a new era of dental implant therapy: 3D printed surgical guides. This revolutionary tool empowers Dr. Dan Thousand and Dr. Katelyn Fleming to guide you through the implant placement process with unparalleled precision. This is made possible thanks to the seamless integration of intraoral scans with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans.
The journey begins with a comprehensive capture of your oral structures. The intraoral scan creates a three-dimensional digital representation of your teeth and gums, while the CBCT scan delves into the intricate structure of your jawbone. These two distinct pieces of the digital puzzle are harmoniously merged to create a detailed picture of your oral anatomy.
Dr. Thousand and Dr. Fleming utilize this amalgamation of data to construct a virtual implant guide. This guide serves as a meticulous blueprint, digitally mapping out every detail of the implant placement procedure. This level of accuracy not only enhances the predictability of the process but also minimizes risks and ensures optimal outcomes for your future crown. Once the implant is planned, we will 3D print a surgical guide customized to your unique oral anatomy. This guide is crafted with precision to either clip onto your teeth or securely lock into the bone. The guide becomes a tangible extension of the digital plan, providing a real-time navigation tool during the implant procedure.
What sets this technology apart is its ability to transform digital planning into tangible reality. Our periodontists will actually print a guide that mirrors the digital plan, ensuring a direct translation from virtual strategy to physical execution. This state-of-the-art approach to dental implant therapy is a testament to the commitment to excellence exhibited by Periodontal Associates.
