Implant restoration of #25 using digital workflow and surgical guide
Patient has oblique fracture of the palatal cusp of his second left maxillary premolar with a juxtaposed bone margin. After discussing treatment options an implant solution is chosen.
Solutions used: 3Shape TRIOS MOVE, 3Shape Implant Studio
Dr. Crauste – Surgical guides create a safer surgical procedure, reduce operating time and limit post-surgical morbidity.
PREVIEW OF THE CASE
Implant planning. To optimize the positioning of the future implant, the implant-supported crown is designed first in a prosthetic-driven workflow.
Patient communications. Once planning is validated, the patient is invited to see in the software an explanation of the surgical steps of an implant placement.
Pilot drill guide designed and produced. A pilot drill guide is chosen because of the small mesio-distal dimension of the site. For optimal stability, the guide extends to the second molar and support bars are added.
Doctor’s comments regarding workflow. “3Shape solutions enable an effective exchange of information with the patient. In particular, Implant Studio software can serve as a tool for explaining the therapeutic objectives.”
