Presurgical planning with CT-derived fabrication of surgical guides.
نویسنده
چکیده
As implant dentistry is evolving toward accelerated treatment protocols, with immediate or delayed functional and nonfunctional loading, the importance of presurgical planning becomes paramount. The paradigm for restorative-driven implant placement works best when templates are used to transfer information from the desired plan to the surgical reality. The advent of computed tomography (CT) imaging, and CT-derived surgical templates allow for clinically significant improvements in accuracy, time efficiency, and reduction in surgical error, benefiting the patient, surgeon, restorative dentist, and the laboratory. Continued advances in the state-of-the-art software applications that enable enhanced planning give clinicians the vision necessary to deliver the desired results, while serving as an excellent communication tool between all members of the implant team. This article illustrates the advantages of using CT scan-based templates through various clinical presentations. Procedures were illustrated for single and multiple tooth applications in both mandibular and maxillary arches.

متن کاملVirtual Surgical Planning in Orthognathic Surgery
Computer-aided surgical simulation has greatly enhanced the efficiency and accuracy of orthognathic surgery for correction of dentofacial deformities. Virtual surgical planning (VSP) improves the efficiency of the presurgical work-up and provides an opportunity to illustrate the multidimensional correction at the dental and skeletal level. VSP provides preoperative insight into the surgical int...
متن کاملAccuracy of drilling guides for transfer from three-dimensional CT-based planning to placement of zygoma implants in human cadavers.
The accuracy of surgical drilling guides was assessed for placement of zygoma implants. Six zygoma fixtures of length 45 mm (Nobel Biocare, Göteborg, Sweden) were placed in three formalin-fixed human cadavers using surgical drilling guides. The fabrication of these custom-made drilling guides was based on three-dimensional computerized tomography (3D-CT) data for the maxillary-zygomatic complex...
