Guided Implant Surgery for All-on-4 and Zygomatic ImplantsComputer-Planned Precision Placement
- Computer-guided implant surgery uses 3D CBCT imaging and GBP/CAM surgical guides to plan and execute implant placement with sub-millimetre accuracy.
How Does Computer-Guided Implant Surgery Work?
Computer-guided implant surgery works in four steps: a 3D CBCT scan maps the jaw, implant positions are planned digitally in specialised software, a surgical guide is 3D-printed from that plan, and the guide is then used in the mouth to place each implant exactly where it was planned.
1. 3D CBCT scan - full volumetric imaging of the jaw
2. Digital treatment planning - implant positions mapped in specialised software (Nobel Clinician, Straumann coDiagnostix)
3. Surgical guide fabrication - 3D-printed guide with metal sleeves for each implant position
4. Guided surgery - guide placed in the mouth; implants inserted through the guide sleeves
Questions about this procedure?
What Are the Benefits of Guided Surgery Over Freehand Placement?
Guided surgery improves on freehand placement in accuracy, safety, and speed. The pre-planned trajectory keeps implants clear of nerves, sinuses, and adjacent roots, and some cases can even be done without opening a flap, which speeds up healing.
- Accuracy: Sub-millimetre deviation, tighter than typical freehand placement
- Safety: Pre-planned trajectory avoids nerves, sinuses, and adjacent roots
- Speed: Shorter surgery time (pre-planned positions)
- Predictability: What's planned is what's delivered
- Flapless option: Some cases can be performed without opening a flap (faster healing)
