Guided Implant Surgery - A Predictable And Safer Approach

Guided dental implant surgery is when the dentist utilizes advanced machinery and imaging technology to ¿guide¿ or aid them to manufacture and place dental implants more efficiently, precisely and accurately. If you only receive one or two implants and did not receive bone or tissue grafts, recovery can take place in as little as 1-2 days. If you receive many dental implants and needed any grafts, the recovery time can take closer to a week or two. In guided surgery cases, CBCT scanning and digital intraoral impressions are used to generate a virtual representation of the patient's jaw and oral anatomy. This is utilized to develop a digital treatment plan in which the exact position of the implant is determined in advance of treatment.
