A New Generation of Tools for Fully Guided Surgery

A new generation of tools for Fully Guided Surgery (Theory & Demonstration )

Workshop

A new generation of computer guidance for implant placement has been developed that addresses many of the limitations of previous systems and makes computer guidance a practical surgical tool for implant dentistry. This course and demonstration will introduce new workflows including surgical and restorative tools that simplify and streamline the process of diagnostic wax-up, surgical planning, restorative planning, surgical guide design, provisional restoration design and the tools to efficiently perform the surgical and restorative procedures.

This course will cover the elements necessary for data collection and planning 3 rd generation fully guided implant placement. Participants will become familiar with the surgical tooling and the placement of implants with these new tools.
