Guided surgery is a technique in dentistry that is less invasive, faster and with exact precision for working on dental implants. Discover what it consists of and its benefits.
What is guided surgery?
It is a procedure that, thanks to current technological and dental advances, allows the dental professional specialized in oral surgery and implantology to develop a treatment for the insertion of dental implants with a less invasive technique for the patient.
This technique is performed by scanning the patient’s oral cavity using 3D software to plan the exact place where the dental implants should be inserted.
This software will create a surgical guide for the surgeon on the day of the intervention, without the need to make incisions for the placement of dental implants.
Benefits of guided surgery for the dentist and the patient
- By planning with the specialized software, the dentist can better study the anatomy of the oral cavity, making the placement of dental implants more precise and accurate.
- No incisions are made and therefore there are no surgical stitches.
- The duration of the intervention is much shorter, more comfortable for the patient and therefore we avoid a much faster post-operative period without pain and inflammation.
Undoubtedly, nowadays, with the technological advances that we have at Clínica Ilzarbe, getting a dental implant is not what it used to be.
