Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral Surgery
  • Biomaterials

Background:

  • Accurate spatial positioning of dental implants in bone is a significant challenge in implant dentistry.
  • Various surgical guides exist, but fully limiting guides require highly reliable encoded information to prevent intraoperative deviations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel guided implant surgery protocol combining analog techniques for precise implant placement.
  • To introduce a simplified casting protocol for transferring implant analog position to a surgical guide.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized bone sounding and periapical radiographs to assess bone volume.
  • Developed a simplified casting protocol to transfer implant analog platform position.
  • Fabricated a surgical guide from a stiff vinyl polysiloxane material.

  • Employed a conventional flapless guided implant surgery protocol.

    • Main Results:

    • The combined analog techniques and custom surgical guide facilitated accurate assessment of bone volume.
    • The simplified casting protocol effectively transferred the implant analog position.
    • The vinyl polysiloxane surgical guide enabled precise placement of the implant, abutment, and provisional restoration.

    Conclusions:

    • This combined technique offers a reliable method for precise dental implant placement.
    • The proposed protocol allows for minimally invasive flapless guided implant surgery.
    • The use of a custom vinyl polysiloxane surgical guide enhances accuracy and predictability in implant dentistry.
