[Surgical guide for prosthetic technic for Brånemark osseointegrated implants]

Area of Science:

• Dental Implantology
• Prosthodontics
• Oral Surgery

Background:

• Restoring masticatory function requires occlusal stability and aesthetics.
• Achieving optimal prosthetic tooth position is crucial for implant-supported restorations.
• Effective communication between prosthetic and surgical teams is vital.

Purpose of the Study:

• To present the fabrication and application of a resin surgical template for dental implant placement.
• To highlight the role of the surgical template in achieving optimal prosthetic tooth localization.
• To emphasize the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in implant dentistry.

Main Methods:

• Fabrication of a resin surgical template based on a wax-up of the planned restoration.
• Incorporation of titanium rings into the template for precise fixture site indication.
• Utilizing the surgical template for CT scan examination, fixture installation, and post-healing localization.

Main Results:

• The resin surgical template facilitates accurate prosthetic tooth positioning.
• This surgical guide serves as a crucial link between prosthetic and surgical teams throughout treatment.
• The template aids in achieving better functional and aesthetic results in implant prostheses.

Conclusions:

• The presented resin surgical template is a versatile tool for optimizing implant fixture placement.
• Enhanced collaboration between surgical and prosthetic teams, facilitated by the template, leads to improved patient outcomes.
• This approach contributes to the restoration of masticatory system function and esthetics.
