Welcome to Asheville Periodontics, where Dr. Susanna Goggin and our dedicated team are committed to providing state-of-the-art periodontal care. One of the cutting-edge procedures we offer is guided implant surgery. Let’s dive into this innovative technique, exploring its benefits, the process, and why it’s a game-changer for dental implant procedures.
Understanding Guided Implant Surgery:
Guided implant surgery, is a precise and highly advanced method for placing dental implants. It utilizes computer technology and 3D imaging to plan and execute implant placement with unparalleled accuracy.
The Benefits of Guided Implant Surgery:
- Precision: Guided implant surgery allows for precise planning, ensuring that implants are placed exactly where they should be for optimal function and aesthetics.
- Minimized Discomfort: Due to the accuracy of the procedure, guided implant surgery typically involves less trauma to surrounding tissues, resulting in reduced discomfort and faster healing times.
- Predictable Results: With careful planning and execution, guided implant surgery provides predictably successful outcomes, minimizing the risk of complications.
The Guided Implant Surgery Process:
- Diagnostic Imaging: The process begins with 3D imaging (typically through a cone-beam CT scan) of the patient’s jaw. This creates a detailed 3D model of the jawbone and surrounding structures.
- Treatment Planning: Using specialized software, Dr. Goggin can precisely plan the implant placement. This includes selecting the appropriate implant size and angulation based on the patient’s anatomy and restoration goals.
- Surgical Guide Fabrication: A custom surgical guide is then created based on the treatment plan. This guide serves as a template during the actual surgery, ensuring that the implants are placed in the planned positions with utmost accuracy.
- Implant Placement: During the surgery, Dr. Goggin uses the surgical guide to guide the implant placement process, following the pre-determined plan with precision.
- Prosthetic Restoration: After the implants have integrated with the bone, prosthetic components such as crowns or dentures can be attached to complete the restoration.
