How does X-guide work?

How do we use X-Guide? Navigated surgery X-Guide for dental implant placement is similar to using a GPS whilst driving. This state-of-the-art technology allows us to translate the digital treatment planed on 3D CT scans in the computer directly to the patient´s mouth in real time with great precision.

How much does an X NAV cost?

The cost varies from $300 to $1,200 per case. The literature clearly shows that dentists are not as accurate and precise when they place implants freehand compared with any form of guided surgery.

What are surgical guides used for?

What is a Surgical Guide? A surgical guide helps dentists place dental implants properly and in the right locations. These guides are developed by imaging software that creates a remapped plan, which aims to create a seamless dental implant process.

How accurate is placing dental implants with a CBCT based printed guide?

RESULTS. The results of the implant positioning errors calculated by CBCT and casts were as follows. The means for CBCT analyses were: angle deviation: 4.74 ± 2.06°, coronal deviation: 1.37 ± 0.80 mm, and apical deviation: 1.77 ± 0.86 mm.

What is Navident?

Navident is an affordable and easy-to-use navigation system which provides real-time precision guidance for increased accuracy within 0.5mm of the treatment plan*. The system offers better visibility and accessibility, and plans can be modified at any time, even during treatment.

What is guided implant surgery?

Guided dental implant surgery is when the dentist utilizes advanced machinery and imaging technology to “guide” or aid them to manufacture and place dental implants more efficiently, precisely and accurately.

How much does a surgical guide cost?

Milled or lab-fabricated surgical guides can cost anywhere between $250 and $1,000 depending on the complexity of the case.

How many degrees can be corrected utilizing angulated screw channel technology?

The angulated screw channel (ASC) gives you the option to place the screw access hole anywhere between 0° to 25° in a 360° radius. That means you can now perform a screw-retained restoration in almost any situation — without the risks associated with excess cement.

Why would a dentist use a surgical stent during implant surgery?

The purpose of stent is to preview the definitive restoration and its relationship to adjacent structures, to communicate the restoration planned by the Prosthodontist to the surgeon, to reduce osteotomy and to locate healing screws at the time of second stage surgery [2].

What is a surgical stent for dental implants?

[2] A stent is an appliance used for radiographic evaluation of height and width of the available bone during treatment planning for implant placement or during surgical procedures to provide site for optimum implant placement.

What is the ADA code for surgical guide?

D6190: Radiographic/surgical implant index. The objective is to guide the surgeon of the position of implant, who can then generate articulated models ad dies for fabrication of abutment.

What is the success rate of a dental implant?

A dental implant is a surgical component that interfaces with the bone of the jaw or skull to support a dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, denture, facial prosthesis or to act as an orthodontic anchor. 90\%–95\% has been reported as the success rate of implants over the 10 years.
