When a patient has to undergo an implantology procedure, if his clinical situation allows it, in our practice we always use computer guided implantology (CGI).also called guided surgery or guided dental surgery).
This technique allows implantology procedures to be carried out with a minimum of effort.even higher level of precision, making a less invasive surgery and, consequently, with a lighter post-operative course.
Why is guided surgery more precise?
Before the operation we use a special software and a 3D CT scan to create a full-scale model of the mouth of the patient with the implants already fixed.
Being able to carry out - albeit virtually - the operation before the patient undergoes the operation we are able to anticipate possible complications and establish all the stages of the operation.
Why is guided surgery less invasive?
The 3D model of the patient's mouth has another important function: that of creating a surgical guide thanks to which we can Drilling holes in the gum without the need to cut it with a scalpel.
This is because the surgical guide already has holes that are placed where the implant will need to be inserted, with millimetric precisionso we don't have to open up the gum to see where to place the implants.
This great advantage for the dentist translates into:
- a less invasive surgery without the use of a scalpel and often without the need for stitches.
- a shorter intervention (usually one hour, while in traditional implantology it can take up to two or three hours)
- less pain, swelling, fever, and discomfort in the days following surgery
Computer-guided surgery also usually involves the Immediate loading of the provisional prosthesis that allows you to eat, talk and smile immediately in a completely natural way.
