Surgical Guides for Dental Implants
Surgical guides for dental implants are fast becoming the standard of care for dental implant surgeries.
Working with an experienced ConeScan technician to utilize the latest technology allows the dentist to plan the implant surgery digitally, and then accurately place the implant on the day of surgery for safe and predictable outcomes for their patients.
What is a surgical guide for a dental implant?
Surgical guides are an invaluable tool for a dentist looking to take the guesswork out of the placement procedure. They are a custom-designed mold that allows the surgeon to place implants (either individual teeth or a full set of dentures) with exact precision.
The surgical guide acts as a road map for the surgeon when they are drilling holes or placing implants. With guided surgery, dentists are able to offer their patients a higher level of precision and accuracy than ever before.

How our dental implant surgical guides are created?
To create a surgical guide, ConeScan first performs a CBCT scan in order to analyze the patient’s unique jawbone structure and anatomy. We then use this data to create a plan using computer- aided design software.
We use state-of-the-art medical 3D printing to produce the surgical guide. This plan gives us precise directions on where and how best to place the implant, so that we can ensure optimal function and aesthetics with minimal risk of tissue or nerve damage.

How our dental surgical guides work
ConeScan provides a seamless link between the implant plan and actual treatment with a digital workflow. The latest advancements in dental technology allow the dentist to combine the digital impression of the patient’s mouth with the information from the CBCT dental scan to create a surgical guide for more predictable surgeries.

Surgical Guides for Dental Implants FAQ
How are dental surgical guides made?
At ConeScan, our expert technicians use a combination of state-of-the-art CBCT scanning and medical 3D printing to create customized dental surgical guides. The dentist, orthodontist or surgeon then uses this mould to guide them during the implant surgery, vastly improving accuracy while reducing the time the patient needs to be in surgery.
What are the benefits of dental surgical guides for patients?
For the patient, surgical guides provide a number of benefits. Firstly, dental surgical guides can help to reduce the amount of time spent in surgery by allowing the dentist or orthodontist to precisely plan out their work prior to going in. As a result, procedures are much more efficient and significantly less invasive than traditional methods. Secondly, surgical guides provide more accurate guidance during surgery so that procedures can be carried out with minimal discomfort and faster healing times.
What are the benefits of dental surgical guides for dentists?
For dentists, surgeons and orthodontists, dental surgical guides offer an incredible level of precision and accuracy when performing complex surgeries. The ability to use precise measurements obtained from digital models allows for increased safety as well as higher quality results with fewer complications down the line. By utilizing dental surgical guides in combination with advanced imaging technology, dental practitioners have peace of mind knowing their procedures will be done right the first time.
What is computer guided surgery?
It is a pre-treatment planning concept of osteotomy using guided surgery software and cbct. In utilising this process, you can pre-define implant size, length and position in bone. In addition, a surgical guide is fabricated based on your treatment plan that helps you place the implant(s) in the patient’s mouth. This is considered a more accurate and predictable method for placing implants to ensure the best restorative results for patients.
What types of guides do you fabricate?
We support a variety of different guide types, including;
- Tooth Supported
- Tissue supported
- Bone Supported
Do you provide surgical guide for flapless surgery?
Yes, we do. It is very commonly used in dental implant surgery. Tissue or mucosa supported surgical guide can be used to approach for flapless surgery.
What is the difference between a flap and flapless surgical guide?
Flap surgical guide i.e., bone supported is stabilised over the bone after raising tissue whereas flapless surgical guide i.e., Tissue Supported is stabilized over the tissue or gum.
Do you provide stackable or bone reduction guide?
Yes, we have dealt with a number of complex cases for full mouth restorations that used a bone reduction guide. We can design and fabricate custom bone reduction guides specific to you case needs.
