Title: Simplistic partially limiting surgical guide for flapless implant placement: a case report. Author: Nanda A, Jain V. Journal: J Oral Implantol; 2012 Oct; 38(5):639-41. PubMed ID: 22097921. Abstract: The accurate positioning of implant in bone is important in order to meet the biological, esthetic, and biomechanical requirements of the prosthesis. This becomes crucial in flapless implant placement. The combination of bone sounding and use of a surgical guide will allow precise placement of a dental implant, abutment, and provisional restoration in a minimally invasive manner. A technique to transfer the diagnostic information to the surgical guide is described in this report. The chief advantage of the procedure is the ability to apply flapless implant placement surgery and immediate loading.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
