Prof. Dr. Cüneyt Karabuda

Guided Implant Surgery

Alveolar bone atrophy and absence of missing teeth challenges the proper positioning of implants in total and partial edentulous patients. Maxillofacial volumetric computerized tomography and three dimensional (3D) reconstructions enable clinicians to insert the implants in proper positions. Surgical guides allow to transfer planned implant positions to the patient. By inserting implants with help of surgical guides, surgical and prosthetic complications can be prevented .In this presentation type of surgical guides and usage of these guides in oral implantology will be discussed.
