Role of surgical stents in determining the position of implants

Abstract: Aim:Demand from implant patients for quality and efficient treatment is increasing. Fortunately dental implant treatment is evolving with patients expectations.Materials and Methods:The study comprised of 45 patients for whom 89 implants were placed at different sites. Efficacy of the stents is evaluated in determining the position and diameter of the implants.Conclusion:this study shows the extreme accuracy of this surgical stents in implant installation in terms of position and diameter.

“…Achieving the planned angulation and predetermined prosthetic outcome has always been a tough play with conventional placement of implants. There are various methods used to transfer the determined angulations for transfer from clinical and radiograph using devices such as surveyor, modified surveyor table, and positioner perforation guide[456] in which the positioner perforation guides have less error transfer. [7]…”

“…Thus, the increasing demand for dental implant placement using surgical guides has resulted in more advanced techniques for the fabrication of these templates. 2,3 Guides should be constructed of transparent material, stable and firm when in position. It should cover sufficient teeth to stabilize its location, and when teeth are absent, they should extend onto the un-reflected soft tissue regions 3 .…”

“…2,3 Guides should be constructed of transparent material, stable and firm when in position. It should cover sufficient teeth to stabilize its location, and when teeth are absent, they should extend onto the un-reflected soft tissue regions 3 . A surgical guide is supported by the teeth, mucosa or bone and is usually made of polymer.…”
