Guided Surgery in the Aesthetic Zone

Two adjacent anterior implants placed with a tooth-supported guide, with the emergence profile planned before surgery.

Case

Two central incisors were lost after trauma in a patient with a thin biotype. The restoration had to support the soft tissue, which meant the implant position had to be correct to within a fraction of a millimetre.

A tooth-supported guide was designed from the CBCT and the scan, with the sleeves positioned so the screw channels emerged palatally.

Production

The guide was printed with metal sleeves and checked on the model. Custom titanium abutments with a concave emergence profile were produced after surgery, followed by layered zirconia crowns.

The soft tissue was supported by the provisional throughout, which preserved the papilla between the two sites.

What made it work

The implant position was designed from the crown, and the provisional was shaped to support the tissue from day one.
