Guided surgery is an implant placement technique that includes the following steps: diagnosis, virtual planning and 3D positioning before placement using a 3D Printed or Milled drill guide.

The main advantage of computer assisted prosthetically designed planning is working with 3D views of the patient's CBCT and intraoral anatomy. By utilising virtual mockups of the final position of the eventual prosthesis 3D planning can be prosthetically guided to enable a more predictable final position of the dental implant and also the prosthesis.

With the IDDA Universal Guided Surgery Kit it is possible to carry out guided computer-assisted surgery with ANY implant manufacturer having diverse morphologies, both with a cylindrical and tapered morphology with a sleeveless approach that is tailored to the specific system required.

Description

This Package contains 3D Files (binary STL and EXOCAD format) of a selection from the natural Anteriores Teeth collection:

– 10 Female shapes:  F1, F2, F6, F8, F12, F14, F16, F19, F23, F31

– 4 Male shapes: M2, M5, M7, M9

– 2 Lower shapes:  U1 F13, U2 F32

Installation tutorial for Exocad: Download PDF (1,4 MB)

For each shape the package contains:

– One STL and EXOCAD 3D file of the uncut model with gingiva

– One STL and EXOCAD 3D file containing 6 or 8 single teeth with root parts.
With one preview image (jpg):

The teeth are symmetrical. The Teeth of one side were mirrored.

The first premolars are standard teeth.

The file contains all teeth in their natural position. Some 3D programs can split this file in single components at import.

The roots are open at the end.

– 6 or 8 separate STL and EXOCAD 3D files containing each single tooth with root parts. These are the same geometries as from 2. just as separate files for those 3D programs that cannot split the single file in components.

– One original clinical Photo from the Book Anteriores.
