Computer Guided Dental Implant Treatment Role in Oral Rehabilitation: A Case Report
A healthy 62 year old male presented with hopeless teeth in the maxillary and mandibular arches. Functions and esthetics are a key priority when planning with oral rehabilitation treatment. After oral examination and treatment planning, the trial dentures were prepared with respect to esthetics and vertical dimension. The scan 3D of teeth and trial dentures were then sent to implant planning software, therefore, surgical drill guide can be fabricated on 3D cast scan. The information obtained on the CT will show a relationship of the final prosthesis and implant position to the available bone. Seven implants were planned to support an implant supported fixed prosthesis and upper removable partial denture. Surgical drill guide were used for implants placement in the surgery stage. The final OPG film reveals 7 implants placed in the position for esthetics and functions and relate with fixed and removable denture restoration. The utilization of this treatment planning technology creates excellence in oral rehabilitation treatment and offers simplicity for the practitioner.
