Guided Surgery in Implantology: A Revolution for Your Smile

Implantology-guided surgery represents a major advance in the field of dental care. This innovative technique allows dental implants to be placed with unrivaled precision, thus providing optimal results both aesthetically and functionally.

Let’s discover together the advantages and how guided surgery in implantology works.


What is Guided Surgery in Implantology?


Guided implant surgery uses digital tools to plan and execute the placement of dental implants. Using 3D planning software, the dentist can visualize the patient's bone structure and precisely determine the ideal location for implants. Once planning is complete, a tailor-made surgical guide is manufactured using a 3D printer directly in the dental office. This guide, which fits perfectly to the patient's jaw, ensures that implants are placed exactly as planned on the planning software.


The Advantages of Guided Surgery


Precision and Safety

One of the main advantages of guided surgery is the precision it offers. Digital planning helps avoid sensitive anatomical structures, thereby reducing the risk of complications. The surgical guide also ensures exact implantation, minimizing human errors.

Comfort and Speed

Guided surgery is often less invasive than traditional techniques, which means less post-operative pain and a shorter healing time for patients. Additionally, detailed planning helps reduce the duration of the procedure, making the process more comfortable for the patient.

Superior Aesthetic Results

By placing implants with great precision, guided surgery achieves optimal aesthetic results. The implants are positioned to properly support the dental crowns, ensuring perfect alignment and a natural appearance.


The Guided Surgery Process at Biodental Tournai


  1. Initial Consultation and Assessment : During the first implantology consultation with our practitioners Rémi BOULIER or Bérenger DIOT , your oral health is assessed and you will discuss your specific needs. Digital scans and x-rays will be taken to obtain an accurate image of your jaw.

  2. Virtual Planning : Using specialized software, we plan the exact location of the implants taking into account bone density, nerve position and other anatomical structures.

  3. Manufacturing of the Surgical Guide : Once planning is complete, a personalized surgical guide is manufactured using a 3D printer. This guide will be used to guide the practitioner during the intervention.

  4. Placement of Implants : During the procedure, the surgical guide is used to position the implants with millimeter precision. The procedure is generally quick and minimally invasive.

  5. Monitoring and Rehabilitation : After placement of the implants, we provide regular monitoring to ensure that healing is progressing correctly. Once the implants are well integrated, the permanent dental crowns are placed.
