Protocolo de cirurgia guiada por tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico na Faculdade de Odontologia da UFMG

Abstract

Guided surgery represents a significant advancement in modern dentistry, particularly in implantology, where precision and predictability are crucial for procedural success. The steps within the digital workflow sequence for guided surgery include: volumetric data acquisition, surface scanning procedures via intraoral scanning or extraoral model scanning, computational planning software, and design and manufacture of surgical guides via 3D printing. Guided surgery is increasingly becoming routine in contemporary dentistry, showcasing how the integration of digital technologies can substantially transform clinical practice by enhancing standards of precision, predictability, and quality of outcomes in implantology. Moreover, this technique allows for a personalized approach to each clinical case, adapting to anatomical particularities and specific patient needs. The aim of this study was to establish a comprehensive protocol for the planning and execution of guided implants, utilizing the technologies and resources available at the Faculty of Dentistry of UFMG.
