Precision and Comfort with Guided Implant Therapy 

At Van Huffel DDS, we are committed to providing you with the most advanced and comfortable dental implant procedures available. Our Guided Implant Therapy harnesses cutting-edge technology to ensure that your implant surgery is as precise, efficient, and comfortable as possible.

The Future of Implant Dentistry

Guided Implant Therapy revolutionizes the way we approach dental implants. Using advanced 3D imaging technology, we can visualize every crucial structure within your jawbone, including the sinus cavities, nerves, and roots of adjacent teeth. This comprehensive view allows us to meticulously plan your implant surgery before we even begin the procedure.

How It Works

1. Comprehensive Imaging: We start by scanning both your jawbone and your mouth. These images are then combined to create a detailed 3D model of your oral anatomy. This allows us to see every detail, ensuring precise planning for your implant placement.
2. Restoratively Driven Planning: Before we consider where to place the implant, we design the final crown. This means we determine the ideal position, angulation, and height of the crown first. This approach ensures that the implant is positioned perfectly to support the final restoration, both functionally and aesthetically.
3. Precise Implant Placement: Using the detailed 3D model and the planned crown design, we place the implant exactly where it needs to be. This process minimizes the risk of complications and ensures that the implant will be stable and functional.
4. Surgical Guide for Accuracy: The detailed information from the planning phase is transferred to a digital surgical guide. This guide is used during the procedure to place the implant with remarkable accuracy—within 0.3 millimeters of the planned position. The use of a surgical guide eliminates the need for extensive incisions and allows for a minimally invasive approach.

Benefits of Guided Implant Therapy

• Enhanced Accuracy: Our technology ensures that implants are placed with pinpoint precision, leading to better outcomes and reduced risk of complications.
• Minimized Discomfort: The minimally invasive approach means less discomfort during and after the procedure. The small incision required is like a “cookie cutter” that minimizes tissue disruption and eliminates the need for stitches.
• Faster Recovery: With less tissue disturbance and a more streamlined procedure, patients experience quicker recovery times and less post-operative discomfort.
• Aesthetic and Functional Precision: By designing the crown first, we ensure that the implant placement supports a natural-looking and functional restoration, particularly important for visible front teeth.
