Dentist performing guided implant surgery using digital planning technology

What is Guided Implant Surgery?

Guided implant surgery is an advanced, technology-assisted method of placing dental implants using digital planning and 3D-printed surgical guides. Instead of estimating implant angles and positions manually, your dentist uses CT scans, digital models, and specialized software to create a highly accurate placement plan.

This approach improves precision, safety, and predictability while minimizing discomfort and healing time. Guided implant surgery helps ensure that your implant is placed exactly where it needs to be for long-term stability, function, and aesthetics.
