Overview of the Guided Surgery Workflow at Royal Dental Lab
At Royal Dental Lab, the implementation of digital technologies has streamlined and enhanced the dental workflow, particularly in cases of partial edentulism. Let's take a closer look at the step-by-step process involved in delivering high-quality dental restorations to patients.
Overview
Impressions
The first stage involves the dentist taking either digital or traditional impressions of the patient's mouth. These impressions serve as the foundation for subsequent digital processes.
Model Construction
Once the impressions are obtained, we will proceed to create a physical model or build a 3D virtual model. This allows for accurate visualisation and manipulation of the patient's dental structure.
Evobite Construction and Mounting
The next step in the workflow is the construction of an Evobite. This involves the mounting onto the model, along with the mounting inside the mouth to establish the correct occlusion.
Optical Scanning and Virtual Wax-Up
After the Evobite is completed, optical scanning is performed. This process captures precise digital images of the patient's dental structures. Subsequently, a virtual wax-up is created based on the digital scans, allowing for detailed planning of the desired outcome.
Evobite Delivery and CT/CBCT Exam
The Evobite is then delivered to the patient, who undergoes a CT/CBCT examination. This imaging technique provides comprehensive information about bone density, tooth positions, and anatomical structures, aiding in precise treatment planning.
Virtual Planning
With the CT/CBCT exam results in the form of DICOM files and the arch optical scanning data, the virtual planning phase begins. The dental team overlays the data and utilises specialised software to perform virtual implant planning. This includes determining the optimal position and angle of implants.
Operational Phase
In the operational phase, the lab team produces the surgical guide, work model, provisional prosthesis, and surgical occlusal index. The surgical guide is checked in the patient's mouth to ensure proper fit and alignment. If everything is deemed satisfactory, the implant surgery is performed, with the aid of the kit provided.
