At TDL we offer guided stents to assist in the placement of dental implants.

At TDL we offer guided stents to assist in the placement of dental implants. This assures the exact placement of the implant during surgery. A wax-up at the implant site is first made, then placement and insertion direction is checked before drilling of the guide. A putty matrix is made and filled with orthodontic resin around a bur creating an exact guide for the drill at the time of surgery. The stent is then shaped and fitted to the model ready for delivery to the Doctor. This is the easiest and most accurate way to know the implant has been placed correctly.

Implant Stents

Over the last few years, you may have found yourself relying on dental implants more than other tooth-replacement methods. As dental implants quickly replace traditional prosthodontics approaches, implant placement procedures have continued to improve. 

For instance, at Treasure Dental Lab, we offer guided stents to assist in dental implant placement. This assures the exact placement of the implant during surgery. Implant stents have been at the frontline of creating more predictable prosthesis-oriented implant procedures. They fulfill all the biomechanical and procedural guidelines

How Do Dental Implant Stents Work?

A wax-up at the implant site is first made, then placement and insertion direction is checked before drilling the guide. A putty matrix is made and filled with orthodontic resin around a bur creating an exact guide for the drill at the time of surgery. The stent is then shaped and fitted to the model, ready for delivery to the dentist or oral surgeon. This is the easiest and most accurate way to know the implant has been placed correctly.

Why Choose Our Dental Implant Stents?

During the diagnostic stage, implant stents are used alongside CT scan imaging to determine the optimal implant placement position radiographically. In other words, stents are used with CT scan imaging and radiopaque marker to preview the implant site and how the adjacent teeth are affected. Oral surgeons can use the information to carry out osteotomy and later locate the healing screw. Our implant stents can be used for:

  • Single-tooth implant: When a single implant is placed on a lost tooth.
  • Implant bridge: Use of titanium implants in the natural bone between two or more teeth.
  • Implant dentures: Use titanium to hold partial or complete dentures in place.

Why Use an Implant Stent for Your Prosthodontics Procedures?

As a dentist, when a procedure calls for fitting dentures, it's only logical to provide the dentures and use the remaining teeth to clasp them on. While this might work perfectly for the time being, at the back of your mind, you know the patient will be back, sooner than later, when the natural bone loss occurs, and the dentures become loose.

Alternatively, you could go for bridging, but that requires reducing the natural tooth structure for proper crown placement. Implants, on the other hand, are the perfect alternative for a good reason. Coupled with implant stents, they appear and feel like natural teeth. Treasure Dental Lab helps preserve the integrity of implant procedures using quality implant stents.
