Guide Dental implant, the important thing is the 'design'.

Moon Dental Hospital
Hello. This is Moon Dental Hospital in Cheonan/Asan.
Dental implant treatment requires a careful planning process to determine the exact position, direction, and depth for the implant. This is because every patient has different conditions regarding their alveolar bone, surrounding teeth, and prosthetic requirements.

■ What is a guided Dental implant?
A guided Dental implant is a method where the implant position, direction, and depth are pre-planned using CT and oral scan data, and a surgical guide customized to the patient's mouth is used to reflect this plan during surgery. Simply put, after planning the position on a computer, the fabricated guide directs the actual implant position and direction during the surgery. . .
■ What is more important than the guide is the 'design'
The guide is a tool that helps reflect the treatment plan into the surgery. Therefore, the design that determines where, in what direction, and at what depth to place the implant is crucial.

Dental implant When determining the position, we consider the alveolar bone, surrounding teeth, gums, and future prosthetics together. Moon Dental Hospital plans the implant position by reflecting both digital analysis and the medical team's experience.
■ Reflecting long-term clinical experience in digital design
Moon Dental Hospital's guided Dental implant design incorporates the 30+ years of Dental implant clinical experience and know-how of Hospital Director Eun-Soo Moon.
Based on CT and oral scan data, we design the optimal implant position and direction for the patient by considering the bone, surrounding tissues, periodontal condition, and future prosthetics.
■ In-house design, printing, and refinement
Moon Dental Hospital handles guide design and production in-house. The medical team participates in the design, prints the surgical guide with an in-house 3D printer, and checks and refines the necessary parts. The ability to verify everything from design to production and refinement is a key feature of Moon Dental Hospital's guide system.
■ Checking the condition of the bone around the Dental implant with two digital systems
Moon Dental Hospital uses digital guide systems such as R2GATE and OneGuide to analyze CT data and refers to the bone condition of the implant site in the treatment plan. Based on the confirmed information, we review the bone condition and the implant position/direction.

■ Verifying the plan and the actual implant position
We plan the position using pre-operative CT and digital design screens, and if necessary, verify the actual implant position with post-operative CT.
Since there may be differences between the digital plan and the actual position, the medical team's verification and judgment during surgery are necessary.
■ Can be used for one to multiple Dental implants
The guide system can be used for both single and multiple implant placements. After planning the position and direction of each Dental implant, it is reflected in the surgery using the guide. If the alveolar bone and gum condition are appropriate, a method to reduce the incision range can be considered, and its applicability depends on the bone condition, whether bone grafting is required, and the scope of treatment.
■ Planning not only the surgery but also the prosthetics
When planning the implant position, Moon Dental Hospital conducts digital design by considering the abutment (the part connecting the Dental implant and the prosthetic) and the temporary crown together. The process of planning the position and direction of the Dental implant while considering the final prosthetic is important.

Depending on the patient's condition and treatment plan, it can be linked to the production of a temporary crown.
■ Design comes first, and the guide connects that plan to the surgery
In guided Dental implant, the surgical guide plays the role of helping to reflect the plan established by the medical team into the actual surgery.
Moon Dental Hospital plans Dental implant treatment tailored to the patient's oral condition by utilizing Hospital Director Eun-Soo Moon's accumulated clinical experience, the medical team's digital design, and the in-house production system.
“Design based on accumulated experience, and the guide reproduces it. Based on Hospital Director Eun-Soo Moon's 30+ years of clinical know-how, we examine the patient's condition to plan the implant position and direction, and the guide helps reflect that plan in the actual surgery.”
※ The applicability of the guided Dental implant and the treatment method may vary depending on the patient's oral condition and the scope of treatment.
