Pin Guide

Utilizes teeth or tissue to deliver the fixation base (CR/CO SLM)

Dentate

Pin Guide is fully seated on the patients existing dentition. Once verified via the two occlusal windows, the horizontal sites are frilled and anchored. Anchor pins fully seated, verified and the guide is removed.

Edentulous

Pin Guide is a digital duplicate of the patient’s existing denture. This tissue-supported guide is inserted, patient closes, and the anchored sites are drilled, anchored, verified, and the guide is removed.

Fixation Base

Use for both bone reduction, anchoring the osteotomy guide and prothetic

Once the teeth are removed and tissue is flapped, the bone reduction guide is inserted, anchored, and bone is leveled to meet the labial and lingual frame of the guide . This guide floats above the bone, and therefore should not be impinged by undercut.

3

Osteotomy Guide

This guide is rigidly fixed with the pins, yet floats around the bone.

Standard protocols are followed to drill sites and place implants.

4

PMMA

This guide is rigidly fixed with the pins, yet floats around the bone.

Superior to conventional denture pickup systems, this anchored GuidedSmiles nano-ceramic provisional transfers the CO/CR as determined by pre-surgical records. Implants abutment positions, anchored sites, tooth position, smile, and tissue space are all pre-set.

Rapid Appliance

The method of communicating GuidedSmile to the articulator for the final

Rapid Appliance is a special pick-up device, a clear duplicate of the PMMA. This allows the doctor to capture a second record to hold until final conversion. Once the patient is ready for the final, perform a pick-up impression, with tray adhesive on the tissue side, using medium PVS, send this pick up to TC and we will fabricate the final restored.
