Alabama Guided Implant Dentistry

Video Library

Our first video represents a typical Guided Implant Surgery appointment. The Cone Beam I-Cat ct-scans have been completed, analyzed and sent to Nobel Biocare to fabricate the NobelGuide used in the surgery.

Teeth In An Hour

The entire implant surgery was completed in less than one hour. A total of 5 implants were placed. Because of the extreme accuracy that only Cone Beam catscans can provide, the NobelGuide templates have been known to enable patients to complete an entire implant surgery procedure in as little as 30 minutes. Read more about this patient's treatment plan.

Click here to see how immediate function implants are placed into the healthiest areas of jawbone (as determined with the I-Cat scanner) with superb accuracy. The implant guides are created to assure implant placement occurs in specific areas of the jawbone (eliminates the issue of drill alignment discrepancies).

For a clearer understanding and uncluttered view of how computer generated (CAD/CAM) implant guides are used... be sure to watch the next video.

Computer Generated Implant Guides: A Formal Demonstration

Nobel Biocare has been at the forefront of implant dentistry from the very beginning. Their products and technologies, early on, established Nobel Biocare Implants as the Gold Standard of Implant Dentistry.

The advent of 3-D imaging and computer based bioengineering (CAD/CAM) now enables implant dentists, Oral Surgeons and Peridontists to provide surgery at levels of precision that were not possible just a few years ago.

Click here to watch the video created by Nobel Biocare that provides a clear cut understanding of how an implant guide is used and how precision placement is assured for patients seeking the use of the NobelGuide product.

Implant Guides can be created for nearly any type of implant device, whether for a single implant or multiple implants (as seen in the animation video). The actual placement of implants is dependent upon the catscan data used by Dr. Sanderson to find the best and healthiest areas for implant placement.

Advanced 3 Dimensional Computer Imaging in Dentistry

CatScans have been in use for years in the medical field. They have become a routine replacement for obtaining xray alteratives that provide intricate views needed by surgeons and medical practitioners in many different fields.

Today's new generation of Cone Beam Scanners far outstrip the accuracy and safety features that traditional CatScans and Magnetic Resonance Imaging have.

Cone Beam scans generated with Dr. Sanderson's I-Cat scanner are completed in 20 seconds, providing a full digital analysis of all bone structures to nearly any degree of accuracy imagineable.

The digital data all but eliminates the prospect of undiscovered bone issues, tissue abnormalities and even placement of critical nerve fibers that can influence the outcome of common dental surgery.
