3D Printing Surgical Guides for Dental Implant Workflows

Course Lecturer: Dr. Steven Vorholt

This course demonstrates how to design surgical guides for dental implant workflows. Dr. Vorholt explains how to merge a 3D x-ray (CBCT) with intraoral scans (3D models of patients' teeth) to create guides for precise dental implant placement. With SprintRay 3D printers, dentists can fabricate surgical guides in-house, ensuring highly accurate placement and efficient workflows.

This course provides an in-depth look at the scan-to-print workflow, enabling dentists to streamline surgical guide fabrication. By merging CBCT data with intraoral scans, Dr. Vorholt shows how to create highly accurate 3D models for efficient guide design.

The SprintRay 3D printing ecosystem offers tools for designing and fabricating surgical guides in-house. This allows dentists to:

• Improve implant placement accuracy
• Reduce fabrication time
• Lower material costs

Dr. Vorholt also discusses the integration of 3D printing into dental practices for enhanced patient outcomes.

Explore the latest design tools and material options available, including SprintRay Cloud Design services and resin offerings. Learn how these advancements enable dentists to create custom night guards, surgical guides, and more while reducing lead times and costs.
