At Whitefern Dental Health in Essex, we offer this state-of-the-art procedure to ensure optimal results for our patients.

Features of Guided Implant Surgery
Advanced 3D Imaging
Our guided implant surgery process begins with advanced 3D imaging technology. This allows us to create a detailed digital model of your jawbone, teeth, and surrounding structures. The 3D images provide a comprehensive view, helping us to plan the implant placement with unparalleled precision.
Computer-Guided Implant Placement
Using specialised software, we create a customised surgical guide based on your 3D images. This guide ensures the precise placement of dental implants, improving the accuracy and success rate of the procedure. The computer guided approach minimises the risk of complications and ensures optimal alignment and positioning.
Minimally Invasive Technique
Guided implant surgery is a minimally invasive technique that reduces the need for extensive incisions and sutures. This results in less discomfort, faster healing, and a more comfortable overall experience for the patient.

The Guided Implant Surgery Process
Initial Consultation and Assessment
The guided implant surgery process begins with an initial consultation at Whitefern Dental Health, Essex. Our dental professionals will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if guided implant surgery is the right option for you. We will take detailed 3D images of your jaw and teeth to create a precise treatment plan.
Treatment Planning
Using advanced software, we analyse the 3D images to plan the implant placement. The software allows us to identify the optimal locations for the implants, taking into account the density and structure of your jawbone. A customised surgical guide is then created to ensure accurate placement during the procedure.
Implant Placement
On the day of the procedure, the surgical guide is used to place the implants with exceptional accuracy. This minimally invasive technique reduces the need for extensive incisions and sutures. The implants are securely positioned in the predetermined locations, ensuring optimal stability and alignment.
Healing and Integration
Following the implant placement, a healing period is necessary for the implants to integrate with the jawbone. This process, known as osseointegration, typically takes several months. During this time, temporary restorations may be provided to maintain aesthetics and function.
Final Restoration
After the implants have fully integrated with the jawbone, the final restorations are attached. These custom-made restorations are designed to match your natural teeth in colour, shape, and size, providing a seamless and natural looking smile.
