A Dependable Resource Just In Time
Many clinicians have a growing interest in dental implant placement utilizing the benefits of Computed Tomography (CT) and the desire to accelerate patient provisionalization. Now, our most recent innovation can take you in this new direction.
BIOMET 3i has developed the Navigator™System – For CT Guided Surgery. This system offers the instrumentation clinicians need to transform computer-based planning into real-world function and optimal aesthetics. The instrumentation and additional planning can allow you to perform cases more predictably and in less time.
Navigate Your Way Accurately
CT Guidance: Steps To Success
1. The scanning appliance may be created from an existing denture or new waxup to visualize the soft
tissue and tooth position in the third party planning software chosen.
2. CT scan of the patient by an imaging center or in the clinician’s office. Data from the scan is converted
into the planning software.
3. The clinician plans the case within the planning software and the case plan is sent to the surgical
guide manufacturer. Fixation of the Guide can also be planned at this time.
a. The software company may act as the surgical guide manufacturer or
b. A laboratory may create the surgical guide.
4. The surgical guide manufacturer develops a case specific surgical plan and surgical guide.
5. The surgical plan and surgical guide are sent to the dental laboratory or restorative doctor and used in
conjunction with the BIOMET 3i Navigator
™
Laboratory Kit (if no immediate provisional is desired,
go to step 8).
6. The master cast is poured into the guide or the implant analogs are placed in the preoperative cast
on a partially edentulous case using the guide.
7. The abutments are selected and the provisional prosthesis is fabricated and sent to the clinician.
8. The surgical guide and surgical plan are sent to the surgeon and used in conjunction with the
BIOMET 3i Navigator Surgical Kit.
9. The surgical guide is placed and may be fixated with 2mm fixation screws.
10. The clinician will prepare the site(s) with the case specific surgical plan and surgical guide
using the BIOMET 3i Navigator Surgical Kit.
11. The implants are placed through the surgical guide.
12. The implant mounts and surgical guide are removed.
13. If a traditional procedure is desired, a one or two-stage procedure is completed and a traditional
provisional prosthesis – denture/Maryland Bridge/flipper partial – may be delivered.
14. The abutments and the provisional prosthesis are delivered.
15. The patient is able to go home that day with a brand new smile!
Working in tandem with planning software and surgical guides, the Navigator™System delivers:
• Compatibility that provides freedom to choose among leading planning software solutions and surgical guide manufacturers:
Materialise Dental, Inc.
iDent
• The option to perform a variety of cases
including single unit, partial and fully
edentulous cases
• Surgical flexibility for clinicians to perform
bone, tissue and/or tooth-supported cases
• Complete guidelines that help to save time
• Restorative options so clinicians can
provisionalize the case with:
• Conical Abutments With QuickBridge™
Provisional Components
• PreFormance®
Provisional Components
• Provide®
Abutments And Temporary Cylinders
The Instruments To Best Execute Your Plan
A comprehensive treatment planning system is complete with the Navigator™ Surgical and Laboratory Instrumentation offering:
• Hex-Orientation: Allows the laboratory to pour a master cast and orient the analogs as the implants will be positioned, to achieve restoration of single-unit, cement-retained cases and cases where abutments are off-angle
• Depth Control: Drills are depth specific with stops built in for definitive preparation and for reducing the chance for error. There is no need for adjustable depth control measures, loops, calipers or looking for the right line
• Variable Prolongation: Decreases the amount of vertical space needed to perform certain types of dental implant surgery that inherently require longer instrumentation
• Easy-To-Identify Instrumentation: Simplifies the process of using the instrumentation for the clinician and staff
• Surgical Flexibility: Currently available for Certain® Implants in 3.25, 4.1 and 5mm diameters and Certain PREVAIL® 3/4/3, 4/3, 4/5/4 and 5/4 Implants.
By Using Computer Tomography To Treat Patients, The Clinician Can:
• Identify ridge concavities, converging roots, proximal nerve position or sinus location
• Manage aesthetic considerations like scalloped thin tissue types or anterior cases with high smile lines
• Perform flapless procedures that are less invasive
• Anticipate the need for grafting, abutment angle correction, restorative and aesthetic results
• Utilize chair time more efficiently to perform implant surgery
