X-Guide Navigational Implant Surgery

Precision Implant Placement with Advanced Technology

X-Guide Navigational Implant Surgery is a state-of-the-art procedure that utilizes advanced 3D navigation technology to precisely place dental implants. The X-Guide system enhances the accuracy of implant placement, allowing for optimal positioning with minimal invasiveness. This technology provides real-time visual feedback during the surgery, ensuring the implants are placed with exact precision, which can lead to faster recovery times and more predictable outcomes.

The X-Guide system improves the overall success of the implant procedure by reducing errors in angle, depth, and positioning. It is particularly beneficial for complex cases or when implants need to be placed in areas with limited bone density or challenging anatomy.

Procedure Time: 1–2 hours
Anaesthesia: Local anaesthesia with sedation
Downtime/Recovery: 1–2 weeks

Key Benefits

  • Enhanced accuracy and precision in implant placement.

  • Reduced risk of complications and implant failure.

  • Minimally invasive approach with faster recovery time.

  • Improved outcomes for challenging or complex cases.

  • Real-time navigation ensures optimal implant positioning.

  • Initial Consultation

    • A thorough evaluation of your oral health, including X-rays and 3D imaging to determine implant placement and bone density.

    • Discussion of your treatment plan and the use of X-Guide navigation for optimal results.

    Preoperative Planning

    • Detailed mapping of your jaw using 3D imaging to plan the exact position of each implant.

    • Customised treatment plan to address your specific needs and ensure the best possible outcome.

    Surgical Procedure

    • X-Guide technology is used during the surgery to guide the precise placement of the implants in real-time.

    • A small incision is made in the gum tissue to access the jawbone, and the implant is carefully inserted using the navigational system.

      • After the procedure, post-operative care instructions are provided to manage swelling, avoid hard foods, and follow proper oral hygiene practices.

      • Follow-up visits to monitor healing and the successful integration of the implants.

    1. How is X-Guide different from traditional implant surgery?
      X-Guide uses 3D navigation to provide real-time visual feedback during surgery, allowing for more accurate and precise implant placement compared to traditional methods.

    2. Is the X-Guide procedure painful?
      The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia with sedation, so you should not feel any pain during surgery. Some discomfort and swelling may occur afterward but are typically manageable with prescribed medication.

    3. How long does the recovery take after X-Guide implant surgery?
      Most patients experience minimal downtime, with recovery taking approximately 1–2 weeks. Follow-up visits will be scheduled to ensure proper healing and implant integration.

    4. Can anyone have X-Guide surgery?
      Most patients who are suitable candidates for traditional implant surgery can also benefit from X-Guide, particularly those with complex cases or who require greater precision in implant placement.
