The goal of dental implant therapy is the accurate and predictable restoration of
a patient’s dentition. These goals are best achieved when all members of the surgical
and restorative team are working together on diagnosis, planning, and reconstruction.
The recent introduction of new 3-dimensional (3D) diagnostic and treatment planning
technologies in implant dentistry have created an environment for the team approach
to the planning and placement of dental implants, according to a restoratively driven
treatment plan. The team can now start with the end result, the planned tooth, and
then place an implant into the correct position according to the restorative plan.
The accurate and predictable placement of implants according to a computer-generated
virtual treatment plan is now a reality, transferring the virtual plan from the computer
to operative treatment. Third-party proprietary implant software and associated surgical
instrumentation, in combination with 3D imaging technologies, has revolutionized dental
implant diagnosis and treatment. This development has created an interdisciplinary
environment in which communication between the team members leads to better patient
care and outcomes.
