HOW GUIDED IMPLANT SURGERY WITH X-GUIDE WORKS

Dr Daniel Juma and Dr Jeffrey He will begin designing your procedure during your initial visit to Dental Place of Plano. Using a small device called an X-Clip, we will virtually map all of the features of your teeth and supporting jaw bone. The process will only take a few minutes, and most patients find it very comfortable.
Dr Juma and Dr He will also obtain a CBCT and an intra-oral digital scan and combine these scans with data from the X-Clip. Using this information, the doctor will determine the ideal location for your implant. X-Guide allows our Doctors to see all angles of the implant site as a rich 3D landscape.
During your procedure, Dr Juma and Dr He will use the X-Clip to get a 360-degree view of the implant site. Like using GPS for driving directions, the X-Guide provides turn-by-turn guidance for placing the implant according to the treatment plan. Using the X-Guide helps our doctors control the exact position, angle, and depth of the implant, offering remarkable accuracy compared to freehand techniques.
At Dental Place of Plano, our investment in the X-Guide aims to revolutionize the way that our practice performs its procedures. The results of implants placed with guided implant surgery are scientifically proven, and Doctors around the world now use the technology in their procedures.
One of the unique features of X-Guide is that it can capture data related to the doctor’s performance during surgery, measuring the accuracy of the implant’s placement. As a result, Dental Place of Plano has demonstrable evidence of the high quality of its procedures. If your goal is to receive a tooth restoration that is comfortable, strong, durable, and natural-looking, we invite you to explore the difference in our care.

BENEFITS OF GUIDED IMPLANT SURGERY WITH X-GUIDE
X-Guide allows the Doctor to visualize the implant site according to a digital treatment plan. It then provides turn-by-turn guidance during the surgery.
X-Guide distinguishes itself from other guided implant surgery systems because it is dynamic rather than static. With other systems, doctors can’t easily adapt to issues they encounter during procedures. Using X-Guide, our doctors can change course in the middle of surgery based on the height and thickness of the soft tissue. This research-backed technology offers many other benefits over freehand placement:
Minimally invasive. Our doctors can perform implant procedures without incisions, which means less trauma, less discomfort, and a speedier recovery. Typically, our patients at Dental Place of Plano only need minimal pain medications following surgery with the X-Guide system.
Accurate. X-Guide is 10 times more precise than a freehand approach. Because it takes the guesswork out of placement, guided implant surgery provides predictable results with little risk of complication.
Efficient. With dynamic navigation, our Doctors can take scans of a patient’s mouth, design a digital plan for the surgery, and place the implants on the same day.
Based on these same benefits, Dental Place of Plano also employs the X-Guide system for biopsies, bone grafting, sinus lifts, and third molar surgery.
