WORK STATION AND METHOD TO BUILD UP A SURGICAL TEMPLATE TO GUIDE THE INSERTION OF OSTEOINTEGRATED IMPLANTS IN THE MAXILLARY ARCHES

摘要

Method and work station (1) to build up a surgical template (2) guide, in which at least one real stone cast (4) of the dental arches is made, attached to the real stone cast (4) is a tracking system (17) made taking a three dimensional scan of the surfaces of the real stone (4) cast in order to obtain a virtual reproduction (18) of the teeth and/or the dental mucosa including the tracking system (17), this same tracking system (17) as attached to the real stone cast (4) is applied onto the patient and a CT (computed tomography) scan is performed in order to obtain a three dimensional virtual reproduction (19) of at least the part of the skull showing the tracking system (17) , this virtual three dimensional reproduction (19) is then integrated with the virtual reproduction (18) of the teeth and/or the dental mucosa in order to plan the dental implant in a virtual environment, and to create the surgical template guide (2) using the results of the virtual planning.
