WHAT IS DYNAMIC SURGICAL NAVIGATION?
Dynamic Surgical Navigation is free-hand guided surgery with real-time motion tracking of the clinician’s handpiece and patient position. All based on one pre-operative CBCT scan that enhances the long-term success of implant-supported restorations.
How Does it Work?
A fiducial, recognized as an anchor point, is affixed to the patient and held in place with a stent during the initial CBCT scan, and again during surgery.
During surgery a patient tracker is attached to the stent. Cameras track markers located on both patient tracker and dental handpiece to determine the relative position of the drill and patient which is displayed on a monitor.

During surgery, two cameras locate unique markers on the handpiece and patient tracker attached to the stent
The precise angulation and position of the drill is calculated and overlaid on the patient’s CBCT scan, in real-time and displayed on the monitor

Why Use Dynamic Surgical Navigation?
Same day planning and surgery
One pre-op scan reduces or eliminates the need for x-rays during the implant procedure
Ability to change plan, to adapt to clinical situation, during surgery
Immediate extraction & placement of single and/or multiple implants in aesthetically challenging zones
Improved control of drilling trajectory, enhancing predictability
Most beneficial in areas where there is questionable bone volume, limited vertical space, diverging roots or tight interdental spacing
Enhances the restorative outcome and the long-term success of implant-supported restorations
WHY CHOOSE GUIDED SURGERY OVER CONVENTIONAL FREE-HAND SURGICAL TECHNIQUES?
Accurate and predictable
Optimizes restorative outcome
Enhanced, less invasive, flapless surgery
Shows location of vital anatomic structures and drill in real-time during surgery
ADVANTAGES OF DYNAMIC SURGICAL NAVIGATION VERSUS STATIC GUIDE TECHNIQUES?
No outsourcing or laboratory preparation needed, reducing time and cost
Ability to change plan to adapt to clinical situation at time of surgery
Immediate extraction & placement of single and/or multiple implants in aesthetically challenging zones
Improved control of drilling trajectory
