A surgical guide foundation system, device, and methods of making and using same. The surgical guide foundation system may include one or more foundation devices. The one or more foundation devices may include a main body portion, one or more fixation ports formed in the main body portion and forming a passage therethrough, and one or more carrier connectors (e.g., plug connector style latches) formed on the main body portion. The surgical guide foundation system may further include a guide component. The guide component may be configured to be engageable with one or more of the one or more carrier connectors. The main body portion may include protrusions formed on an inner facing surface of the main body portion and extending in a generally perpendicular direction therefrom.

The present disclosure relates to a guide for revising a drilling path on the alveolar bone and, more specifically, to a guide for revising a drilling path on the alveolar bone, which is used for guiding to a correctly revised path in a process of new drilling due to a wrong path in the process of drilling a hole to place an implant in the alveolar bone during implant surgery.

The invention could comprise a bone foundation guide system and a method for same, the bone foundation guide system having a bone foundation guide comprising a body that is contoured to reversibly affix to a bone segment of a dental implant surgical site, the body being further contoured accept and to guide the cutting of a portion of the bone segment from a dental implant surgical site and as well as to alternatively support a dental implant surgical guide; the dental implant surgical guide; and a bone foundation guide prosthesis as an alternative to the dental implant surgical guide, the bone foundation guide prosthesis combines with the body to accommodate the bone segment portion as placed through the body prior to the bone segment portion being removed from the dental implant site through the use of the body.

A dental implant surgical guide and manufacturing method thereof are provided. The dental implant surgical guide comprises a retainer, a guide portion, and an indicator. Said guide portion is located on either the tongue side or the palatal side of a patient, and comprises a guiding groove corresponding to an implant hole and an opening being connected to the guiding groove; said indicator comprises an extension portion and a terminal, wherein the extension portion is extended from the retainer to an implant platform of a missing tooth portion, while the terminal indicates a location of the implant platform. Therefore, locations of the implant platform and the implant hole of the missing tooth portion will be positioned by the dental implant surgical guide when placing the dental implant surgical guide on the missing tooth portion.

A series of a palatal expanders increasing width can be used to gradually expand a patient's palate. Each palatal expander may have a palatal region flanked by teeth regions. The palatal region can have a plurality of anchor-receiving features (e.g., anchor interfaces) that allow the palatal expander to be attached to temporary anchorage device anchors that have been implanted into the patient's maxilla.

A bone foundation guide system has a bone foundation guide including a body that is contoured to reversibly affix to a bone segment of a dental implant surgical site. The body is further contoured to guide the cutting of a portion of the bone segment from a dental implant surgical site and alternatively support a dental implant surgical guide. The body is further contoured to support a bone foundation guide prosthesis as an alternative to the dental implant surgical guide. The bone foundation guide prosthesis combines with the body to accommodate the bone segment portion as placed through the body prior to the bone segment portion being removed from the dental implant site through the use of the body.

One possible embodiment of the invention could be a combination of a bone foundation guide and a dental implant surgical guide and a method of use, the guide comprising a body having a buccal wall and a lingual wall that is continuously connected by a first end and second end forming an open surgical space connecting a top of the body with a bottom of the body, wherein the bottom is further contoured to receive and rest upon at least a portion of a bone segment of a respective patient's alveolar ridge to guide the surgical alteration of a respective patient's alveolar ridge; a dental implant surgical guide that is capable of locating and securing one or more implants upon the respective patient's alveolar ridge; wherein the dental implant surgical guide fits upon the top, the top being contoured to receive and support the dental implant surgical guide.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems, devices and methods for performing a surgical step or surgical procedure with visual guidance using an optical head mounted display. Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems, devices and methods for displaying, placing, fitting, sizing, selecting, aligning, moving a virtual implant on a physical anatomic structure of a patient and, optionally, modifying or changing the displaying, placing, fitting, sizing, selecting, aligning, moving, for example based on kinematic information.

A fixation pin for fixing a dental drill template. The fixation pin has a head having a bearing surface that is intended to bear at least partially on the drill template, or a sleeve provided in the drill template. The fixation pin has a rod having a shape of an essentially circular cylinder and extending from the bearing surface at an essentially right angle. The rod is intended to be inserted into the drill template or the sleeve provided in the drill template.

A bone foundation guide system and method, the system could comprise a bone foundation guide comprising a body forming an open surgical space, the body further having a bottom contoured to reversibly affix to exposed bone of a dental surgical site and a top contoured to match a bottom side of a dental implant surgical guide; at least one anchoring strut that removably attaches to the body with an apex of the anchoring strut further denoting an one or more indentations for matching up with and receiving one or more portions of one alveolar ridge that opposes another alveolar ridge supporting the dental surgical site; alternatively to the anchoring struts and a tissue spacing gasket, the dental implant surgical guide that removably connects to the body; and alternatively to the anchoring struts or the dental implant surgical guide, the tissue spacing gasket that removably connects to the body.
