A dental implant and final prosthetic placement system for small-diameter implants (and method for using the system) in which a final prosthetic is digitally designed and created, and is itself used as the drill guide to place the implants. The final prosthetic is held in the predetermined proper drilling position by a stent, such as an occlusal guard. The combination of final prosthetic (with holes through which the small-diameter implants are drilled to secure it) and the stent encasing the final prosthetic, is itself the drill guide.

The present disclosure involves object recognition as a method of registration, using a stereoscopic camera on Augmented Reality (AR) glasses or an endoscope as the image capture technology. Exemplary objects include surgical tools, anatomical components or features, such as bone or cartilage, etc. By detecting just a portion of the object in the image data of the surgical scene, the present disclosure may register and track a portion of the patient's anatomy, such as the pelvis, the knee, etc. The present disclosure also optionally displays information on the AR glasses themselves, such as the entire pelvis, the femur, the tibia, etc. The present disclosure may include combinations of the foregoing features, and may eliminate the need for electromagnetic, inertial, or infrared stereoscopic tracking as the tracking technology.

A System of Triple abutments with Tconnect comprising T-abutments to place at least three dental crowns over a one only osseointegrated implant and only one T-abutment, for partial fixed cases and new total fixed segmented cases, T-Over abutments with Plug T for use of overdentures over only one abutment and only one osseointegrated implant too, T-healing for guide specific gingival contour of the Tconnect in the healing phase and T-guides, to guide the implant surgery to be positioned for the use of abutments of this system. The all abutments of this system has Tconnect, being an exclusive design support with paraboloid multidimensional contour in double shape curvature with three pins disposed in the form of a tripod (in triangular arrangement) and are adaptable to all the implant/abutment fitting connections of market. All system may be individualized, make in process type CAD-CAM or prefabricated (manufactured type) and it can receive any type of surface treatment. The new biomechanical possibilities of the invention provide stability, passivity, greater precision of adaptation and better distribution of tensions, a fundamental advantage for use of the immediate load. The soft tissue is favored by immediate loading too. The new fixed arrangements with segmentation promotes cleaning and longevity for the system. This invention provides superior resistance of the abutments, long-lasting esthetic and reduction of the bone grafts, clinical time and costs, ensuring predictability of the results.

A method of producing a modification plan for producing a surgical guide from an impression element includes: obtaining surface data representing a configuration of a surface of an impression element providing an impression of a surgical site; obtaining image data of a patient's anatomy; obtaining surgical plan data providing a surgical plan with respect to features in the image data representing anatomical features of the patient's anatomy; registering the impression element using the surface data and the image data with anatomical features of the patient's anatomy; and producing a modification plan from the surgical plan data using the registration of the impression element with anatomical features of the patient's anatomy, the modification plan being a plan for modifying the impression element.

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.

A tissue borne stackable foundation guide is provided. The foundation guide may include a main body; first connectors formed on and spaced about an outer surface of the main body; one or more ports spaced about the main body and forming a passage therethrough; and protrusions formed on an inner surface of the main body and extending in a generally perpendicular direction therefrom.

Ablation probe tips (108, 148, 320, 360) and physical and virtual stents (110) for use in tooth bud ablation procedures that result in tooth agenesis as well as tooth bud ablation methods are described herein.

An ablation procedure. The ablation procedure may be applied to tooth buds 120 and result in tooth agenesis. The ablation procedure may be applied to lesions or tumors. A tooth bud ablation system for use in a tooth bud ablation procedure that results in tooth agenesis. A method for volume scanning both hard tissues and soft tissues of a patient. A method for manufacturing or fabricating a custom surgical stent 110. A custom surgical stent 110 for use in a tooth bud ablation procedure that results in tooth agenesis, the custom surgical stent 110 for use with an ablation probe tip 108 having a center of ablation 130a.

The present invention relates to a drill guide (1) for use in the dental field. It comprises a grip (5) and at least two guide sleeves (10) arranged on the grip, the grip (5) having a top face (25) and an underside (30) and the underside (30) of the grip being intended to bear at least partially on a drill jig. The at least two guide sleeves (10) protrude from the underside (30) of the grip, and at least one limit stop (55), which is an axial continuation of one of the at least two guide sleeves (10), protrudes from the top face (25) of the grip.

A telescopic casing includes first end portion, second end portion, first support spring, third end portion, and second support spring. Each of the first, second, and third end portions has a hollow tubular shape. Top end of first end portion is detachably coupled to dental handpiece. Top end of second end portion is nested by rear end of first end portion. First support spring is disposed in first end portion, wherein one end of first support spring abuts against top end of second end portion and the other end of first support spring abuts against first end portion. Top end of third end portion is nested by rear end of second end portion. Second support spring is disposed in second end portion, wherein one end of second support spring abuts against top end of third end portion and the other end of second support spring abuts against second end portion.
