Enhanced precision
The guide is meticulously crafted based on a 3D model of your mouth, ensuring the implant is positioned accurately. This is especially important when the jaw bone is narrow or the space for placement is limited.
Digitally guided surgery
At Ardent Smile in Clapton, London, we believe in providing the highest standard of care for our patients. One of the advanced techniques we offer to ensure exceptional results is the use of surgical guides for dental implant placement.

Explained
A surgical guide is a highly sophisticated tool that enhances the precision and accuracy of dental implant procedures. Using advanced 3D imaging and digital impressions of your jaw, we create a customised guide tailored to your unique anatomy. This guide ensures the implant is placed in the exact location, at the perfect angle and with the ideal depth to maximise success.
Benefits
The guide is meticulously crafted based on a 3D model of your mouth, ensuring the implant is positioned accurately. This is especially important when the jaw bone is narrow or the space for placement is limited.
By providing clear visibility of the implant site, surgical guides reduce the risk of errors, minimising the chance of complications both during and after the procedure.
With a surgical guide the procedure is often less invasive, as it allows the surgeon to plan and execute with fewer incisions — meaning reduced healing time and less discomfort.
The precision of a surgical guide lets us achieve consistently excellent outcomes, with implants that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
The technology
The surgical guide is a small, custom-made acrylic resin template that fits snugly over the adjacent teeth or gums. It contains precise openings where the dental implants are to be placed, guiding the surgeon's drill and ensuring exact placement in the bone. This is ideal for cases where there is limited room for error, such as when the bone is thin or there are other anatomical complexities.
At Ardent Smile we take pride in using this cutting-edge technology to provide safe, reliable and highly effective dental implant solutions. Our team is committed to restoring your smile with implants that feel and function like natural teeth.
