Wide nasopalatine canal and limited apical anchorage: guided-surgery planning

Guided surgery and osteotomyDecide how to proceed

Good morning. I am Dr Stuffer from Aosta. I am planning this implant and, given the limited dimensions available for apical anchorage and the width of the nasopalatine canal, I intend to use guided surgery with the Mallet. Do you have any advice or observations? Thank you.

Will the restoration be screw-retained or cement-retained?

I would position it 1 mm farther palatally in any case.

Alternatively, I would seek greater apical anchorage by placing a longer implant at a slightly greater inclination and compensate with angulated screw-channel screws.

Oppire andrei a cercare maggiore ancoraggio apicale posizionano un impianto più lungo, posizionato leggermente più inclinato, e compensando con delle viti cardaniche che possono essere avvitate inclinate
