[QUOTE="2thm8kr, post: 236004, member: 1367"] Getting back to the first patient. Looking at the scan of the soft tissue it seems we have a ton of width. [ATTACH=full]24161[/ATTACH] Here is a 2d cross sectional view of the soft tissue and the flipper over the CT scan of the ridge. The area marked in red is where we will look at the ridge in 2d. [ATTACH=full]24164[/ATTACH] The bone width is approximately 5.4mm. That doesn't dive us a lot of options in that area. Ever wonder why a surgeon tosses your lab made surgical guide in the trash and places the implants somewhere else? Here is a prime example of why. Without the 3d x-ray information that guide you spent all that time on is merely a suggested implant location. [ATTACH=full]24165[/ATTACH] Same slice with a 3.8 x 9 implant. We are right at the nasal floor and the implant barely fits between the cortical plates. You can also see the radiolucency around the lower right bridge abutments before they came out in the impression. [/QUOTE]
