I'd like to start offering surgical guides. I need to do some reading on the process. Anybody have any good links for this?
We have an Asiga Max printer, Dental Wings software (so, CoDiagnostix). The actual fabrication will be the easy part. I've already got that figured out. I'm more looking for the technique and knowledge of the overall process on the software side. What do we need from the oral surgeon, etc. Any reading information out on the web for this sort of thing?Depending on your 3D printer manufacturer, they might have some documentation, I would start there to learn about the actual fabrication.
If you intend on miling, same as above, but with your consumables provider.
If you intend on offering planning services, I would start researching planning software. 3Shape has Implant Studio, Materialize has Simplant, Straumann has CoDiagnostiX and Nobel has NobelClinician.
If you own a Nobel 2G scanner, you can get NobelClinician free of charge, with no annual licence to boot.
I've done those many times. Oral surgeons don't want them. They say they literally don't even use them. They like the "nice ones."I would start with the basic vac formed location guide.
I can't tell you how many times using that simple guide would have avoided so many problems associated with lousy placement.
It's your money.I've done those many times. Oral surgeons don't want them. They say they literally don't even use them. They like the "nice ones."
what do you mean?It's your money.
I have the software and I have the materials. I just need the information.software,materials ,training etc.
Thank you! This is a great starting point.A start:

There is no book or online article that has what you are looking for start to finish.
Way more to surgical planning than you will read from a few peer reviewed articles.
Get all of the past issues you can get from your accounts of peer reviewed journals that they read.
Learn head and neck anatomy especially the arteries and nerves of the maxillary and mandible.
Learn why it is important to preserve the cortical plates. What is the minimum distance between two
adjacent implants? How about natural tooth adjacent to an implant. Lots of things to learn...
We have dental wings right now. Hoping to switch to exocad this year.What software are you going to use to plan guides?
Ugh go figure. Thank you wonderful governmentexoplan not available Stateside yet. Thank your Government and favorite agency.

Depends on what you view as the starting point. The starting point for me is the understanding the process, the science, etc. Sorry for misleading you.Your original post was a tad misleading when you asked " where to begin"?
