USING A PILOT SURGICAL GUIDE
PALTOP PILOT SURGICAL GUIDE IS RECOMMENDED WHEN:
- There is a need for an accurate entry point and inclination of the drill site.
- For predictable & safe drill depth control with simple drilling protocol
- Prosthetic driven distribution of the implants.
- Recommended for cases with type D1/D2 bone. High density bone enables the clinician to follow the initial pilot osteotomy without deviation.
- Avoid anatomical structures
- In cases where the clinician prefers to review the initial osteotomy and follow through with free-hand technique
