Fabrication and use of a simple implant placement guide.

Proper placement and orientation of dental implants is a requirement for optimum function and esthetics to be obtained with the definitive restoration. This article describes an acrylic resin implant placement guide which is simple to fabricate and easy to use. This device guides the surgeon in the precise position and angulation planned for the implant, yet allows for some flexibility in the event slight adjustments are necessary during surgery.
