About computer-guided surgery

Clínica Sicilia is one of the European dental centres specialized in computer-guided implant surgery with minimally invasive techniques.

From 2003 to 2005, we focused our efforts in implementing the concept of computer-guided surgery, being the first clinic in Spain to have introduced three different and complementary protocols: the SAFE® protocol (Materialise, Louvain, Belgium), the “Teeth in an Hour” TIAH® protocol (Nobel Biocare, Gothenburg, Sweden) and the MED-3D® protocol (Med-3D Implantology, Zurich, Switzerland).

i-CAT SCAN

The acquisition in 2006 of a latest generation maxillary CAT scan (i-CAT) made possible the integration of data collection, processing and virtual diagnosis with the most complex software available, thus allowing for:

The creation of surgical guides.

The adaptation of computer-guided prosthesis.

The implementation of minimally invasive microsurgical techniques for the placement of implants and teeth.

The project

This project concluded in 2007 with the acquisition of a robotized surgery system (Robodent ®).

We have been implementing all these techniques for a decade and, nowadays, this has allowed us to developed or own concept: “INTERACTIVE COMPUTER-GUIDED SURGERY UNIT”.

During your first visit to our clinic you will receive a detailed diagnostic examination including, if necessary, a computerised tomography of your jawbone. This will help us to plan your implant treatment through virtual surgery.

In most cases, this examination allows us to perform a single surgery with minimally invasive techniques, applying all surgical procedures and delivering the provisional dental prosthesis in a few hours. At your second visit to the city, some weeks later, the prosthesis team led by Dr. José María Suárez Feito will fit your new, permanent teeth.
