When all you have is a hammer……: Another CEREC Guide/Astra Case

Here is a case that I have been putting off restoring for a while due to the wait on the FDA with the Astra EV scan posts and turns out, this patient broke a tooth next to the implants!  Scanned for  CEREC Guide 2.  Just for fun we printed a model on the Moonray but you don’t have to.

 

In this case we planned for a 4.2 by 11mm implant.  Be careful when super gluing the Astra sleeves in as you can get glue on the inside of the guide tube.  Had to run a bur around it.  Smooth surgery with the Astra EV guided kit.

This is a case where I should have gone guided when I p[laced 3 and 4 but couldn’t.  I was testing out the sleep diameters and the drills wouldn’t fit.  Fully guided though on #5.  Grafted and placed a membrane.  Will wait for the Ti Bases and temporize with Enamic.
