Straumann Gonyx and Co Diagnostix

CoDiagnostix is a total solution for guided surgery. Implant planning before the treatment via software allows a precise implant placement via the surgical guide manufactured by the Codiagnostix system, which is nowadays based on 3D printing. We are the only one-stop office in the Philippines, manufacturing in-house 3D-scan-based surgical guides. Please get more information about that system from the manufacturer here.

What's the advantage of guided surgery for you as a patient?

A perfect smile is the first thing that is noticed on a person’s face. It leaves the initial impression, and it is considered to be an essential part of people’s appearance. If there is a need to restore the space of a missing tooth, it is also necessary to have an aesthetic and natural-looking outcome. To achieve the best possible results, a 3d planning of the new implant position, as well as a guide that allows the surgeon to achieve the best possible position without error, is crucial.

How much does such a drill guide cost?

3d printed drill guides usually cost around 25000-35000 PHP; nevertheless, we are giving this service to our implant clients who avail two or more dental implants and who are eligible to get such a guide FREE OF CHARGE, which is unique in the Philippines.

CoDiagnosticX – the new, sophisticated, advanced diagnostics and implant designing software

CoDiagnostiX is a 3D software for implant planning, allowing the import and processing of the 3D CBCT scan dataset. Working with this software involves analyzing medical images of the patient, such as those obtained through computer tomography or cone-beam computer tomography. Some of the features of this program are listed below:

  • DICOM TRANSFER: The great thing is that the coDiagnostiX system offers two types of DICOM Transfer. They are the quick DICOM Transfer and the expert DICOM Transfer.
  • CLARIFY PANORAMIC CURVE: The process of implant planning always starts with the panoramic curve. It represents the basis for the panoramic view calculation, the position of the implant, and more.
  • CLARIFY NERVE CANALS: The coDiagnostiX program provides automatic detection of the nerve canal in both the maxilla and mandible. This step could also be done manually.
  • MATCHING THE 3D SCAN WITH THE INTRAORAL SCAN:
  • MEASURING AND DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTIONS: This system gives comprehensive measurement and diagnostic features, such as angle, distance, and density measurement.
  • IMPLANT PLANNING: A key advantage of this software is its integrated database of implants from multiple manufacturers. There is a possibility to add abutments for implants, drilling sleeves, and virtual teeth.

A great feature of the coDiagnostiX program is the easy setup of implants. The system offers easy access to the library of implants, including the indication-based abutment selection wizard. The mentioned library consists of implants, abutments, and also sleeve systems from the most prominent manufacturers.

When the implant is placed, the prosthetic step comes. The program offers prosthetic-driven implant planning to more exactly build a virtual setup of the teeth using a wide range of model teeth. The last great feature of this software is the surgical planning function. This is possible due to the pre-defined workspaces, which come with comprehensive 2D and 3D visualization, as well as automatic detection of nerves and other critical distance warning characteristics. The system provides efficient diagnostics and perfect implant planning.

3d-printing

Summary

The significant advantage of Codiagnostix guided surgery is the precise scan and the surgical template fabrication by our local dental laboratory. An excellent fit of the model-based templates or delivery in a short time makes local template fabrication using a 3d printer a better option. This way, our implantologist maintains a high standard of care with the rest of our dental team. This software offers:

  • Increased confidence during the surgery process with the specific additional information given by the 3D imaging data
  • Fully guided and precise surgery intervention, involving physical depth control, and also guided implant placement for more precision in surgical interventions
  • By using this system, an implantologist would perform minimally invasive surgery with the 3D data and guided surgical tools and instruments.

 

This software represents a significant advancement in revolutionary dentistry, enabling our patients to achieve positive outcomes for their impressive smiles.
