REHABILITATION OF PATIENTS WITH PARTIAL SECONDARY EDENTULOUSNESS WITH ORTHOPEDIC CONSTRUCTIONS ON DENTAL IMPLANTS USING CODIAGNOSTIX SURGICAL GUIDES
In dental practice, the most common outpatient operation is tooth extraction. As a result, dentition defects are formed with a corresponding violation of the chewing function [1]. Traditionally, chewing function has been restored by removable or non-removable dentures. In the modern world, due to the availability of medical dental services and the development of voluntary medical insurance, an increasing number of people choose dental intraosseous implantation as a method of secondary adentia rehabilitation. It is now generally accepted that dental implants represent the most physiological design for replacing dentition defects, in contrast to traditional removable and fixed dentures. The key to a successful treatment is a high-quality preliminary joint planning of surgeon and prostodontist, choice of the position and number of implants, and design of the final restorative structure. Today, the global trend in dentistry tends to be minimally invasive, atraumatic, accurate and solving the assigned medical problems in the shortest possible time. In recent years, digital dentistry and navigational surgery techniques have been successfully introduced into everyday dental practice. When choosing a treatment with the use of digital technologies, specialists use a surgical template and a digital prototype of the future orthopedic construction for strict adherence to the preliminary treatment plan.
