Flapless guided implant: Will this fail?
Last Updated: Dec 15, 2017
I placed my first flapless guided implant a couple of weeks ago. I am kicking myself at the moment that I didn’t just lay a flap and do it freehand. Access was difficult and it was also difficult maintaining the guide in position. As a result, osteotomy probably overprepped in the coronal aspect. Insert torque I feel was probably too high at 60ncm – I panicked a bit as felt the implant was not seating fully through the guide. First PA is directly after insert. Second PA is with healing abutment 2 weeks post op. Patient has no pain or symptoms, and appears normal clinically, but I am concerned about the crestal bone loss on the mesial aspect. Opinions would be appreciated.
