3-D Printed Drill Guides



Drill guides designed using 3Shape Implant Studio software can now be 3-D printed out on EnvisionTEC's Micro DGP (Drill Guide Printer).

The integration between the two companies enables EnvisionTEC's Micro DGP to print out Implant Studio - exported STL model drill guides. The drill guides are printed using Clear Guide M 3-D printer material from EnvisionTEC.

Dental professionals design the guides using 3Shape Implant Studio software. The guides are based on previously approved planning of the implant position before implant surgery by, for example, the dentist. The drill guides are then used to direct drilling during the dental implant surgery, enabling a predictable and faster implant treatment.

"EnvisionTEC Micro DGP and its Clear Guide materials have created a successful integration with our Implant Studio software. The seamless integration enables more and more dental professionals to take advantage of precision-printed drill guides during implant procedures," said Allan Junge Hyldal, VP Orthodontics and Implantology, 3Shape.
