Implant Studio™ is indicated for use as a medical front-end software that can be used by medically trained professionals
for the purpose of visualizing gray value images. It is intended for use as a pre-operative planning software for the
placement of dental implant(s) based on imported CT image data, optionally aligned to an optical 3D surface scan. Virtual
Crowns can be used for optimized implant positioning under the prosthetic aspect. The digital three dimensional model of
a surgical guide for a guided surgery can be designed based on the approved implant position. This 3D data can be
exported to manufacture a separate physical product.
Indications of the dental implants do not change with guided surgery compared to conventional surgery.
Use of the software requires that the user has the necessary medical training in implantology and surgical dentistry.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
