Remember…
-
Radiographic and surgical stents are helpful and necessary components of any proper and thorough implant case diagnosis and treatment plan.
Two of the primary reasons for implant case failures are inadequate diagnosis and treatment planning. Which in turn often leads to improper fixture placement.
Failed implant cases are one of the major reasons for dental malpractice litigation today. In the event of such litigation, not having used a radiographic and surgical stent can be a major problem for the Dentist
The MiraDent InstaStent & Surgical Guide is so beneficial, easy and economical to use… Why take that risk?
