Guided surgery
The dentis guided system for SQ implant bodies (Regular, Wide, TQ and HQ) It is designed to facilitate secure planning and a predictable workflow.
Surgery Planning Service
An integrated workflow to ensure precision and support in SQ guided surgery.
Dentis carries out SQ guided surgery planning through PROGuide, ProCenter’s planning platform, ensuring a workflow fully aligned with the clinical requirements of the SQ implant system.
workflow

Initial diagnostic documentation
CBCT (DICOM) and intraoral scanning with STL files to generate the patient’s 3D model.
Digital implant planning
Selection of the appropriate implant and definition of position, axis and depth.
MANUFACTURE OF THE SURGICAL GUIDE
Production of the surgical guide with integrated SQ sleeve, in accordance with system tolerances.
surgical procedure
SQ implant drilling sequence and placement using the guided driver.
Step 1
Initial diagnostic documentation
SQ guided surgery begins with the collection of the clinical records required to generate the patient’s 3D model.
Our team verifies the quality of the CBCT data and STL files to ensure accurate planning fully compatible with the SQ system.
Step 2
Digital implant planning
The received documentation is integrated into the planning software to select the most appropriate Dentis SQ implant and to define its position, axis and depth, in accordance with the patient’s anatomy and the desired prosthetic outcome.
During this phase, the height of the surgical sleeve and the required offset are also established, ensuring that the guide operates with the necessary precision and that the guided drilling corresponds exactly to the digital planning.
The team assesses the viability of the case, identifies potential interferences and adjusts the implant trajectory to achieve reliable planning fully compatible with the SQ system.
Step 3
Manufacture of the surgical guide
The surgical guide is manufactured in accordance with the approved digital planning, using 3D printing with certified resins to obtain a stable and accurate guide. After printing, the guide is cleaned, cured and the supports are removed following the recommended protocol, ensuring a solid structure and a precise fit on the patient’s model.
Subsequently, the SQ metal sleeve is inserted at the position and height defined during planning, using a light-curing adhesive and fixed under UV light to ensure stability.
Once assembled, the guide is thoroughly inspected to confirm correct sleeve alignment and full compatibility with the SQ system drilling sequence.
Step 4
surgical procedure
During the surgical procedure, the SQ guide is positioned intraorally and its passive fit and stability are verified prior to initiating the drilling sequence. When required, fixation pins may be used to secure the guide throughout the intervention.
The guided drilling sequence defined during planning is then followed, using SQ system–specific drills, stops and components to accurately control the osteotomy trajectory, diameter and depth.
Once drilling is completed, the SQ implant is placed using the guided driver, maintaining the digitally planned axis and depth. The procedure concludes with the placement of the healing abutment or cover screw, according to the established prosthetic plan.
