2. Fabrication of DIAGNOSTIC Guide

3. An impression is taken and a cast is made, a hole is drilled in the
cast at the #19 site planned for implant placement with a 3/32” drill.

4. A 3 mm guide post is placed in the hole.

5. A 3 mm X 8 mm guide sleeve is placed over the guide post. The angle of the
guide post is not critical as this is for a DIAGNOSTIC guide which will be
evaluated and corrected using information from a cone beam X-Ray.

6. Under cuts are blocked out and petroleum gel is used to lubricate the cast. Triad®
Gel is added to the brackets of the guide sleeve and the adjacent teeth to form the
body of the DIAGNOSTIC guide. The guide is placed in the patient for the Cone
Beam X-ray.

The set screw is tightened with a hex driver.
A stylus is placed over the guide post.
The stylus is moved to the right to the appropriate

90° counter clockwise until the next flat surface (representing the buccal surface of the
guide post) is aligned with the set screw.
The set screw is retightened.
When rotated the stylus raises up off the plate and points to the 0 degrees.
A stylus support bar is moved down to support the stylus to maintain the angle of the

The osteotomy was started using a 2 mm pilot drill with drill stop slightly smaller
(3.9 mm) diameter than the inside diameters of the 4 mm guide sleeve.

20. A open guide sleeve of 4 mm diameter was used for the surgery.
The 4 mm open guide sleeve will accommodate drills up to 4 mm diameter.

21. The diameter of the osteotomies were enlarged by visually
centering the increasing size drills in the 4 mm guide sleeve.

SINGLE BEND review
Step 1 Place bending tool plate on a secure flat surface with the degree increments
at the top & the stainless steel bar with the v-cut at the bottom.
Step 2 Locate 3/32” hole in the center of the v-cut and place the bottom half of the
guide post into the hole. Tighten the set screw.
Step 3 Locate the hole in the bottom of the stylus that you will use that will fit over
the top half of the guide post (3.0 mm, 4.0 mm or 5.0 mm).
Step 4 Fit the stylus over the guide post securely with the point directed at
zero degrees and the bottom of the stylus in contact with the V block.
Step 5 Using the stylus as a lever, bend the guide post to the degree of angle of
correction. You may need to ease the point of the stylus beyond the
point of the desired degree.
Step 6 Loosen screw and remove guide post and the stylus to find the guide post
bent to the desired angle.

GUIDE POST BENDING TOOL
COMPOUND BEND overview
Step 1 Position a straight or offset guide post in the bending plate, tightening the set
screw against one of the flat surfaces on the lower half of the guide post.
Step 2 The 1st bend can be made to the right or left direction.
Step 3 The set screw is loosened and the guide post is rotated 90 ° next flat surface.
Step 4 The 2nd bend in the second plane is made after rotating the guide post up away
from the surface of the bending plate to register the stylus point back at 0 degrees.
Step 5 Slide the stylus support bar down under the stylus until it supports the stylus.
Tighten the side screws before making the second bend.
Step 6 The second bend can be made in either direction according to the x-ray.
Step 7 Remove the stylus and place the guide post back in the cast with the
appropriate side indicated by a mark facing the buccal or lingual surface.
Be sure the post is in the correct position.
If the post needs to be corrected by a linear movement an offset guide post can be used.
Off sets available in the 3 mm guide post: 0.5,1,1.5, 2.0 ,or 3.0 mm.
