Who needs surgical guide planning CBCT
Surgical guide planning CBCT serves implant surgeons and specialty dentists who require fully-guided or partially-guided implant placement workflows. Typical referring clinicians:
- Implantologists performing single- or multi-unit guided placement
- Oral surgeons requiring pre-surgical three-dimensional bone mapping for guide fabrication
- Periodontists incorporating guided surgery into their implant workflow
- General dentists beginning guided implant placement for improved predictability
Clinical use cases
- Fully-guided implant drilling: static guide restricts osteotomy to planned position, angle, and depth — reducing reliance on freehand technique
- Bone mapping for guide software: DICOM provides alveolar ridge, bone density, sinus floor, and inferior alveolar nerve data for BlueSky Bio, DTX Studio, Exocad, 3Shape, or coDiagnostiX
- Immediate-load planning: pre-surgical bone data to assess viability of immediate provisionalization depending on protocol
- Anatomical hazard identification: nerve canal, sinus proximity, and adjacent root mapping prior to osteotomy
Why mobile CBCT benefits surgical guide workflows
- Compressed timeline: DICOM in 15 minutes from scan means guide design can begin the same day — versus 24-hour wait at a standalone imaging center
- In-office workflow: no patient referral, no lost appointment slots, imaging integrated into the consultation visit
- Software compatibility: STL add-on is formatted for all major guide design platforms without conversion steps
- Partner lab fabrication: MyNaviGuide partner lab receives data directly and returns finished static guides — ask at booking for current turnaround and pricing

Pricing
Base CBCT scan: $289 (DICOM, encrypted delivery, free screen-share walkthrough). STL add-on: $99 ($388 total). Surgical guide fabrication priced separately by MyNaviGuide partner lab. First-scan promotional rate of $145 may be available — ask at booking.
All imaging requires a prescription from a licensed dentist or physician. Clinical suitability for guided surgery and treatment planning decisions are the responsibility of the referring clinician. Scan results may vary depending on protocol and clinical context.
[ FAQ · SURGICAL GUIDE PLANNING ]
Common questions about surgical guide planning.
- What is a static surgical guide and how does CBCT enable it?
- A static surgical guide is a tooth- or tissue-supported drill template that directs implant osteotomy position, angle, and depth based on pre-surgical planning. CBCT provides the three-dimensional bone data used in guide software (BlueSky Bio, DTX Studio, Exocad, 3Shape) to design the guide. The guide is then fabricated by a partner lab.
- What does MyNavi Scan deliver for surgical guide planning?
- MyNavi Scan delivers the DICOM file within 15 minutes of the scan, and STL export as a $99 add-on to the $289 base scan. The STL is compatible with BlueSky Bio, DTX Studio, Exocad, 3Shape, and coDiagnostiX. Actual guide design and fabrication is handled by the MyNaviGuide partner lab and priced separately.
- Do I need an intraoral scan in addition to the CBCT?
- For most fully-guided cases, guide design software requires both the CBCT-derived bone data and a surface scan (intraoral scan or stone model scan) to create a tooth- or soft-tissue-supported guide. The intraoral scan is typically performed by the referring practice. MyNavi Scan supplies the CBCT component. Ask at booking about integration workflows.
- Who is surgical guide planning appropriate for?
- Implantologists, periodontists, and oral surgeons performing guided implant placement are the primary audience. General dentists beginning implant placement who prefer a fully-guided workflow for increased predictability may also benefit. Clinical suitability is determined by the referring clinician.
