Treatment solution - At the present time, this treatment solution is only intended for edentulous jaws where:sufficient amount of jaw bone exists and the quality of the jaw bone is adequate for immediate loading, opening the mouth at least 50 mm is possible (important especially for lower jaws while teeth are present in the opposite jaw) - the health of the patient is not compromised. A unique planning and treatment solution - The Teeth-in-an-Hour� protocol is a unique solution made possible by the Procera� System. A custom fabricated precision drill guide and pre-manufactured prosthesis, (based on CT images and virtual planning,) can be made before surgery. The major decisions of the treatment are made during the planning. The execution of the implant placement that follows is performed with minimal surgical intervention.

Computerized technology - The rapid development of CT scan techniques with decreased radiation and 3D computerized imaging technology has made it possible to fully visualize the placement of implants in a real 3D environment.

High precision - The use of surgical templates to place implants has been shown to provide added value and optimized prosthetic rehabilitation by providing both anatomic, as well as prosthetic planning.

The new concept represents a giant step forward in the development of dental implant treatment protocols that are easier and more patient friendly. By combining a unique planning program, a surgical template and the immediate loading concept, it is possible to surgically place dental implants in bone using a flapless approach and to insert a fixed bridge during a single appointment. The result - Teeth-in-an-Hour� allows the possibility to provide patients fixed, well-functioning, and esthetic prostheses on implants in less than an hour. Thanks to the flapless technique, this treatment will greatly reduce healing time, eliminate the need for temporaries and cause virtually no significant pain or swelling.
