MIS Implants

The MIS MCenter offers custom solutions for both the surgical and restorative aspects of implant dentistry. Dedicated to the make it simple concept that drives the MIS brand, the MCenter has simplified and improved traditional guided surgery.

Beginning with the planning and surgical phase, the MCenter makes the process simple and affordable. First, the doctor submits digital (DICOM) data and models or impressions of the patient's mouth. Easy to follow instructions to determine the type of information to submit can be found on the MCenter website www.mcenterusa.com.

MCenter professionals upload the data into the MGuide proprietary software in which the DICOM data and the scanned models (STL files) are overlapped. Virtual implants are placed in the software in accordance with the patient's anatomy and the desired outcome. A screen sharing appointment is then scheduled to review, plan and approve the case. During that screen sharing appointment the doctor and the MCenter professional evaluate each implant in real time and the clinician can have the position of the implant altered. Once the surgical plan is approved by the clinician, a customized surgical stent is designed and then manufactured using the latest 3D printing technology. The surgical stent is packaged with the appropriate implants and usually shipped two days after final approval is confirmed.

Did you notice something missing? The software is not purchased by the doctor. That immediately brings down the cost of guided surgery. With the MGuide system you pay for each stent on a case-by-case basis (they also have packages available for multiple cases).

Surgeons notice the differences in the MGuide surgical stent right away. The stent is designed so that it clips on the undercuts of existing teeth to secure it in the proper position. For edentulous cases the stent rests on the soft tissue and is contoured specifically for each individual case. In this type of scenario, the stent is safely secured using either fixation pins or template anchoring screws.

The MCenter's surgical stent has a clear and open architecture that offers the ability to access and correctly irrigate the osteotomy site without the need for awkward drill guide keys that are used in traditional guided surgery systems.

MCenter provides a full range of zirconia restorative solutions for dentists and dental labs, as well as custom milled zirconia abutments, full contour crowns, copings and bridges. Highly trained technicians work closely with the referring lab or dentist to ensure the expected outcome. With state-of-the-art CAD/CAM milling machines and high quality raw materials, the MCenter is able to deliver meticulously designed and crafted components to the restorative doctor and ultimately, the patient.

To summarize the advantages of the MCenter MGuide surgical system:
  1. Simple design: Cross link support and contours to rest on saddle areas. The clinician has better control of the drills as there is no need to use drill guide keys.
  2. Safety: The surgical stent provides a level of accuracy that is difficult to achieve in normal non-guided surgeries.
  3. "Top-down" planning: Each case is thoroughly planned starting with the desired outcome and working backward to the surgical phase. A wax-up is done for every case.
  4. Patient comfort: Surgical time is significantly reduced even in complicated cases, which translates in less patient discomfort.
  5. Availability of temporary restorations: The MCenter can create temporary restorations to be delivered with the surgical stent at the doctor's request.
