(page # 6) Clinical cases solved with the use of the "Gordils Device". Other cases: Radiographic view of three implants inserted in the upper maxilla after using the device. Notice the perfect parallelism between all these pins. Clinical view of two paralleling pins inserted between an upper canine and a molar after using the device. Clinical view of four paralleling pins inserted in the lower mandible. Summary. The adequate distribution of forces applied on an osseointegrated implant is one of the most important prerequisites for estimating the long term prognosis of successful osseointegration. These forces should be directed towards the longitudinal axis of the implant or implants. In those cases where more than one implant is utilized, these should be aligned as parallel to each other as possible. With the use of the Gordils device a perfect parallelism between implants can be achieved during the surgical stage and therefore making it easier for the surgeon to precisely place the implants. The fabrication of the prosthesis is greatly enhanced both for the dental lab and the restorative dentists. The end result is a very predictable restoration.   Prior Page   Comments?
