Surgical Guide Design
from CBCT
Fully-guided implant guides planned from your CBCT + scan in CoDiagnostiX, Exoplan or RealGuide. STL ready to print in 24–48h. CBCT viability included. From $59 USD.
Guide types we design
From a single pilot guide to full-arch stackable systems — planned to your kit and protocol.
Fully-guided single
Tooth-, mucosa- or bone-supported guide for a single implant, with sleeve offset and full drill sequence for your kit.
From $59 USDMulti-implant guide
Partially or fully edentulous cases, prosthetically-driven placement merged with the restorative plan.
Per implantStackable full-arch
Multi-part stackable guides for full-arch immediate-load: pin base, osteotomy guide and bone-reduction level.
Per caseBone-reduction guide
Precise alveoloplasty reference planned against the prosthetic envelope for predictable restorative space.
Add-onPilot guide
Economic pilot-drill guide when a fully-guided sleeve set isn't required — same CBCT-driven accuracy.
Quote on requestPrint-ready STL
Delivered as a print-ready STL for any resin printer with a validated surgical-guide resin — you print in-house.
IncludedFrom CBCT to guide in 4 steps
You send the CBCT and scan; you print the guide.

DICOM CBCT plus an intraoral/model scan. We confirm viability within 24h.
Prosthetic plan
Implants planned prosthetically-driven, merged with your restorative goal and kit sleeves.
Guide designed
Guide body, sleeves and inspection windows designed in CoDiagnostiX/Exoplan. Preview for approval.
Print & place
Download the STL, print in-house, sterilize and place. Full drill protocol provided.
Planning software & systems
Planned in your platform, with your implant and sleeve system.
Why clinics outsource guide design
Surgical guide questions
What files do you need to design a surgical guide?
A CBCT in DICOM format plus an intraoral or model scan (STL/PLY) of the arch. For edentulous cases we also use a scan of the denture or a radiographic guide. We merge them and plan in CoDiagnostiX, Exoplan, RealGuide or BlueSkyPlan.
Which systems and sleeves do you support?
All major systems: Nobel Guided, Straumann Guided, Neodent GM Guided, MIS, Dentsply, BioHorizons and universal metal/keyless sleeves. We design with the exact sleeve offset and drill protocol for your kit.
Do you design fully-guided, pilot, bone-reduction and stackable guides?
Yes — pilot and fully-guided tooth-, mucosa- and bone-supported guides, plus bone-reduction guides and stackable/multi-part guides for full-arch immediate-load cases.
How much does surgical guide design cost?
From $59 USD per implant, including a CBCT viability assessment. Multi-implant and full-arch stackable guides are quoted per case. No contracts or minimum orders.
How fast is the turnaround?
We confirm CBCT viability within 24h, then deliver the planned STL guide within 24–48h. You print it in-house on any resin printer with a validated surgical-guide resin.
Do you work as a freelance surgical guide designer for labs and clinics?
Yes. I'm a freelance dental CAD designer — you outsource single guides or a steady case flow with no contract, no software license on your side and no minimum. You keep your patients; I deliver the planned STL guide ready to print.
Can you design a stackable guide for All-on-4 immediate loading?
Yes. For full-arch immediate-load cases we design stackable / multi-part guides: a fixation base, a bone-reduction guide and an implant guide that index together, so the surgery and the immediate provisional stay aligned. Pairs with our All-on-X framework design.
Do you plan the implant positions or just design the guide?
Both. We do the full digital implant planning — prosthetically-driven positions, respecting bone, nerve and sinus — in CoDiagnostiX / Exoplan, then convert the plan into the printable guide. You approve the plan before we build the guide.
Which printer and resin should I use for the guide?
Any DLP/LCD or SLA resin printer (Formlabs, SprintRay, Anycubic, Phrozen and similar) with a biocompatible Class I surgical-guide resin. We deliver a hollow, correctly-oriented STL with the sleeve seats already at the right offset for your kit.
