Proper bone contouring around the implant collar – especially in immediate load cases – is essential to ensure a passive fit of the prosthetic components and to support long-term stability and esthetics.

Start with a solid diagnosis and a well-structured treatment plan. When combined with Thommen Medical’s fully guided digital workflow, this foundation allows for highly precise implant placement and contributes to predictable, high-quality restorations.

Avoid placing the implant too supracrestally, as this can compromise both esthetics and function. Use the bone contouring instrument to refine the crestal bone and support a passive fit of the prosthetic components, ensuring long-term stability.

Plan your first cases together with someone experienced in the Thommen Medical system. Its straightforward osteotomy workflow allows you to focus on other critical surgical aspects during implant placement.

Take a step-by-step approach: first learn the basics of conventional surgery – raising a flap, suturing, and placing implants freehand. Only then move on to guided techniques. Don’t follow trends blindly – rely on solid training, clinical experience, and scientific evidence.

Sébastien Monlezun

Focus on improving your surgical training – assist whenever possible and gain as much hands-on experience as you can. Join a mentoring group, such as the Alliance for Implant Dentistry (AID) in Switzerland, to accelerate your learning through guided support and shared knowledge.
