Instructions For Use (IFU)

Device Description

The Implant Concierge® Surgical Guide is a patient-specific device fabricated from a virtual treatment plan approved by the prescribed
dentist. The guide assists in the depth and orientation of implant osteotomies for partially or fully edentulous patients.

Intended Use

Used to guide compatible surgical instruments during osteotomy preparation according to the doctor’s approved treatment plan.

Storage

Store in a dry, clean area.
Avoid direct sunlight and heat exposure.

Cleaning and Disinfection

Delivered non-sterile.
Do not use heat or autoclave sterilization.
Clean and disinfect the surgical guide and compatible instrumentation prior to surgery.
Prior to using the surgical guide, rinse with water and place in chlorhexidine gluconate or an oral antiseptic (e.g., Listerine®) for 2–5 minutes, then rinse.

Materials

Surgical Guide: Stratasys MED610® (biocompatible resin)
Sleeves: Stainless Steel, PEEK, and/or Metal Alloy

Patient Fit

Single-use, patient-specific device.
Fit is based on diagnostic cast and CBCT scan data*.
Verify accurate seating on the patient’s dentition.
Minor adjustments may be made for proper seating.
Do not use if fit issues persist.

* Poor diagnostic data quality and improper guide seating may cause the drill position, trajectory, and/or depth to be off.

Position, Trajectory, and Depth

Inspect for damage or loose sleeves prior to use.
Verify drilling position, trajectory, and depth per plan documentation.
Do not proceed if there are discrepancies between the guide and the treatment plan.

Surgical Drilling

Confirm instrument compatibility with guide sleeves.
Start drill rotation after engagement with the sleeve.
Maintain constant irrigation to prevent bone overheating.
Use a gentle pumping motion for improved cooling and chip removal.
Avoid excessive force that may crack or deform the guide.
Frequently verify drilled depth with a depth probe.

Drill Tip Length

Tip length may not be included in the system’s total drill length. Understand your system depth calibration before drilling.

Warnings & Precautions

Delivered non-sterile.
Do not use heat or autoclave sterilization.
Do not use if the guide shows visible damage or instability.
Do not use if the guide does not fit.
Do not reuse after use.
Review all accompanying documentation before use.

Disposal

Dispose of the used guide in accordance with local biomedical waste regulations.

Device Validity

Valid only while the patient’s intraoral morphology matches the anatomy captured in the original CBCT and diagnostic cast.
Any dental or gingival changes invalidate the guide — a new scan and guide are required.
