Before You Drill — 27-point guided implant surgery checklist

A guided case rarely fails at the osteotomy. It fails earlier.

The complications you manage on Monday started in the planning, the records, or the conversation that never happened before the patient arrived.

An out-of-date record

The CBCT is months old, the shade and tissue map have shifted, and the plan is built on a snapshot that no longer matches the patient in the chair.

A registration nobody interrogated

The guide indexes to a scan that was never verified against the mount. One loose contact and the whole osteotomy translates millimeters off the prosthetic target.

A restorative endpoint never approved

Surgery was approved. The final emergence profile, the screw access, the emergence — never signed off. The implant lands where the surgeon chose, not where the restoration needs.

The remedy isn’t more technology. It’s a deliberate pause before irreversible treatment.
