Guided Pet - Partial Extraction Therapy on the lower molar

Partial Extraction Therapy is the challenging surgical technique, especially on posterior teeth with curved roots. At DENTOLOGY it had been blended with the guided approach for the first time on record . The very first case came out precise and predictable. Now #GuidedPET is available to any implant dentist to make treatments even less invasive.

Awesome case Dr. Andrews!! I have played around with similar idea just using osteotomy drills to remove the apex and stay centered down the root. This was my first case and saved a lot of time compared to what it was taking me, I've maybe done 5-6 cases so far like this and it has been working well. I'm always a fan of your work, awesome idea and documentation. I'm travelling and can't access my guide designs to save as a .jpg, but will upload them once I'm back home. Take it easy, best regards! -Jonathan

Thank you Jonathan,
IMO, using regular osteotomy drills on low-speed HP is risky due to possible loss of SS attachment.
Moreover, implant drills get dull very quick when they used on roots.
I have developed a dedicated PET guide for a long high-speed surgical bur. This is more precise and predictable.
