C-Tech C Guide sleeve

The C-Guide sleeve library is designed for the exoplan module within the exocad DentalCAD environment, enabling planning of guide sleeves for the C-Guide Guided Surgery system by Italian manufacturer C-Tech Implant. C-Tech Implant produces dental implant systems and related solutions such as surgical templates. The C-Guide system uses sleeve inserts fixed within a surgical guide to provide precise guidance and navigation during implant placement. The manufacturer's catalog lists Narrow and Wide sleeve options, allowing adaptation of the guide to different clinical situations and ridge dimensions. The library is loaded into exoplan and used by the surgeon or dental technician during virtual implant planning: after placing virtual implants, the appropriate C-Guide sleeve is selected, positioned within the template, and the file is exported for 3D printing. This solution is relevant for clinics running a full digital workflow — from CBCT scan to navigated surgery. C-Tech Implant is a niche European brand, primarily distributed in Italy and neighboring countries, which reflects its presence in global CAD libraries.
