A surgical template for performing dental implant osteotomies comprises a malleable, resinous, thermoplastic base, at least one non-thermoplastic, rigid drill guide attached to the base, and a securing mechanism between the base and the drill guide. The template may reversibly melt to a malleable state and can be handled by hand without additional tools so as to conform to the adjacent teeth of the edentulous ridge, either directly in the patient's mouth or on a cast model. Dental osteotomies using the template can then be performed. The surgical template may be manufactured of a thermoplastic material having a sharp and low melting point but high rigidity in the solid state at room temperature.

L'invention concerne un gabarit chirurgical pour ostéotomies d'implants dentaires, qui comprend une base thermoplastique résineuse malléable; au moins un guide-foret non-thermoplastique rigide fixé à la base; et un mécanisme de fixation placé entre la base et le guide-foret. Le gabarit peut être fondu de manière réversible à l'état malléable et manipulé à la main sans autre outil, de façon à le conformer aux dents adjacentes de la crête édentée, soit directement dans la bouche du patient, soit sur un modèle moulé. Des ostéotomies dentaires peuvent ainsi être réalisées à l'aide du gabarit. Le gabarit chirurgical peut être fabriqué avec un matériau thermoplastique présentant un bas point exact de fusion mais une grande rigidité à l'état solide, à température ambiante.
