  <description>In the ever-evolving world of dental technology, staying ahead of the curve is essential for both practitioners and patients. This week we talk with Dr. Nilo Hernandez and Johnny O., who are making waves in the industry with their groundbreaking SiOS system (https://siosdental.com/). This innovative approach promises to revolutionize the way full arch dentistry is performed, offering a more efficient and precise method that benefits both dental professionals and their patients.
Dr. Nilo Hernandez, a seasoned implantologist with over 35 years of experience, and Johnny O., a dental technician with a wealth of digital expertise, have joined forces to address the challenges faced in full arch dentistry. Their collaboration led to the development of the SiOS system, a digital workflow designed to streamline the process and eliminate common issues encountered during implant procedures.
The SiOS system stands out for its ability to adapt to any implant system and surgical workflow, thanks to its unique use of beacons or matchmakers. These elements allow for precise placement and alignment, ensuring a better than printed full arch in just a few hours. This means that dental professionals can now offer their patients a more predictable and less invasive experience, with reduced chair time and improved outcomes.
Dr. Hernandez and Johnny O. shared their journey from the initial concept to the fully realized SiOS system. They discussed the challenges they faced, such as the need for a digital solution that could work in both guided and non-guided environments. Their perseverance and dedication to problem-solving led to a system that not only meets these needs but also elevates the standard of care in implant dentistry.
