ZimVie Unveils New RealGUIDE 5.4 Software Update

ZimVie’s new RealGUIDE® 5.4 dental implant software update helps dental professionals manage procedural risk more effectively and plan complex cases in a fraction of the time.

The Florida company—which develops, manufactures, and delivers a comprehensive portfolio of products and solutions designed to support dental tooth replacement and restoration procedures— announced the release of its RealGUIDE 5.4 software Wednesday and adds that the update is now available in all markets where RealGUIDE is sold.

The biggest enhancement in this version is one-click nerve detection and automated bone and tooth segmentation, the company states. This allows clinicians with greater case insights and treatment planning confidence, as well as significant time savings. Additionally, RealGUIDE 5.4 introduces new dental restorative design workflows meeting the evolving needs of the most demanding clinics and dental laboratories.

The software also features new amplified CAD workflows designed to empower labs to create the most attractive designs in implant dentistry. Now with an automated 'split-bar' tool set, this new feature makes the creation of complex multi-material prostheses for full-mouth rehabilitation intuitive and efficient, according to ZimVie. Additionally, new cloud-based design libraries offer improved accessibility for clinicians.

“This most recent version of RealGUIDE software underscores ZimVie’s commitment to innovation and empowers healthcare providers to deliver exceptional dental care with greater efficiency, safety, and esthetic outcomes, thereby lowering the cost and improving the quality of implant dentistry,” Vafa Jamali, president and chief executive officer at ZimVie says in a press release. “Our goal is to drive guided surgery to be the standard of excellence for all implant cases and subsequently drive greater adoption of implant dentistry.”
