Systems and processes for dental implant placement

An orthodontic placement system comprising:

• a. a base including a wire aperture configured to receive an existing archwire therein and a coupling member aperture configured to receive at least a portion of a coupling member;
• b. a guide comprising a plurality of positioning apertures, wherein the positioning apertures are adapted to facilitate identification and marking of a position for a dental implant based on a radiograph of the guide when the guide is positioned in the mouth;
• c. an adjustment member coupled to said guide and allowing a position of the guide to be modified relative to said base, said adjustment member including a coupling member aperture configured to receive said coupling member;
• and,
• d. said coupling member extending through said coupling member apertures of said adjustment member and said base member to couple said adjustment member to said base, said coupling member extending into said base wire aperture to retain the archwire in a fixed position therein to render said system non-slidable on said archwire.
