Short and Narrow, but Dense Ridge

A 64-year-old woman, diabetes, high cholesterol under control, + osteoporosis, taking med once a week.   Ask the patient whether #18 RCT retreatment has been done by a specialist.  If there is time, finish 9, 21,22 composite.  Question: Is this guide made from scan or impression?  What should be done before dipping the guide into Chlorhexidine?  Since UF 3.8x8.5mm implant will be placed, change the last drill from 3.5x10 to 3.0x10 mm.  Use 5.5 mm profile drill.
