Objectives: This study, investigated the satisfaction of patients who received the procedure using an implant guide to identify factors affecting satisfaction in dental hospitals and clinics in Jeollanam-do. Methods: From December 2021 to February 2022, questionnaires randomly were collected from 128 patients aged 20 to 90 years visiting dental hospitals and clinics using surgical guides in some areas of Jeollanam-do. Results: There was a negative correlation between the overall satisfaction average and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain level (r=-0.414, p<0.001), and a negative correlation between VAS pain level and VAS satisfaction (r=-0.273, p<0.05), As subjective pain decreased, subjective satisfaction increased, and as subjective pain increased, the overall satisfaction average also decreased, showing an inverse correlation. Factors affecting satisfaction with the guide for implant surgery were whether you would like to recommend it to people around you (β=0.556), whether you would like to explain the guide (β=0.194), and whether you thought it was good to receive the guide (β=0.199). Conclusions: Therefore, in order to increase the satisfaction of the implant surgical guide procedure, it is considered important to perform a sufficient explanation of the implant surgical guide before the procedure.
