简要总结
This study is a long-term clinical follow-up of a previously conducted randomized trial comparing different levels of surgical guidance in dental implant placement. The follow-up phase aims to evaluate peri-implant clinical and radiographic outcomes over an extended observation period of up to 67 months. Clinical parameters and marginal bone level changes are assessed to determine whether the accuracy benefits observed at implant placement translate into favorable long-term biological outcomes.
详细描述
The original clinical trial was designed to compare the accuracy of freehand and guided dental implant placement using different levels of surgical navigation. A total of 101 partially edentulous volunteers were enrolled and randomly assigned to one of four surgical protocols: freehand implantation, pilot-guided implantation, partially guided implantation, or fully guided implantation. Implant placement accuracy was evaluated by comparing the digitally planned implant positions with the actual postoperative implant positions using three-dimensional computerized analysis.
The present investigation represents an extended follow-up of this cohort, conducted to assess the long-term clinical performance of the placed implants. Follow-up evaluations began in February 2019 and continued until September 2024, resulting in a total observation period of up to 67 months. The extended duration exceeded the originally planned follow-up due to logistical interruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Clinical follow-up focused on peri-implant tissue health and marginal bone stability. Peri-implant probing depth was recorded as a clinical indicator of soft tissue conditions around the implants after delivery of the definitive prosthetic restorations. Measurements were performed at standardized sites around each implant, and mean probing depth values were calculated for longitudinal analysis.
Radiographic follow-up was performed using standardized bitewing radiographs to assess marginal bone levels. Marginal bone level was defined as the vertical distance between the implant platform and the alveolar crest, measured both mesially and distally. Because radiographic projection angles could not be fully standardized across all visits, individual calibration was performed for each implant using the known implant neck diameter provided by the manufacturer. This allowed reliable two-dimensional measurements despite variations in radiographic geometry.
The primary objective of this follow-up study is to describe long-term peri-implant clinical and radiographic outcomes following implant placement performed with varying levels of surgical guidance. Secondary objectives include assessing the stability of marginal bone levels over time and identifying potential differences between surgical protocols in long-term biological performance.

主要结局
Implant Survival
时间窗: Up to 67 months post-implant placement
Long-term survival of dental implants placed in the four study arms defined in the IMP SMART 002 trial, evaluated as a direct temporal extension of the IMP SMART 002 protocol (OGYÉI approval number 2224-4/2019). Implant survival is defined as the implant remaining in situ and functional without removal.
