Dynamic Navigation-Assisted Dental Implant Placement

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Dental Implants, Surgery, Computers
Interventions
Procedure: Freehand Implant Surgery
Device: Dynamic Navigation Assisted Implant Surgery
Registration Number
NCT03471208
Lead Sponsor
Istanbul University
Brief Summary

Placement of dental implants via the freehand approach may result in damage to the surrounding critical anatomy of undiscordant prosthetic position. A real-time navigational stereotaxic surgical instrument (navigation) may help to alleviate these undesired outcomes in the freehand approach.

All patients received implants in the right and left the side of their upper jaws via the random use of the navigation or the freehand approach. Positional deviations between the planned and placed implants were measured on a final tomographic image matched to the baseline.
