This study introduces a new method for creating computed tomography (CT)-guided surgical templates using hospital navigation equipment. The technique enhances preclinical accuracy for dental implant procedures.

Area of Science:

Medical Imaging
Surgical Planning
Dental Technology

Background:

Accurate surgical templates are crucial for dental implant placement.
Current methods for template production can be complex and time-consuming.

Purpose of the Study:

To present a novel concept for CT-guided surgical template production.
To improve the preclinical accuracy of surgical templates using existing hospital navigation equipment.

Main Methods:

Utilized multipurpose hospital navigation equipment for CT-guided template production.
Employed a modified Vogele-Bale-Hohner (VBH) mouthpiece for registration.
Transferred surgical plans to dental stone casts using an optical navigation system.
Preclinically evaluated template accuracy by drilling duplicated stone casts.

Main Results:

The VBH mouthpiece simplifies registration, requiring only a dental impression.
The method allows for immediate template fabrication in a standard laboratory without positioning devices.
Achieved a maximum normal deviation of 1.4 mm and maximum angular deviations of 2.8 degrees in preclinical evaluations.

Conclusions:

The presented concept enables successful production of CT-guided surgical templates.
The method demonstrates sufficient accuracy for potential clinical application in dental implantology.
