Guided surgery using a simple model is reliable for single implant placement, especially in the aesthetic zone. This technique ensures accurate implant positioning and predictable restorative outcomes, even when performed by trainees.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Surgical Technology
  • Implantology

Background:

  • Accurate implant positioning is crucial for successful restorative outcomes, particularly in the aesthetic zone.
  • Guided surgery offers enhanced precision but can be complex for single implant cases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a simplified, model-based guided surgery concept for single implant placement.
  • To assess the reliability and outcomes of this technique in the aesthetic zone.

Main Methods:

  • A tooth-supported surgical template was fabricated on a plaster model with mimicked soft tissues (based on Cone-Beam CT measurements).
  • This template guided all drilling procedures, enabling flapless implant insertion.
  • Implants were placed by Periodontology master's students.

Real-Time Dynamic Navigation System for the Precise Quad-Zygomatic Implant Placement in a Patient with a Severely Atrophic Maxilla

Published on: October 18, 2021

Main Results:

  • 34 AstraTech implants were successfully placed in 29 patients.
  • 16 cases were flapless and 32 were one-stage procedures.
  • Marginal bone loss averaged 0.13 mm in the first year, with stable aesthetic outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • A simplified model-based guided surgery approach is reliable for single implant placement.
  • This technique facilitates accurate pre-operative planning and restoration preparation.
  • It is particularly beneficial for single implants in the aesthetic zone.
