Dynamic navigation improves accuracy in direct sinus floor elevation (SFE) procedures with simultaneous implant placement. This technology enhances surgical precision, potentially reducing complications and improving implant outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Dental Implantology
- Surgical Navigation Technologies
Background:
- Direct sinus floor elevation (SFE) with simultaneous implant placement is a common procedure for augmenting the maxillary sinus.
- Challenges include achieving precise lateral window access and protecting the sinus membrane.
Observation:
- A 27-year-old female patient underwent SFE and implant placement using dynamic navigation (Navident).
- Pre- and post-operative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) assessed the accuracy of the lateral window and implant trajectories.
Findings:
- Dynamic navigation provided real-time visualization, aiding in the prevention of sinus membrane tearing.
- Lateral window trajectory deviations were noted, but implant placement accuracy was high, with minimal deviation (0.03 mm entry, 0.82 mm apex).
Implications:
- Dynamic navigation offers a highly accurate and precise method for planning and executing SFE procedures.
- This technology can potentially minimize surgical complications and enhance implant stability.
