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
Clinical study of immediate implant placement in posterior maxillary region assisted by dynamic real-time navigation:
1Department of Critical Care Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, Guang dong, China.
Objective:
To evaluate the accuracy of the implant accuracy and clinical effect of navigation-assisted immediate implant placement (IIP) in the posterior maxillary tooth region.
Methods:
This study included 60 patients with 96 implants undergoing IIP in the posterior maxillary region from January 2021 to December 2022, stratified into dynamic navigation and freehand implant groups. All clinical indicators, including initial stability, implant deviation (entry point deviation, end point deviation, depth deviation and angle deviation), marginal bone resorption and implant success rate, were systematically recorded.
Results:
All implants were successfully placed with an average torque of (24.38 ± 1.84)N.cm. The mean entry point deviation, apex point deviation and angular deviation in the navigation group were significantly smaller than that of the freehand group (P < 0.05). Marginal bone resorption was significantly less in the navigated group than in the freehand group (P < 0.05). All dental implants were considered an operational success and the mean follow-up time was (27.8 ± 8.4) months.
Conclusion:
The application of dynamic navigation-assisted immediate implant placement in the maxillary posterior region can achieve good implant accuracy and satisfactory clinical results.
