Comparison of implant placement accuracy in two different preoperative digital workflows: navigated vs. pilot-drill-guided surgery

Abstract: Background The aim of the study is to evaluate the accuracy of a new implant navigation system on two different digital workflows. Methods A total of 18 phantom jaws consisting of hard and non-warping plastic and resembling edentulous jaws were used to stimulate a clinical circumstance. A conventional pilot-drill guide was conducted by a technician, and a master model was set by using this laboratory-produced guide. After cone beam computed tomogra… Show more

“…Although the dynamic navigation system offers comparable accuracy to a static guided approach, its application is limited in a clinical practice due to high costs, steep learning curve, early developmental stage and risk of inaccurate implant placement due to system error associated with either registration or calibration steps especially in completely edentulous cases [ 26 ]. Furthermore, the majority of evidence assessing the accuracy of navigation systems is based on in vitro studies and clinical studies are still scarce.…”

“…Other authors used similar models or additional gingival masks in order to simulate a situation, that is as close to reality as possible but at the same time remaining reproducible [ 18 , 28 ]. For the DENACAM ® system, so far only very few studies regarding its accuracy existed [ 40 , 41 ]. They suggested similar accuracies to static guided pilot drilling, yet did not discriminate between free end position and interdental gaps.…”

“…The surgeon detects deviations in the entry point, apex, and angle on a screen during surgery. Thus, the current drill position and the planned implant placement can be coordinated [ 11 ].…”

“…Nevertheless, the new technique would need to be learned by experienced surgeons, which may be a reason to reject the application in daily clinical practice. However, for young professionals, dental implant surgery could become easier with the help of navigation systems [ 11 ]. Further development and adaptation of navigated implantation using virtual and augmented reality technologies should gain more impact in dental surgery [ 12 ].…”
