Accuracy of Computer-Assisted Dynamic Navigation as a Function of Different Intraoral Reference Systems: An In Vitro Study
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH(2021)
Abstract
The aim of this in vitro study was to determine whether the process chain influences the accuracy of a computer-assisted dynamic navigation procedure. Four different data integration workflows using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), conventional impressions, and intraoral digitization with and without reference markers were analyzed. Digital implant planning was conducted using data from the CBCT scans and 3D data of the oral models. The restoration of the free end of the lower jaw was simulated. Fifteen models were each implanted with two new teeth for each process chain. The models were then scanned with scan bodies screwed onto the implants. The deviations between the planned and achieved implant positions were determined. The evaluation of all 120 implants resulted in a mean angular deviation of 2.88 +/- 2.03 degrees. The mean 3D deviation at the implant shoulder was 1.53 +/- 0.70 mm. No significant differences were found between the implant regions. In contrast, the workflow showed significant differences in various parameters. The position of the reference marker affected the accuracy of the implant position. The in vitro examination showed that precise implantation is possible with the dynamic navigation system used in this study. The results are of the same order of magnitude that can be achieved using static navigation methods. Clinical studies are yet to confirm the results of this study.
