Comparative Analysis of Implant Prosthesis Treatment Planning and Execution Following Bone Repair Procedures Using Dynamic Surgical Navigation in Augmented Areas

Successful implant placement in augmented sites depends on the appropriate bone volume and quality, as well as careful planning of the procedure. Minimizing risks during the surgical and healing phases is also of great importance. A very promising technique has been introduced, which partially meets the above criteria. This technique is designed to increase the precision and reduce the invasiveness associated with surgical procedures during implantation. The aim of this clinical study was to analyze the accuracy of computer-guided implant surgery in augmented sites in patients treated with dental implants introduced using dynamic implant navigation. Eleven healthy patients who had planned and performed implant-prosthetic treatment after bone augmentation were analyzed. Twenty-three implants were placed with Navident dynamic navigation using the tissue punch flapless technique. This study evaluated the position of the inserted implant relative to the virtual plan and determined the correlation. The treatments were successful in all the treated patients, and the integration period (3 or 6 months) was uneventful and enabled implant-prosthetic treatment. The accuracy values provided in this study are comparable to, but not better than, data provided in the literature on dynamic and static computer-assisted surgery. Dynamic navigation may improve the quality and safety of surgical procedures and reduce the risk of complications.
