Navigating the future of guided dental implantology: A scoping review.

Background: The aim of this scoping review was to understand the development of robotics and its accuracy in placing dental implants when compared to other forms of guided surgery.

Methods: An electronic search was conducted on the electronic databases of PubMed, Cochrane, and Science direct with the following queries: ((robotics) AND (dental implant)) AND (accuracy). The search timeline was between 2017 and 2022.

Retention of zirconia crowns to titanium bases with straight versus angled screw access channels: an invitro study.

Background: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of abutments with angled screw access channel on the retention of zirconia crowns.

Methods: Seven implant replicas were inserted in epoxy resin blocks. Fourteen zirconia crowns for central incisor tooth were digitally fabricated and cemented to titanium bases (Ti-bases) with resin cement.
