Accuracy of freehand surgery, static and dynamic computer assisted surgery on zygomatic implant placement: A systematic review and meta-analyses.

Real-time surgical navigation systems (dynamic computer-aided surgery, d-CAIS) and static guided surgery (static computer-aided surgery, s-CAIS) have been shown to enhance the accuracy of zygomatic implant (ZI) placement. The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate and compare the accuracy and risk of complications associated with d-CAIS and s-CAIS in ZI placement. A systematic review of published studies involving more than 4 patients was conducted to assess and compare the accuracy of d-CAIS and s-CAIS in zygomatic implant placement.

Survival analysis of dental implants placed in a private practice. A multicenter prospective cohort study.

Background: This prospective cohort study aimed to assess the predictability and survival rates of dental implant treatment in edentulous patients while identifying potential factors contributing to implant failure.

Material And Methods: A total of 80 outpatients, receiving 166 dental implants between September 2015 and November 2017 in two private dental clinics, were included in this study. Patient and implant characteristics, surgical procedures, primary stability, prosthetic rehabilitation, failure analysis, and survival rates were analyzed.

The effect on the performance of a dynamic navigation system of superimposing a standard tessellation language (STL) file obtained with an intraoral scan on a cone beam computer tomograph (CBCT). An experimental in vitro study.

Objectives: To compare the accuracy and operative time of implant placement using a dynamic computer assisted implant surgery (dCAIS) system based on a cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) image, with and without superimposing a standard tessellation language (STL) file of an intraoral scan of the patient.

Methods: Ten identical resin models simulating an upper maxilla with posterior edentulism were assigned to two groups. In the CBCT+STL group, a CBCT file and an intraoral STL file were superimposed and used for registration; in the CBCT group, registration was performed using CBCT images.

Diagnosis and indications for the extraction of third molars - The SECIB clinical practice guideline.

Background: The removal of third molars (3Ms) is the most frequent surgical procedure in the field of Oral Surgery. As a result, the Spanish Society of Oral Surgery (SECIB) aims to create a Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) that offers evidence-based recommendations for optimal clinical practice. Specifically, the CPG will focus on providing guidance regarding the indications and criteria for clinical and radiological diagnosis of patients with 3Ms.
