Purpose: To analyze the accuracy of implant position in simple cases by freehand.
Methods: Ninety-seven implants of 68 patients from 3 surgeons were selected.After operation,the deviations of implant position at shoulder apex and angle were measured using cone-beam CT(CBCT).The mean of three parameters were calculated with SPSS 22.0 software package, and the differences were analyzed between three surgeons,three operation areas,free-end missing and non free-end missing.
Results: The deviations of 97 implants were (0.76±0.57)mm,(1.41±0.90)mm,(4.76±3.68)° at shoulder, apex and angle.The deviation of shoulder apex and angle between three surgeons was significantly different(P<0.05). The deviations between left and right group were not significantly different (P>0.05); the deviations between anterior group and left group were significantly different(P<0.05); the deviations between anterior group and right group were not significantly different(P>0.05). The deviation of shoulder between free-end missing area and non free-end missing area was significantly different(P<0.05),other parameters between the two groups were not significantly different(P>0.05).
Conclusions: The deviation of implant placement between surgical guide and mental guide were similar in simple cases. The experience of surgeon was important during freehand implant placement. The deviations were lower when missing tooth is in anterior area than in posterior area, whereas the same at shoulder in non free-end missing area than in free-end missing area.

Objectives: This retrospective study aimed to investigate the differences in tooth loss rate between fixed implant-supported prostheses (FISPs) and removable partial dentures (RPDs) in cases of unilateral free-end missing teeth.
Materials And Methods: The data of 324 patients who underwent treatment with FISPs or RPDs for unilateral free-end missing teeth and satisfied the applicable criteria, were evaluated (47 in the FISPs group and 277 in the RPDs group). After propensity score (PS) matching, which was used to extract patients with similar background factors related to prosthetic selection at baseline, survival time analyses were performed with tooth loss as the endpoint.

Objectives: To evaluate the impact of guide stabilizers and their application sequences on implant placement accuracy of guided implant surgery in multiple teeth loss at free end.
Materials And Methods: In this study, 96 implants were placed in the regions of #34, #36, and #37 of 32 identical mandibular models. The influence of using guide stabilizers or not (group A and group B) and various guide stabilizers application sequences (group B: #34 → #36 → #37; group C: #36 → #34 → #37; group D: #37 → #34 → #36) on implant placement trueness and precision was investigated.

Background: Appropriate load distribution among the supporting elements is essential for the long-term success of implant-assisted removable partial dentures; however, there is little information available on load distribution.
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of implant location on load distribution in implant-assisted removable partial dentures by reviewing in vitro models and finite-element analysis studies.
Materials And Methods: English-language studies which examined the load distribution of implant-assisted removable partial dentures and were published between January 2001 and October 2022 were extracted from PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus online databases, and manual searching.

Correct implant placement is necessary for satisfactory implant restoration. Therefore, the use of surgical guide is recommended. This study evaluated the accuracy of implant placement in posterior edentulous areas with different levels of tooth-support by novice clinicians according to fully-guided (FG), pilot-guided (PG), and freehand (FH) placement protocols.

The occlusal force of the teeth in the dental arch and the remaining adjacent natural teeth will change after implant restoration with a free-end missing tooth. This study intends to use the T-SCAN III scanner to collect dynamic quantitative data before and after the restoration of free-end implants and to explore the application of the T-SCAN III in redistributing the occlusal force of free-end implants. In this study, 24 patients with free-end implant restoration were selected, and their occlusion was tested before, immediately after, and 3 months after implant restoration.
