Evaluating a navigation system for accurate implant placement in dental surgery
Accuracy of Dynamic Navigation System in Implant Surgery for Full Arch Prosthesis
This study tests a new navigation system to see if it helps place dental implants more accurately for patients getting full arch prostheses, comparing two different methods for guidance.

What this trial studies
This study evaluates the accuracy of a Dynamic Navigation System used for implant placement in patients requiring full arch prosthesis rehabilitation. Participants will be divided into two groups: one using bone screws as landmarks and the other using remaining teeth that need extraction. The study involves pre-surgery health screenings, CT scans for surgical planning, and post-surgery assessments to compare actual implant positions with planned positions. The goal is to determine which method provides more precise implant placement.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are patients aged 18 and older with total or partial tooth loss who are suitable for full arch implant-supported prosthesis rehabilitation.
Not a fit: Patients with serious medical conditions, limited mouth opening, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved accuracy in dental implant placements, enhancing patient outcomes and satisfaction.
How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with similar navigation systems in implant surgery, indicating potential for success in this approach.
