What this trial studies
This clinical trial aims to assess the effectiveness of dynamic navigation technology in the placement of full-arch dental implants for patients with complete maxillary edentulism. It will analyze the anatomical features of the anterior maxillary bone using CBCT imaging to guide the placement of nasopalatine, trans-sinus, and trans-nasal implants. The study will evaluate the accuracy of these implant placements and their clinical effectiveness in rehabilitating patients with significant bone resorption. The trial will take place from 2024 to 2027 at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with complete edentulism of the upper arch and good overall health.
Not a fit: Patients with systemic conditions affecting surgery or bone integration, or those who smoke excessively, may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to more precise and effective dental implant placements, improving rehabilitation outcomes for patients with edentulous maxilla.
How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with dynamic navigation in dental implant placement, suggesting potential for success in this approach.
