Advancing accuracy in guided implant placement: A comprehensive meta-analysis: Meta-Analysis evaluation of the accuracy of available implant placement Methods. J Dent 2023; 139:104748. [PMID: 37863173 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2023.104748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This meta-analysis aimed to determine the accuracy of currently available computer-assisted implant surgery (CAIS) modalities under in vitro conditions and investigate whether these novel techniques can achieve clinically acceptable accuracy. DATA In vitro studies comparing the postoperative implant position with the preoperative plan were included. Risk of bias was assessed using the Quality Assessment Tool For In Vitro Studies (QUIN Tool) and a sensitivity analysis was conducted using funnel plots. SOURCES A systematic search was performed on April 18, 2023, using the following three databases: MEDLINE (via PubMed), EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. No filters or restrictions were applied during the search. RESULTS A total of 5,894 studies were included following study selection. Robotic- and static CAIS (sCAIS) had the most accurate and clinically acceptable outcomes. sCAIS was further divided according to the guidance level. Among the sCAIS groups, fully guided implant placement had the greatest accuracy. Augmented reality-based CAIS (AR-based CAIS) had clinically acceptable results for all the outcomes except for apical global deviation. Dynamic CAIS (dCAIS) demonstrated clinically safe results, except for horizontal apical deviation. Freehand implant placement was associated with the greatest number of errors. CONCLUSIONS Fully guided sCAIS demonstrated the most predictable outcomes, whereas freehand sCAIS demonstrated the lowest accuracy. AR-based and robotic CAIS may be promising alternatives. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE To our knowledge, this is the first meta-analysis to evaluate the accuracy of robotic CAIS and investigate the accuracy of various CAIS modalities.

[DOI: 10.2174/1874210602014010035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background:
Computer-guided technologies are adopted in various fields of surgery to limit invasiveness and obtain patient benefits in terms of surgery duration and post-operative course. Surgical templates realized through CAD/CAM technologies are widely diffused in implant dentistry. The aim of this work is to propose, beyond implantology, the feasibility of application of 3D printed surgical templates in oral surgery procedures requiring osteotomies (like maxillary cyst enucleation and tooth disimpaction) in order to obtain accurate surgeries, avoid anatomical damage of surrounding structures and decrease patient’s morbidity, using a simple, low-cost protocol of fabrication.
Objective:
To provide a reliable CAD-CAM workflow for the realization of surgical templates in oral surgery.
Methods:
Three clinical scenarios are described: A maxillary canine disimpaction, a mandibular cyst removal, and an orthodontic miniscrew placement. Each one was managed using custom surgical templates realized using the proposed workflow. A Stereolithography (STL) file of maxillary structures was obtained by the use of a 3D medical image processing software (Materialise Mimics 20.0) a segmentation toolbox acquiring RX volumes by Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). Digital models of the teeth, acquired as STL files directly, are imported in the same 3D medical image processing freeware (Materialise Mimics 20.0) to merge STL files of maxillary structures and teeth. Data are transported into Blue Sky Plan 4.0 (Blue Sky Bio, LLC), a software for 3D implant guides fabrication, together with the DICOM images package of maxillary volumes to carry out the pre-surgical treatment planning. Anatomical structures at risk are identified; a contour of ideal incision shape and bone osteotomy extent is drawn. Finally, the resulting three-dimensional guide is digitally generated and the surgical guide printed. The resulting 3D template shows the following major features: teeth support, flap management and bone osteotomy design.
Results:
The proposed work-flow aided the surgeon in both pre-operative and intra-operative work phases through accurate virtual planning and the fabrication of precise surgical guides to be used in oral surgery practice. In each clinical scenario, the use of custom 3D templates allowed better control of the osteotomy planes and flap management. No adverse events occurred during both surgical and healing phases.
Conclusion:
The proposed digital workflow represents a reliable and straightforward way to produce a surgical guide for oral surgery procedures. These templates represent a versatile tool in maxillary cyst enucleations, tooth disimpaction, and other surgical procedures, increasing accuracy, minimizing surgical complications, and decreasing patient’s morbidity.

Abstract
Here, we report a case of dental implant treatment involving computer-assisted surgery for bilateral agenesis of the maxillary lateral incisors. The patient was a 39-year-old woman with the chief complaint of functional and esthetic disturbance due to maxillary and mandibular malocclusion. The treatment plan comprised non-extraction comprehensive orthodontic treatment and prosthodontic treatment for space due to the absence of bilateral maxillary lateral incisors. A preliminary examination revealed that the mesiodistal spaces left by the absent bilateral maxillary lateral incisors were too narrow for implant placement (right, 5.49 mm; left, 5.51 mm). Additional orthodontic treatment increased these spaces to approximately 6 mm, the minimum required for implant placement if risk of damage to the adjacent teeth due to inaccuracies in directionality of drilling is to be avoided. For dental implant treatment with computer-assisted surgery, preoperative planning/simulation was performed using Simplant® ver.12 software and a toothsupported surgical template fabricated using stereolithography. Two narrow-diameter implants were placed in a two-stage procedure. It was confirmed that there was sufficient distance between the implant fixtures and the roots of the adjacent teeth, together with no exposure of alveolar bone. Following a 4-month non-loading period, second-stage surgery and provisional restoration with a temporary screw-retained implant crown were performed. Cement-retained superstructures made of customized zirconia abutment and a zirconia-bonded ceramic crown were fitted as the final restoration. At 5 years after implant surgery, there were no complications, including inflammation of the peri-implant soft tissue and resorption of peri-implant bone. Computer-assisted implant surgery is useful in avoiding complications in bilateral agenesis of the maxillary lateral incisors when only a narrow mesiodistal space is available for implant placement.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing is becoming increasingly important in dentistry for the production of surgical guides. The development of cost-effective desktop stereolithography (SLA) printing systems and the corresponding resins makes this novel technique accessible to dental offices and dental laboratories. The aim of the study was to reveal the response of soft tissue cells to Clear and Dental SG resins used in desktop SLA printing systems at different stages of processing. Cell activity of L929 cells and gingival fibroblasts (GF) in response to the materials was examined in indirect and direct monolayer culture models and a direct spheroid culture model based on MTT, resazurin-based toxicity assays, and live-dead staining. Overall we found that the impact of Clear and Dental SG resins on L929 and GF depends on the processing stage of the materials. Liquid Clear resin induced a stronger reduction of cell activity compared to Dental SG resin. Printing and postcuring reduced the impact on cell activity and viability. As in-house 3D printing for surgical guides is getting integrated in the digital workflow, our data suggest that careful adherence to processing guidelines-especially postcuring-is of clinical relevance.

An advanced navigational surgery system for dental implants completed in a single visit: an in vitro study. J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2014; 43:117-25. [PMID: 25434287 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2014.10.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2014] [Revised: 07/31/2014] [Accepted: 10/22/2014] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, we have developed an advanced navigational implant surgery system to overcome some disadvantages of the conventional method and have evaluated the accuracy of the system under in vitro environment. The patient splint for registration and tracking was improvised using a bite splint without laboratory work and the offset of an exchanged drill was calibrated directly without pivoting during surgery. The mean target registration errors (TRE) were 0.35 ± 0.11 mm using the registration body, 0.34 ± 0.18 mm for the registration method with prerecorded fiducials, and 0.35 ± 0.16 mm for the direct calibration of a drill offset. The mean positional deviations between the planned and placed implants in 110 implant surgeries were 0.41 ± 0.12 mm at the center point of the platform and 0.56 ± 0.14 mm at the center point of the apex. The mean angular deviation was 2.64°± 1.31 for the long axis of the implant. In conclusion, the developed system exhibited high accuracy, and the improved tools and simplified procedures increased the convenience and availability. With this advanced approach, it will be possible to complete dental implant surgery during a single visit at local clinics using a navigational guidance involving cone-beam computed tomographic images.

Abstract
Purpose An individual surgical stent fabricated from computed tomography (CT) data, called a CT-guided stent, would be useful for accurate installation of implants. The purpose of the present study was to introduce a newly developed CT-guided stent with a simple design and evaluate the accuracy of the stent placement. Materials and Methods A resin template was fabricated from a hog mandible and a specially designed plastic plate, with 4 metal balls inserted in it for radiographic recognition, was attached to the occlusal surface of the template. With the surgical stent applied, CT images were taken, and virtual implants were placed using software. The spatial positions of the virtually positioned implants were acquired and implant guiding holes were drilled into the surgical stent using a specially designed 5-axis drilling machine. The surgical stent was placed on the mandible and CT images were taken again. The discrepancy between the central axis of the drilled holes on the second CT images and the virtually installed implants on the first CT images was evaluated. Results The deviation of the entry point and angulation of the central axis in the reference plane were 0.47±0.27 mm, 0.57±0.23 mm, and 0.64±0.16°, 0.57±0.15°, respectively. However, for the two different angulations in each group, the 20° angulation showed a greater error in the deviation of the entry point than did the 10° angulation. Conclusion The CT-guided template proposed in this study was highly accurate. It could replace existing implant guide systems to reduce costs and effort.

Abstract
PURPOSE One of the most important factors affecting the outcome of dental implantation is the accurate insertion of the implant into the patient's jaw bone, which requires a high degree of anatomical accuracy. With the accuracy and stability of robots, image-guided robotics is expected to provide more reliable and successful outcomes for dental implantation. Here, we proposed the use of a robot for drilling the implant site in preparation for the insertion of the implant. METHODS An image-guided robotic system for automated dental implantation is described in this paper. Patient-specific 3D models are reconstructed from preoperative Cone-beam CT images, and implantation planning is performed with these virtual models. A two-step registration procedure is applied to transform the preoperative plan of the implant insertion into intra-operative operations of the robot with the help of a Coordinate Measurement Machine (CMM). Experiments are carried out with a phantom that is generated from the patient-specific 3D model. Fiducial Registration Error (FRE) and Target Registration Error (TRE) values are calculated to evaluate the accuracy of the registration procedure. RESULTS FRE values are less than 0.30 mm. Final TRE values after the two-step registration are 1.42 ± 0.70 mm (N = 5). CONCLUSIONS The registration results of an automated dental implantation system using image-guided robotics are reported in this paper. Phantom experiments show that the practice of robot in the dental implantation is feasible and the system accuracy is comparable to other similar systems for dental implantation.

Abstract
PURPOSE We evaluated an innovative approach for conventional surgical or transmucosal implantation applying backward planning with bone oriented crown down implant positions, followed by immediate restoration. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our workflow combined computer-assisted preoperative planning with the well-known intraoperative handling of surgical templates. To guarantee optimal accuracy, the complete process was bone borne, not soft tissue borne. Furthermore, in this concept, the definite prosthesis was manufactured on a plaster cast and fixed with technical implants inserted into the model using the same drilling template applied for intraoperative guidance of the drill. This bone-based workflow avoids the accumulation of errors throughout all steps of the treatment. In the present study, we have provided a concise quantitative quality control using 4 in vivo implants. This goal was accomplished by image matching of the preoperative plan with the corresponding postoperative computed tomography scan, applying descriptive statistics, the 1-sample t test, and the Student t test. RESULTS Statistical evaluation showed that the bone-borne drilling template provides sufficient accuracy for immediate restoration with the definite prosthesis at the end of the operation. Deviation in the apex plane was 0.8 ± 0.42 mm, with 0.33 at the maximum. The angular deviation was 3.18° ± 0.78°. CONCLUSIONS Our workflow is a promising approach with respect to handling, accuracy, and intraoperative safety.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In edentulous patients, accurate and stable positioning of a surgical template is impeded by the mobile mucosal tissue. The objective was to evaluate the accuracy of flapless computer-assisted template-guided surgery in an edentulous human cadaver specimen using three fixed oral reference points (FRP) for fixation of the registration mouthpiece and the consecutive surgical template. MATERIAL AND METHODS Oral implants were planned on the computed tomography (CT) of an edentulous human cadaver specimen. Surgical templates have been fabricated using a multipurpose navigation system. Both the registration mouthpiece and consecutive surgical template were supported via three FRP. Study implants were inserted through the guide sleeves and the accuracy was evaluated on a post-surgical CT of the cadaver jaws fused with the pre-surgical planning CT. A Matlab script enabled comparison of the planned surgical path with the study implants. RESULTS In five maxillary and three mandibular edentulous human cadaver specimens, a total of 51 implants (35 implants in the maxilla and 16 implants in the mandible) have been placed. The mean+/-standard deviation total error (Euclidean distance)/lateral error (normal deviation) were 1.1+/-0.6/0.7+/-0.5 mm at the implant base and 1.2+/-0.7/0.9+/-0.7 mm at the implant tip. The mean angular error was 2.8+/-2.2 degrees. CONCLUSIONS Flapless surgery based on FRP-supported image-guided surgical templates may provide similar accuracy as reported for tooth-supported surgical templates or surgical navigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE In computer-assisted implantation surgery, the transfer of prosthodontic-guided planning to the operative site is usually based on a registration template. The precise repositioning of the registration template is crucial for high accuracy and is compromised in edentulous jaws. The purpose was to determine the in vitro registration and targeting accuracy for surgical navigation in the edentulous jaw based on 3 fixed intraoral reference points. MATERIALS AND METHODS Edentulous maxilla and mandible cadaver specimens were provided with 3 fixed reference-point screws. A resin template with matrices for the fixed reference-point screws was produced and connected to a Vogele-Bale-Hohner registration mouthpiece and external registration frame with a snap-lock system. Surgical implants were planned on computed tomographic data and the corresponding dental stone casts were drilled under guidance of an optical navigation system. For evaluation of the registration accuracy, fiducial registration error was recorded and application accuracy was evaluated by fusion of postsurgical computed tomographic scans of the drilled dental stone casts with the presurgical planning computed tomogram. RESULTS In 9 maxillas and 5 mandibles, 14 registrations and 104 stone cast drillings were performed. The mean fiducial registration error was 0.49 +/- 0.14 mm (0.37 to 0.9 mm). The mean total error at the tip of the borehole was 0.88 +/- 0.65 mm (0.0 to 4.24 mm). The mean lateral errors were 0.51 +/- 0.49 mm (0.0 to 2.80 mm) at the base and 0.46 +/- 0.34 mm (0.0 to 1.5 mm) at the tip of the borehole, respectively. The mean angular error was 0.83 +/- 0.60 degrees (0.0 to 2.5 degrees ). CONCLUSION Three fixed intraoral reference points successfully support a registration mouthpiece and provide in vitro registration and targeting accuracy that is comparable to tooth-supported registration templates or bone marker registration.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of implant placement after virtual planning of implant positions using cone-beam CT data and surgical guide templates, and to match the results with those achieved with the conventional free-hand method. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-three implants were placed in 10 patients with a Kennedy Class II with 3-dimensional (3-D) planned surgical guide template. Manual implantation was performed in anatomical casts of the same patients by a prosthodontist and a maxillofacial surgeon. Postoperative images of casts were superimposed onto the preoperative image of virtual planned ideal position of the implant. RESULTS The 3-D surgical guide template produced significantly smaller variation between the planned and actual implant positions at the implant shoulder (0.9 mm (0-4.5)) and apex (0.6-0.9 mm (0.0-3.4)) compared with the free-hand implantation (2.4-3.5 mm (0.0-7.0); p=0.000 and 2.0-2.5 mm (0.0-7.7); p=0.002). Accuracy of axis was also significantly improved. CONCLUSIONS Accuracy of implant placement after virtual planning of implant position using cone-beam CT data and surgical templates is high and significantly more accurate than free-hand insertion. The demonstrated method of superimposing radiographic images of postoperative casts and virtual planning images is a useful method, which allows reduced patient radiation exposure.

Abstract
PROBLEM Surgical navigation and navigation-controlled instruments demand a robust and precise patient registration process. For navigation in the skull, a bite-splint-based registration method has been widely applied, which had to be manufactured by dental technicians. The additional cost and time could be avoided by directly using the manufactured imprint, which is prepared by the ENT surgeon in one step. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study examined the re-positioning accuracy for three silicon materials in a laboratory study with a 3D measuring device (Faro-arm) after several re-positioning cycles (simulating erosion) in comparison to the gold standard. RESULTS The mean deviation after two cycles was lower for all three materials compared to the gold standard. Only C-Silikon Optosil was better then the gold standard after all cycles and with a deviation of 0.17 mm it well below that of the conventional bite-splint (0.28 mm). The additional cost benefits of 10 euro per imprint compared to the bite-splint with >100 euro favor this material for clinical application. CONCLUSIONS As a consequence of this investigation Optosil was successfully used in 6 patients during the period from 01.09.2007 to 30.11.2007. The bite-splint was manufactured completely in the ENT department and could be used during the planning CT and surgery. The resulting accuracy corresponded to the experiences gained in previous surgery with a maximum deviation of 0.87 mm. The favorable ergonomic characteristics for patient and surgeon could be confirmed. As a result of this study this clinic now exclusively uses the procedure described in this article for bite-splint-based registration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Semi-invasive foramen ovale electrodes (FOEs) are used as an alternative to invasive recording techniques in the presurgical evaluation of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. To maximize patient safety and interventional success, frameless stereotactic FOE placement by use of a variation of an upper jaw fixation device with an external fiducial frame, in combination with an aiming device and standard navigation software, was evaluated by the Innsbruck Epilepsy Surgery Program. METHODS Patients were immobilized noninvasively with the Vogele-Bale-Hohner headholder (Medical Intelligence GmbH, Schwabmünchen, Germany) to plan computed tomography and surgery. Frameless stereotactic cannulation of the foramen and intracranial electrode placement were achieved with the help of an aiming device mounted to the base plate of the headholder. Ease of applicability, safety, and results obtained with foramen ovale recording were investigated. RESULTS Twenty-six FOEs were placed in 13 patients under general anesthesia. The foramen ovale was successfully cannulated in all patients. One patient reported transient painful mastication after the procedure as a complication attributable to use of the Vogele-Bale-Hohner mouthpiece. In one patient, a persistent slight buccal hypesthesia was present 3 months after the procedure. To pass the foramen, slight adjustments in the needle position had to be made in 10 sides (38.4%). To place the intracranial electrodes, adjustments were necessary six times (23.7%). An entirely new path had to be planned once (3.8%). Seizure recording provided conclusive information in all patients (100%). Outcome in operated patients was Engel Class Ia in six patients, Class IId in one patient, Class IIb in one patient, and Class IVa in one patient (minimum follow-up, 6 mo). CONCLUSION The Vogele-Bale-Hohner headholder combined with an external registration frame eliminates the need for invasive head clamp fixation. FOE placement can be planned "offline" and performed under general anesthesia later. This can be valuable in patients with distorted anatomy and/or small foramina or in patients not able to undergo the procedure under sedation. Results are satisfactory with regard to patient safety, patient comfort, predictability, and reproducibility. FOEs supported further treatment decisions in all patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We assessed the reliability of implant placement after virtual planning of implant positions using cone-beam CT data and surgical guide templates. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 102 patients (250 implants, 55.4% mandibular; mean patient age, 40.4 years) who had undergone implant treatment therapy in an armed forces dental clinic (Cologne, Germany) between July 1, 2005 and December 1, 2005. They were treated with a system that allows transfer of virtual planning to surgical guide templates. RESULTS Only in eight cases the surgical guides were not used because a delayed implant placement was necessary. In four posterior mandibular cases, handling was limited because of reduced interocclusal distance, requiring 50% shortening of the drill guides. The predictability of implant size was high: only one implant was changed to a smaller diameter (because of insufficient bone). In all cases, critical anatomical structures were protected and no complications were detected in postoperative panoramic radiographs. In 58.1% (147) of the 250 implants, a flapless surgery plan was realized. CONCLUSIONS Implant placement after virtual planning of implant positions using cone beam CT data and surgical templates can be reliable for preoperative assessment of implant size, position, and anatomical complications. It is also indicative of cases amenable to flapless surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ablative neurosurgical treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, including percutaneous radiofrequency thermocoagulation, requires cannulation of the foramen ovale. To maximize patient security and cannulation success, a frameless stereotactic system was evaluated in a phantom study, a cadaveric study, and a preliminary clinical trial. METHODS Frameless stereotaxy using an optical navigation system, an aiming device, and a noninvasive vacuum mouthpiece-based registration and patient fixation technique was used for the targeting of a test body based on 1-, 3-, and 5-mm axial computed tomographic slices and of the foramen ovale in three cadavers and 15 patients based on 3-mm axial computed tomographic slices. RESULTS The mean normal (x/y) localization accuracy/standard deviation (n = 360) was 1.31/0.67 mm (1-mm slices), 1.38/0.65 mm (3-mm slices), and 1.84/0.96 mm (5-mm slices). Significantly better results were achieved with 1- and 3-mm slices when compared with 5-mm slices (P < 0.001). The foramen ovale (3 x 6 mm) was successfully cannulated at the first attempt in all cadavers and patients, which indicates clinical localization accuracies better than 1.5 mm in the anteroposterior and 3 mm in the medial-lateral directions. CONCLUSION Based on the noninvasive Vogele-Bale-Hohner vacuum mouthpiece, there is no need for invasive head clamp fixation. Imaging, real laboratory simulation, and the actual surgical intervention can be separated in time and location. The presented data suggest that frameless stereotaxy is a predictable and reproducible procedure, which may enhance patient security and cannulation success independent of the surgeon's experience.

Abstract
Surgery in the cranial area includes complex anatomic situations with high-risk structures and high demands for functional and aesthetic results. Conventional surgery requires that the surgeon transfers complex anatomic and surgical planning information, using spatial sense and experience. The surgical procedure depends entirely on the manual skills of the operator. The development of image-guided surgery provides new revolutionary opportunities by integrating presurgical 3D imaging and intraoperative manipulation. Augmented reality, mechatronic surgical tools, and medical robotics may continue to progress in surgical instrumentation, and ultimately, surgical care. The aim of this article is to review and discuss state-of-the-art surgical navigation and medical robotics, image-to-patient registration, aspects of accuracy, and clinical applications for surgery in the cranial area.
