Abstract
New surgical techniques using narrow, tilted implants positioned through a magneto-dynamic tool in guided surgery for a Toronto restoration. A 69-year-old woman wanted fixed rehabilitation to replace her removable complete dentures. A cone-beam computed tomography showed significant bone resorption in both the maxillary and mandibular regions. The plan was to load the entire upper arch with six implants immediately, while removable partial dentures were recommended for the lower jaw. The guided surgery project was aligned with the new dentures, and the laboratory created a printed cast with dental implant analogues in planned positions. A metal-reinforced denture was constructed, and surgery was performed to place six narrow implants using the magneto-dynamic instrument. The denture was directly screwed onto multi-unit abutments. Final rehabilitation was completed after 6 months. Narrow implants can be a good option for fixed, full-arch rehabilitations. Further research is needed to confirm these findings on a larger scale.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the precision and efficiency of a novel guide system for single implant placement in the mandibular symphyses and to evaluate whether the outcome is affected by the level of operator experience. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 90 implants were placed in three different mandibular cast types (Cawood and Howell class III, IV, and V). For each model, a complete denture was 3D printed. A polyether ether ketone rail with a guide sleeve was embedded in the middle of the denture. To determine the ideal implant position, the sleeve could be moved in a buccolingual direction. Adjustment of implant angulation was possible, and an angle correction of 0, 12, or 24 degrees was available. A total of 30 clinicians were divided into three groups: group 1 (experienced, n = 10), group 2 (beginner, n = 10), and group 3 (inexperienced, n = 10). Each clinician was asked to plan and perform a guided flapless implant placement in the mandibular symphysis. Two preoperative CBCT scans were taken; the first was to verify the planning, and the second was to adjust the planning if needed. Finally, a postoperative CBCT scan was taken to compare the planning to the final implant position. RESULTS Based on the first CBCT, the clinicians adjusted their planning by an average of 1.66 ± 1.65 mm coronally, 2.41 ± 2.44 mm apically, and by a mean angular correction of 6.08 ± 0.77 degrees. After implant placement, the mean deviation from the planned implant position was 0.87 ± 0.58 mm at the coronal aspect and 0.98 ± 0.64 mm at the apical aspect. The mean angular deviation was 6.05 ± 0.71 degrees. Overall, there were no significant differences in coronal and apical deviation (P > .05) based on the level of experience. In terms of angulation, a significant difference was found in both planning (P = .049) and placement (P = .038) between beginners and experienced clinicians. CONCLUSIONS Guided implant placement of a single implant in the mandibular symphysis using a removable denture with guide sleeve had an acceptable level of accuracy. Clinicians with limited experience spent more time on the procedure, resulting in less angular deviation during implant planning and placement compared to experienced clinicians.

Abstract
AIM The goal of this clinical report was to present an alternative to traditional flat bone reduction guides, using a custom-designed 3D printed guide according to the future gingival margin of the planned dentition. MATERIALS AND METHODS A 61-year-old female with concerns regarding her smile appearance was presented. The initial examination revealed excessive gingival show accompanied by excessive overjet. The dentition was in a failing situation. The proposed treatment plan, relying on the sufficient amount of bone and keratinized tissue, consisted of re-contouring of the alveolar ridge and gingiva and placement of six implants and a FP-1 prosthesis after extraction of all remaining maxillary teeth. RESULTS Digital smile design was completed, and a fully-digitally-guided surgery was planned. This consisted of utilizing three surgical guides. Starting with the fixation pin guide and continuing with the scalloped hard and soft tissue reduction guide and finally, the implant placement template. Following the surgery, the patient received a temporary restoration and on the 4-month follow-up, a new poly-methyl meta-acrylate temporary prosthesis was delivered. The patient's 7-month follow-up is presented in the paper. CONCLUSIONS The report of this triple-template guided surgery indicated that digital 3D planning is a considerably predictable tool to properly establish and evaluate future occlusal plane, smile line, and lip support. Scalloped guides seem to be an excellent alternative to conventional bone reduction guides since they require less bone removal and improve patient comfort during surgery.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Surgical guides might impede the flow of coolant to the implant drills during the preparation of the implant bed, potentially contributing to increased temperatures during bone drilling. The objective of this experimental study was to assess the cooling efficiency of various guiding cylinder designs for sleeveless surgical guides used in guided surgery. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, surgical guides with three different guiding cylinder designs were printed. One group had solid cylinders (control) and two test groups (cylinders with pores and cylinders with windows). Forty customized polyurethane blocks with type III bone characteristics were fitted into the guide and fixed in a vise, and implant bed preparations were completed using a simplified drilling protocol with and without irrigation. An infrared thermographic camera was used to record the temperature changes during drilling at the coronal, middle, and apical areas. ANOVA test and Games-Howell post hoc test were used to determine significant thermal differences among groups. Results: A significant thermal increase was observed at the coronal area in the group without irrigation (39.69 ± 8.82) (p < 0.05). The lowest thermal increase was recorded at the surgical guides with windows (21.451 ± 0.703 °C) compared to solid (25.005 ± 0.586 °C) and porous surgical guides (25.630 ± 1.004) (p < 0.05). In the middle and apical areas, there were no differences between solid and porous cylinders (p > 0.05). Conclusions: 3D-printed sleeveless surgical guides with window openings at the guiding cylinders reduce the temperature elevation at the cortical bone in guided implant surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Designed and applicated a modified customized CAD-CAM socket-shield preparation guide template in immediate implant and followed up for 3 years. CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS Socket-shield technique could improve the esthetic effect of immediate implant restorations by preserving the labial fascicular bone-periodontal complex at the implant site. While the socket-shield technique is highly technique-sensitive. A modified customized CAD/CAM guided template was designed and fabricated by 3D printing. The movement of the carbide bur during preparing the socket-shield was limited by the socket-shield preparation template. In this case report, the socket-shield preparation template was used for preparing the socket-shield in the tooth root with irregular morphology and the case was followed up for 3 years. CONCLUSIONS The modified CAD/CAM socket-shield preparation template effectively improved the accuracy and efficiency of preparing the socket-shield by limiting the movement of the high-speed carbide bur in both in both lip-to-palatal and crown-to-root orientation. The socket-shield with accurate morphology could effectively maintain the gingival marginal level and contour. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The modified CAD/CAM socket-shield preparation template with the depth-locking ring effectively reduced the technique sensitivity and time consumption of the socket-shield technique, especially for tooth roots with irregular morphology.

Abstract
The present study aimed to assess the concordance of preoperative and postoperative hard and soft tissues in patients with advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) following virtual surgical planning (VSP) mandibular reconstruction. In the present study, a cohort of 32 patients with OSCC underwent in-house VSP, followed by guided mandibular reconstruction utilizing vascularized free tissue grafts sourced from the fibula or scapula. A morphometric analysis was conducted comparing preoperative and postoperative three-dimensional virtual models to evaluate discrepancies and identify potential risk factors associated with poor reconstruction outcomes. The outcome variables were the differences in root mean square (RMS) and mean surface distance (MSD) resulting from the application of an iterative closest point algorithm to the virtual data. The validity of soft tissue comparison data is limited due to its susceptibility to various confounding variables. The present study conducted a comprehensive re-evaluation of these variables. High tumor stage, positive N status and the use of adjuvant therapy contributed to more noticeable differences in preoperative and postoperative facial soft tissue appearance. The accuracy of postoperative bone reconstruction results was higher in patients who underwent neomandibular formation using a fibular graft compared with those who received a scapular graft. Preoperative and postoperative soft tissue analyses were conducted for comparison. The MSD showed a deviation of 3.2 mm (± 2.0 mm SD; range 1.3-9.5 mm), whereas the RMS was 5.3 (± 2.9 SD; range 2.1-14). In conclusion, in-house VSP and guided mandibular reconstructions can yield clinically accurate results, preserving patient appearance and offering the advantage of rapid feasibility.

Abstract
Nano-sized carriers are widely studied as suitable candidates for the advanced delivery of various bioactive molecules such as drugs and diagnostics. Herein, the development of long-circulating stimuli-responsive polymer nanoprobes tailored for the fluorescently-guided surgery of solid tumors is reported. Nanoprobes are designed as long-circulating nanosystems preferably accumulated in solid tumors due to the Enhanced permeability and retention effect, so they act as a tumor microenvironment-sensitive activatable diagnostic. This study designs polymer probes differing in the structure of the spacer between the polymer carrier and Cy7 by employing pH-sensitive spacers, oligopeptide spacers susceptible to cathepsin B-catalyzed enzymatic hydrolysis, and non-degradable control spacer. Increased accumulation of the nanoprobes in the tumor tissue coupled with stimuli-sensitive release behavior and subsequent activation of the fluorescent signal upon dye release facilitated favorable tumor-to-background ratio, a key feature for fluorescence-guided surgery. The probes show excellent diagnostic potential for the surgical removal of intraperitoneal metastasis and orthotopic head and neck tumors with very high efficacy and accuracy. In addition, the combination of macroscopic resection followed by fluorescence-guided surgery using developed probes enable the identification and resection of most of the CAL33 intraperitoneal metastases with total tumor burden reduced to 97.2%.

Abstract
Digital workflows have become integral in orthodontic diagnosis and therapy, reducing risk factors and chair time with one-visit protocols. This study assessed the transfer accuracy of fully digital planned insertion guides for orthodontic mini-implants (OMIs) compared with freehanded insertion. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) datasets and intraoral surface scans of 32 cadaver maxillae were used to place 64 miniscrews in the anterior palate. Three groups were formed, two using printed insertion guides (A and B) and one with freehand insertion (C). Group A used commercially available customized surgical templates and Group B in-house planned and fabricated insertion guides. Postoperative CBCT datasets were superimposed with the planning model, and accuracy measurements were performed using orthodontic software. Statistical differences were found for transverse angular deviations (4.81° in A vs. 12.66° in B and 5.02° in C, p = 0.003) and sagittal angular deviations (2.26° in A vs. 2.20° in B and 5.34° in C, p = 0.007). However, accurate insertion depth was not achieved in either guide group; Group A insertion was too shallow (-0.17 mm), whereas Group B insertion was deeper (+0.65 mm) than planned. Outsourcing the planning and fabrication of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing insertion guides may be beneficial for certain indications; particularly, in this study, commercial templates demonstrated superior accuracy than our in-house-fabricated insertion guides.

Abstract
Computer-assisted implant planning has become a key diagnostic and therapeutic tool in modern dentistry. This case report emphasizes the possibilities in modern implantology combining virtual implant planning, guided surgery with surgical templates, and immediate function. A 75-year-old female presented with maxillary and mandibular dentures and wanted fixed replacement in minimal appointments. Diagnosis, decision-making, and treatment approaches were based on clinical findings and detailed virtual three-dimensional implant planning. Guided implant placement of six implants in each arch using Tall and Tilted Pin Hole Immediate Loading Technique (TTPHIL ALL TILT®), and immediate loading with a provisional fixed dental prosthesis (FDP) was performed fulfilling patient's functional and esthetic demands in a minimally invasive manner. The final computer-assisted design/computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) FDP with a titanium framework and ceramic layering was delivered after six months. At the three-year recall, the implant-supported FDP was free of any complications. Uneventful osseointegration of the dental implants and a healthy peri-implant mucosa were observed. Computer-assisted TTPHIL ALL TILT® technique including three-dimensional virtual implant planning, guided surgery, and CAD/CAM fabrication of provisional and final reconstructions allowed for a concise treatment workflow with favorable esthetic and functional outcomes in this maxillary and mandibular full-mouth case without the need of multiple surgeries in a short treatment time.

Abstract
AIM The present in vitro study aimed to compare the accuracy of the implant position inserted by surgical guides manufactured by three different 3D printers (one SLA and two DLP) and a subtractive manufacturing technique for a free-end situation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Surgical guides were manufactured using three different 3D printers, one SLA printer (Form 2; Formlabs) and two DLP printers (D20 II; Rapid Shape, and SolFlex 350; W2P Engineering). Surgical guides manufactured using the conventional CAD/CAM-based subtractive method served as controls. In total, 48 surgical guides were printed and assessed for accuracy. The guides were used for the placement of implants at tooth position 37. The postoperative implant position was digitally scanned for metric comparison with the preoperatively planned implant position. RESULTS Significant differences were found when the SLA and DLP printers were compared. The SLA printer showed significantly lower accuracy in implant displacement at crest (P = 0.032) and angular displacement (P = 0.049) compared with the two DLP printers. The DLP printers showed comparable values to the control group. The results were within an acceptable clinical range. CONCLUSION DLP technology seems to be superior to conventional SLA technology in terms of the accuracy of 3D-printed surgical guides when used for placement of implants in free-end situations.

Abstract
PURPOSE The present systematic review aimed to investigate the accuracy of zygomatic implant (ZI) placement using dynamic computer-aided surgery (d-CAIS), static computer-aided surgery (s-CAIS), and a free-hand approach in patients with severe atrophic edentulous maxilla and/or deficient maxilla. METHODS Electronic and manual literature searches until May 2023 were performed in the PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases. Clinical trials and cadaver studies were selected. The primary outcome was planned/placed deviation. Secondary outcomes were to evaluate the survival of ZI and surgical complications. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted and meta-regression was utilized to compare fiducial registration amounts for d-CAIS and the different designs of s-CAIS. RESULTS A total of 14 studies with 511 ZIs were included (Nobel Biocare: 274, Southern Implant: 42, SIN Implant: 16, non-mentioned: 179). The pooled mean ZI deviations from the d-CAIS group were 1.81 mm (95% CI: 1.34-2.29) at the entry point and 2.95 mm (95% CI: 1.66-4.24) at the apex point, and angular deviations were 3.49 degrees (95% CI: 2.04-4.93). The pooled mean ZI deviations from the s-CAIS group were 1.19 mm (95% CI: 0.83-1.54) at the entry point and 1.80 mm (95% CI: 1.10-2.50) at the apex point, and angular deviations were 2.15 degrees (95% CI: 1.43-2.88). The pooled mean ZI deviations from the free-hand group were 2.04 mm (95% CI: 1.69-2.39) at the entry point and 3.23 mm (95% CI: 2.34-4.12) at the apex point, and angular deviations were 4.92 degrees (95% CI: 3.86-5.98). There was strong evidence of differences in the average entry, apex, and angular deviation between the navigation, surgical guide, and free-hand groups (p < 0.01). A significant inverse correlation was observed between the number of fiducial screws and the planned/placed deviation regarding entry, apex, and angular measurements. CONCLUSION Using d-CAIS and modified s-CAIS for ZI surgery has shown clinically acceptable outcomes regarding average entry, apex, and angular deviations. The maximal deviation values were predominantly observed in the conventional s-CAIS. Surgeons should be mindful of potential deviations and complications regardless of the decision making in different guide approaches.

Abstract
A sinus floor elevation via lateral window (LSFE) is one of the most widely used bone augmentation procedures for implant therapy in the posterior area of the maxilla. Locating and preparing a correct opening window on the lateral sinus wall is a key step of this procedure. Conventionally, the surgeon designs and locates the window after the flap is reflected based on the information obtained from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images or other diagnostic aids. Nevertheless, in spite of the advancements in CBCT imaging, clinicians may still experience hardships in situating and procuring meticulous access to the maxillary sinus by using CBCT alone. Therefore, in cases requiring an LSFE simultaneous to implant placement, a maxillary sinus surgical guide has been tested and reported to be the amiable method to be utilized as a conjunct to prevent unpredictable consequences according to its application in implying both the direction for the implant and the location of the lateral window. This article presents 3 clinical cases with a fully digital approach to guide the opening of the lateral wall of the maxillary sinus as well as the simultaneous placement of a single implant in an ideal 3D position. Based on the CBCT images and intraoral scan, a surgical guide was fabricated based on 3D software. During surgery, this teeth-supported template can be placed intraorally, guiding sinus window opening preparation. This technique makes the sinus window opening procedure simple and predictable, reduces surgical time and the risk of complications, and allows the placement of the implant in the ideal 3D position.

Abstract
(1) Although the accuracy of static computer-aided implant surgery (sCAIP) is well reported, information on its long-term effect on peri-implant health and complications is scarce. (2) Twenty-six patients initially treated were recalled. Implant survival, radiographic bone level, peri-implant health, and complications were registered. A multilevel regression model was applied to study the relationship between the research variables. (3) Sixteen patients participated in this study (average age 58.5 years; range 27.8-73.8). The mean follow-up time was 9.1 years (range 7.3-11.3). Two implants failed, resulting in a survival rate of 97.1%. The mean bone level change corresponded to a loss of 0.63 mm (SD 1.90) for the whole group, 0.17 mm (SD 1.46), and 0.91 mm (SD 2.09) for tooth- and mucosa-supported guides, respectively. The mean PPD for the total group was 4.24 mm (SD 1.25), and 3.79 mm (SD 0.97) and 4.51 mm (SD 1.33) for the tooth- and mucosa-supported guides, respectively. Four implants (6.3%) were diagnosed with peri-implantitis. Coronal deviation was slightly associated with having a negative impact on bone level at follow-up, but this was not statistically significant. Seven patients (43.8%) experienced technical complications. Biological complications were seen in 3/16 patients (18.75%). (4) SCAIP may contribute to more predictable implant placement; the long-term clinical outcome is similar to conventional nonguided surgery.

Abstract
Digital impression provides several advantages in implant prosthodontics; however, its use in full-arch rehabilitations, especially immediately after surgery, has yet to be validated. The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyse the fit of immediate full-arch prostheses, fabricated using conventional or digital impressions. Patients requiring a full-arch immediate loading rehabilitation were divided into three groups: T1 (digital impression taken immediately after surgery), T2 (Preoperative digital impression, guided surgery-prefabricated temporary bridge) and C (conventional impression taken immediately after surgery). Immediate temporary prostheses were delivered within 24 h after surgery. X-rays were obtained at the time of prosthesis delivery and at the 2-year follow-up. Primary outcomes were cumulative survival rate (CSR) and prosthesis fit. Secondary outcomes were marginal bone level (MBL) and patient satisfaction. One hundred and fifty patients were treated from 2018 to 2020, with 50 in each group. Seven implants failed during the observation period. The CSR was 99% for T1, 98% for T2 and 99.5% for C. A statistically significant difference in prosthesis fit was found among T1 and T2 vs. C. A statistically significant difference was found in the MBL between T1 and C. The outcomes of the present study suggest that digital impression is a viable alternative to conventional protocols for the realisation of full-arch immediate loading prostheses.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the accuracy of a novel sleeveless implant surgical guide by comparing it with a conventional closed-sleeve guide and a freehand approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS Custom resin maxillary casts with corticocancellous compartments were used (n = 30). Seven implant sites were present per maxillary cast, corresponding to healed (right and left first premolars, left second premolar and first molar) and extraction sites (right canine and central incisors). The casts were assigned into three groups: freehand (FH), conventional closed-sleeve guide (CG) and surgical guide (SG) groups. Each group comprised 10 casts and 70 implant sites (30 extraction sites and 40 healed sites). Digital planning was used to design 3D printed conventional and surgical guide templates. The primary study outcome was implant deviation. RESULTS At extraction sites, the largest difference between groups occurred in angular deviation, where the SG group (3.80 ± 1.67 degrees) exhibited ~1.6 times smaller deviation relative to the FH group (6.02 ± 3.44 degrees; P = 0.004). The CG group (0.69 ± 0.40 mm) exhibited smaller coronal horizontal deviation compared to the SG group (1.08 ± 0.54 mm; P = 0.005). For healed sites, the largest difference occurred for angular deviation, where the SG group (2.31 ± 1.30 degrees) exhibited 1.9 times smaller deviation relative to the CG group (4.42 ± 1.51 degrees; P < 0.001), and 1.7 times smaller deviation relative to the FH group (3.84 ± 2.14 degrees). Significant differences were found for all parameters except depth and coronal horizontal deviation. For the guided groups, there were fewer significant differences between healed and immediate sites compared to the FH group. CONCLUSION The novel sleeveless surgical guide showed similar accuracy to the conventional closed-sleeve guide.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study compared the accuracy and efficiency of a novel static computer-aided surgical technique using a 3-dimensional (3D)-printed surgical guide (3D-SG) with a fully guided drill protocol (3D-SG FG) to the freehand (FH) osteotomy and root-end resection (RER). METHODS Forty-six roots from 2 cadaver heads were divided into 2 groups: 3D-SG FG (n = 23) and FH (n = 23). Cone-beam computed tomographic scans were taken preoperatively and postoperatively. The endodontic microsurgery was planned in Blue Sky Bio software, and the 3D-SG was designed and 3D printed. The osteotomy and RER were conducted using a guided twist drill diameter of 2 mm and an ascending tapered drill with diameters of 2.8/3.2, 3.2/3.6, 3.8/4.2, and 4.2 mm with respective guided drill guides. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional virtual deviations and angular deflection were calculated. Linear osteotomy measures and root resection angle were obtained. The osteotomy and RER time and the number of mishaps were recorded. RESULTS Two-dimensional and three-dimensional accuracy deviations and angular deflection were lower in the 3D-SG FG protocol than in the FH technique (P < .05). The height, length, and depth of the osteotomy and root resection angle were less in the 3D-SG FG protocol than in the FH technique (P < .05). The osteotomy and RER time with the 3D-SG FG protocol were less than the FH method (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of this cadaver-based study using denuded maxillary and mandibular jaws, 3D-SG FG protocol showed higher accuracy than FH osteotomy and RER. Moreover, the 3D-SG FG drill protocol significantly reduced the surgical time.

Abstract
In this case report, we demonstrate how the correct positioning of implants, associated with optimal gingival conditioning, and the correct choice of biomaterial can yield very predictable and fantastic aesthetic results. OBJECTIVE We aimed to use dental implants to rehabilitate the area of elements #11 and #21 in a satisfactory surgical and prosthetic manner, using guided surgery, connective tissue, nano-biomaterials, and a porcelain prosthesis. CASE REPORT A 32-year-old male patient presented with bone loss of elements #11 and #21, which was proven radiographically and clinically. Thus, oral rehabilitation with the use of dental implants was required. It was decided to proceed via digital planning with the DSD program (Digital smile design) and with the software Exoplan, (Smart Dent-Germany) whenever it was possible to plan immediate provisional and accurate dental implant positioning through reverse diagnostics (Software Exoplan, Smart Dent-German). The dental elements were extracted atraumatically; then, a guide was established, the implants were positioned, the prosthetic components were placed, the conjunctive tissue was removed from the palate and redirected to the vestibular wall of the implants, the nano-graft (Blue Bone®) was conditioned in the gaps between the vestibular wall and the implants, and, finally, the cemented provision was installed. RESULTS After a 5-month accompaniment, an excellent remodeling of the tissues had been achieved by the implants; consequently, the final prosthetic stage could begin, which also achieved a remarkable aesthetic result. CONCLUSIONS This report demonstrates that the correct planning of dental implants, which is associated with appropriate soft tissue and bone manipulation, allows for the achievement of admirable clinical results.

Abstract
PURPOSE Metal sleeves are commonly used in implant guides for guided surgery. Cost and sleeve specification limit the applications. This in vitro study examined the differences in the implant position deviations produced by a digitally designed surgical guide with no metal sleeve in comparison to a conventional one with a metal sleeve. MATERIALS AND METHODS The experiment was conducted in two steps for each step: n = 20 casts total, 10 casts each group; Step 1 to examine one guide from each group with ten implant placements in a dental cast, and Step 2 to examine one guide to one cast. Implant placement was performed using a guided surgical protocol. Postoperative cone-beam computed tomography images were made and were superimposed onto the treatment-planning images. The implant horizontal and angulation deviations from the planned position were measured and analyzed using t-test and F-test (p = 0.05). RESULTS For Step 1 and 2, respectively, implant deviations for the surgical guide with sleeve were -0.3 ±0.17 mm and 0.15 ±0.23 mm mesially, 0.60 ±1.69 mm, and -1.50 ±0.99 mm buccolingual at the apex, 0.20 ±0.47 mm and -0.60 ±0.27 mm buccolingual at the cervical, and 2.73° ±4.80° and -1.49° ±2.91° in the buccolingual angulation. For Step 1 and 2, respectively, the implant deviations for the surgical guide without sleeve were -0.17 ±0.14 mm and -0.06 ±0.07 mm mesially, 0.35 ±1.04 mm and -1.619 ±1.03 mm buccolingual at the apex, 0.10 ±0.27 mm and -0.62 ±0.27 mm buccolingual at the cervical, and 1.73° ±3.66° and -1.64° ±2.26° in the buccolingual angulation. No statistically significant differences were found in any group except for mesial deviation of the Step 2 group (F-test, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS A digitally designed surgical guide with no metal sleeve demonstrates similar accuracy but higher precision compared to a surgical guide with a metal sleeve. Metal sleeves may not be required for guided surgery.

Abstract
The aim of this case report is to describe the combination of a surgical guide with a temporary restoration to streamline the implant process. A 54-year-old male patient presenting with partial edentulism underwent computer-aided template-guided implant placement for the replacement of the missing upper second right incisor. The presented technique was used during the surgical procedures; it introduced the integration of a surgical guide into the temporary fixed partial denture. Using computer-aided design, computer-aided manufacturing technology and virtual implant planning, a temporary-implantation fixed partial denture was constructed, and a guidance sleeve was implemented into it. The implant bed preparation was then performed using the bridge as a surgical guide. After osteotomy, the guidance sleeve within the bridge was sealed, and the bridge was temporarily incorporated for submerged healing of the implant. The use of a temporary restoration as a surgical guide seems to make the digital workflow of guided implant placement more efficient by achieving a representative clinical outcome.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the accuracy of tridimensional (3D)-printed guide-assisted flapless cortical bone micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) in the anterior mandible on a cadaver model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five human cadaver heads with complete dentition in the anterior mandible were used in the present study. Preplanning CBCT and intraoral surface scans were obtained. After alignment, drilling sites in the interradicular areas were planned from canine to canine, and a surgical guide was printed. The drilling was performed and a postprocedure CBCT scan was obtained to assess the accuracy of the procedure in relation to the virtual planning. RESULTS The mean ± standard deviation (SD) mesiodistal interradicular space was 2.67 ± 0.84 mm. The mean ± SD error of the actual drilled hole compared with the planned position of the mesial drill site was 0.66 ± 0.33 mm, and to the distal drill site it was 0.56 ± 0.33 mm. There was a statistically significant difference between the number of times the teeth were hit mesially (10 out of 64 holes) and distally (none). CONCLUSIONS The proposed technique, limited to an ex vivo scenario, provides a valid and reliable method for mandibular MOPs using a 3D-generated surgical guide. However, the risk of damaging adjacent radicular surfaces, particularly in areas with limited mesiodistal interradicular bone, needs to be considered. Further studies should focus on using thinner drills and adding other methods to stabilize the guide. Additionally, by selecting individuals and perforation sites with more mesiodistal interradicular bone, less damage is likely. (Int J Comput Dent 2022;25(4):387-0; doi: 10.3290/j.ijcd.b2599841).

Abstract
Robotic systems have emerged in dental implant surgery due to their accuracy. Autonomous robotic surgery may offer unprecedented advantages over conventional alternatives. This clinical protocol was used to show the feasibility of autonomous robotic surgery for immediately loaded implant-supported full-arch prostheses in the maxilla. This case report demonstrated the surgical protocol and outcomes in detail, highlighting the pros and cons of the autonomous robotic system. Within the limitations of this study, autonomous robotic surgery could be a feasible alternative to computer-assisted guided implant surgery.

Abstract
AIM The purpose of the present study was to report early surgical template-related and postoperative complications of computer-guided implant placement and to evaluate its accuracy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were collected retrospectively from records of patients who had undergone computer-guided implant surgery between 2016 and 2018. Incidence of early surgical template-related and postoperative complications was recorded. Accuracy of implant placement was evaluated by comparing the data from postoperative CBCT records with that from the preoperative virtual implant planning by using appropriate image registration software. Depth, coronal, apical, and angular deviations were measured. RESULTS A final number of 27 partially edentulous patients who received 52 implants with 31 static surgical templates were included in the study. All implants had been inserted in a fully guided manner using a flapless technique and following a one-stage approach. All implants were reported to have been successfully osseointegrated. Except for one template fracture, no other complication was recorded. The mean depth deviation was 0.57 ± 0.4 mm (95% CI 0.48 to 0.71 mm), the mean coronal deviation was 0.89 ± 0.7 mm (95% CI 0.73 to 1.07 mm), the mean apical deviation was 1.4 ± 1 mm (95% CI 1.16 to 1.71 mm), and the mean angular deviation was 2.74 ± 1.8 degrees (95% CI 2.29 to 3.26 degrees). CONCLUSION The use of static surgical templates for fully guided implant placement demonstrated acceptable clinical performance. However, there are some factors affecting accuracy that should be considered during implant planning and surgery for further improvement of the technique.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to assess the angular and linear deviations of implants installed in mannequins aided by surgical guides produced with the techniques of dual tomography (DT), model-based tomography (MT), and nonprototyped guide. MATERIALS AND METHODS Implants were installed in mannequins of a partially edentulous maxilla and divided into three groups: Group C (n = 20), implants installed using the conventional technique with flap opening and conventional guide; Group DT (n = 20), implants installed using guided surgery with the dual tomography technique; and Group MT (n = 20), implants installed using the model-based tomography technique. After implant installation, the mannequin was subjected to a computed tomography (CT) to measure the linear and angular deviations of implant positioning relative to the initial planning on both sides. RESULTS There was a higher mean angular deviation in group C (4.61 ± 1.21, p ≤ 0.001) than in groups DT (2.13 ± 0.62) and MT (1.87 ± 0.94), which were statistically similar between each other. Similarly, the linear deviations showed group C with the greatest discrepancy in relation to the other groups in the crown (2.17 ± 0.82, p = 0.007), central (2.2 ± 0.77, p = 0.004), and apical (2.34 ± 0.8, p = 0.001) regions. CONCLUSION The techniques of DT and MT presented smaller angular and linear deviations than the conventional technique with the nonprototyped guide. There was no difference between the two-guided surgery techniques.

Abstract
This case report describes a novel approach of guided autotransplantation of tooth so that we can assess its feasibility, accuracy, and stability. In the present case, autotransplantation of a third molar at the recipient site of mandibular first molar was done. Three-dimensional (3D) replica of donor tooth along with surgical guiding template was virtually designed and fabricated using 3D printing. The 3D replica and surgical template helped in the surgical modification of recipient site and placement of donor tooth in the exact position. Root canal treatment of the donor tooth was carried out after 2 weeks. At 6 months' follow-up, the transplanted tooth was functional with no evidence of mobility or periodontal inflammation. Radiographic evaluation showed the absence of widening of periodontal space and external root resorption. Hence, the transplantation of the third molar is an outstanding procedure for replacing a lost permanent molar tooth which in turn restores esthetics and function.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study measured the duration, deviation and operator's perception of implant placement by fully guided (FG), pilot-guided (PG) and freehand (FH) protocols by postgraduate students with minimal implant experience. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty postgraduate students participated in the study. Half of them placed single anterior (S-Ant) and single posterior (S-Post) implants, and the other half placed anterior (B-Ant) and posterior (B-Post) implants in a wide edentulous area. The PG placement involved surgical guides that only controlled pilot drilling, whilst the FG placement controlled all the drilling steps and implant placement. The duration of implant placement and the operator's perception (ease of drilling, ease of implant placement and operator's preference) were measured. The deviations of placed implants were quantified by measuring the trueness and angulation deviations in relation to the planned implants. RESULTS The PG placement was the quickest for inserting implants, followed by FG and FH placements, respectively (p < .05). The location of the implant had influenced the duration of implant placement only for the PG placement. In relation to ease of drilling, ease of implant placement and operator's preference, there was no significant difference amongst the different placement protocols or implant locations. The FG placement was associated with least deviations, followed by PG and FH placements, respectively (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS In the hands of postgraduate students with minimal implant experience, FG and PG placements reduced the implant placement duration in comparison with FH placement. The FG placement was consistently more accurate followed by PG placement.

Abstract
For patients with existing implants in need of additional implant placement, the use of the existing implants for guide fixation seems to be a logical alternative. Current options for the fabrication of surgical guides involve creating surgical guides that are mucosa-borne and/or retained by fixation pins. Since these existing techniques involve inherent inaccuracies, the fabrication of surgical guides that are screw-retained at the implant- or abutment-level would eliminate the introduction of those same fundamental inaccuracies. The purpose of the present technical report is to illustrate a step-by-step digitally planned guided implant placement protocol for terminal dentition patients with salvageable existing implants requiring full-arch implant rehabilitation. The advantages of this protocol include enhancing the accuracy of guided implant placement with screw-retention vs the traditional mucosa- or fixation pin support. Thus, this simplifies the transition from failing teeth to implants by ensuring that fixed provisionalization serves both functional and esthetic requirements. This protocol can also predictably reduce chairside time and adjustments at the surgical implant placement appointment. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
This case report presents a novel approach for minimally invasive fully guided apicoectomy of the palatal root of a maxillary first molar using a custom-made 3D-printed template. To date, the development of diagnostic radiographic tools such as high-resolution CBCT devices, as well as of CAD planning software and CAM technologies, like 3D printing, allow for increased application in endodontics. The patient (a 38-year-old woman) suffered from pain on the right side of the face since 4 weeks and was diagnosed with chronic apical periodontitis of the palatal root of the maxillary right first molar. The root treatment of this tooth was followed up recently and the buccal roots showed no pathologic findings. A guided apicoectomy with access from the palate was chosen as elective therapy. 3D radiographic and intraoral surface datasets were imported into an implant planning software and superimposed, and minimally invasive access to the palatal root apex was planned. Subsequently, a tooth-supported drilling template was designed and created by additive manufacturing. A flapless approach was adapted using a punch-drill and the access to the root apex as well as the apical resection were performed with a trephine drill. The connective tissue punch was finally replaced and sutured. No postoperative complication was reported and a complete remission of symptoms was reported after 2 weeks. The follow-up after 21 months showed clinically stable wound conditions and radiologically a slight reossification in the area of the palatal root tip. The presented technique may lead to novel minimally invasive approaches for the preservation of infected maxillary molars.

Abstract
PURPOSE Aggressive implant macrothread designs have been widely used. However, the effects of the aggressive thread design on the accuracy of static guided surgery, especially in a case of narrow residual ridge, have not been well-studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of two different implant macrothread designs and the residual ridge widths on the accuracy of tooth-supported static guided implant surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty implant fixtures with two different macrodesigns: a conventional thread design bone level tapered (BLT), and an aggressive thread design bone level tapered (BLX) were placed in 40 simulated polyurethane models with narrow and wide residual ridges. The placed implant positions were compared with the planned implant position and angulational deviation, as well as three-dimensional (3D) deviations at the entry and apex of the implant were measured. One-way ANOVA with Tukey's multiple comparisons (ɑ = 0.05) were used to determine level of significance between the mean and variance deviation values. 95% confidence intervals and box plots were used to demonstrate the means and ranges of precision. RESULTS In terms of angulational deviation, there was no statistically significant difference in the mean deviations for both types of implants, p = 1.55 and p = 0.84 for wide and narrow ridge groups, respectively. However, the range of deviation was much larger in the narrow ridge of the BLX group compared to the BLT group. In both narrow ridge and wide ridge, the BLX group had lower mean 3D deviation values at both the entry and the apex with statistically significant differences for both entry point of the wide ridge (p = 0.027) and narrow ridge (p = 0.022) as well as at the apex of the wide ridge (p = 0.006) but not the apex of the narrow ridge (p = 0.142). CONCLUSION The aggressive larger thread design of dental implants may influence the accuracy of implant placement more than the ridge dimension.

Abstract
Guided implant surgery can enhance implant placement positioning, increasing predictability and decreasing postoperative complications., To date, the best protocol to be used for template realization is still unknown. Thus, the aim herein was to clinically compare the accuracy of two different protocols. A total of 48 implants were divided into Group A (24 implants), in which a stereolithographic template was realized using the digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) data arrived from cone beam computer tomographies (CBCTs) (patients and prothesis alone), and Group B (24 implant), in which a standard intraoral stent with a standardized extraoral support was used for patients’ intraoral impressions and CBCT. The preimplant virtual planning and postsurgery CBCT images of both groups were superimposed, and differences were registered in terms of average deviations at the platform (a) and implant apex (b), mean depth change (c), and angular deviation (d). The results demonstrated that there were no statistically significant differences between groups (p = 0.76) for the parameters measured. However, statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) were found between maxillary and mandible implant surgery, as the latter showed greater accuracy. Additional studies are necessary to further reduce discrepancies between planning and surgical procedures.

Abstract
Treatment planning for the transition of patients from terminal dentition to full-arch implant rehabilitation poses challenges. Such challenges pertain to achieving the new orientation of the occlusal and esthetic plane as well as the change of vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO), while the fixed provisionalization using a digital workflow, still tends to be considered complex and hard to perform. This article illustrates step-by-step the utilization of a digital workflow protocol in the treatment planning for rehabilitation of terminal dentition patients, simplifying the smile design and ensuring that fixed provisionalization serves both the functional and esthetic requirements. This protocol includes facially-driven, three-dimensional (3D) digital smile design and chairside mock-up restoration workflows that enable prosthetically-driven assessment prior to implant treatment planning and 3D printing of surgical templates, which can predictably reduce chairside time and adjustments at the surgical and fixed provisionalization appointment.

Abstract
Clinical considerations and treatment criteria in implant placement are constantly evolving. Prosthetically driven implant surgery has become the standard of care to improve short and long-term functional and esthetic outcomes. Therefore, implant position and angulation are planned according to the available bone, anatomical structures, and the requirements of the future prosthetic superstructure. In parallel with these developments, significant progress has been made in data imaging and different software technologies to allow the integration of data within a digital file format. Digitalization in implant surgery enables optimal planning of implant position, as well as the ability to transfer this planning to the surgical field-a process defined as "computer-supported implant planning and guided surgery." The aims of the present review are as follows: (a) to critically appraise the indications and potential "added value" of guided implant surgery, elaborating the main differences between dynamic and static guidance; and (b) to discuss the most important clinical considerations relevant for the different steps of the workflow that might influence the surgical outcome and to offer recommendations on how to avoid or reduce process errors in order to optimize treatment outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess clinical, radiological performance of novel navigation guided socket-shield technique (NSS) with immediate implant placement and loading. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighteen patients (12 females; age 52.54 ± 4.92; 33-72) treated between January 2018 and June 2019, were investigated, and followed for at least 1 year after definitive prosthesis placement (mean 20.1 months, 18-23). Primary outcomes: implant and prosthetic success rates, surgical, biologic, prosthetic complications. SECONDARY OUTCOMES marginal bone loss (MBL), implant stability quotient (ISQ), pink esthetic score (PES), plaque and bleeding indexes. RESULTS Sixty-nine navigation guided socket-shield procedures were performed (27 implant-sites and 42 pontic-sites) and 27 implants (NobelParallel, NobelBiocare AG) positioned and immediately loaded. Mean insertion torque and ISQ at implant positioning were 49 ± 5.34 Ncm (36-74), 73 ± 5.72 (68-81). No implant failure was experienced. Two root-shield exposures with mucositis, ulceration and bleeding were reported at two pontic-sites (2.9%) and successfully treated. No complications were experienced at implant-site leading to an overall NSS success-rate of 100%. No prosthetic complications occurred. Mean MBL was -0.72 ± 0.26 mm (-0.42 to -1.06 mm). PES final at the last follow-up 12.84 ± 0.92. The plaque and bleeding scores were 18.5 ± 6.12 and 3.15 ± 2.21. CONCLUSIONS Within study limitations, dynamic navigation was effective to streamline execution of socket-shield technique at implant and pontic sites, shortening treatment time and reducing complications. Navigation guided socket-shield technique was reliable to achieve digitally planned shield-to-implant distance, facilitate immediate implant placement and loading and establish the mucosal dimension needed for underlying bone-to-implant protection and esthetic integration. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The investigated NSS technique overcomes the difficulties related to root preparation at implant and pontic-sites, facilitating immediate implant placement and loading. Dynamic guided surgery contributed to make socket-shield technique less technical-sensitive, shortening time for execution, reducing complication rate.

Abstract
Targeted endodontic microsurgery combines a precisely designed three-dimensional (3D)-printed surgical guide in which the osteotomy site and angulation is defined preoperatively to avoid damaging anatomically important structures. The current endodontic microsurgical procedures have been progressing in pace with technological advances as a predictable alternative to nonsurgical treatment of persistent and recurrent apical periodontitis. The 3D-printed template has been used earlier in the guided endodontic procedure (access openings). The endodontic microsurgery utilizes the surgical microscope and microsurgical instruments which help in enhanced magnification, illumination, and visualization compared to conventional endodontic surgery. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) plays an important role in surgical endodontics as it helps in measuring the distance between the cortical plate and the apex, position of the roots within the bone, and the proximity of vital structures can be assessed. The true size, location, and extent of the periapical lesion can also be appreciated preoperatively. In the present cases, the guide allowed the clinicians to precisely reach the targeted tissues in a faster and more accurate manner with a more conservative and less traumatic treatment procedure. A 1-year CBCT follow-up of both cases showed complete 3D healing of the surgical site.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this human cadaver study was to compare the accuracy of guided versus free-hand zygomatic implant placement. For the guided implant placement laser sintered titanium templates were used. METHODS Forty zygomatic implants were placed in ten cadavers heads. For each case two implants were inserted using the guided protocol(Ezgoma guide, Noris Medical, Israel) and the related surgical kit and the other two by using a free hand approach. Post-operative computed tomography (CT) scans were carried out to assess the deviations between planned and inserted implants. The accuracy was measured by overlaying the post-operative Ct scan (with the final position of the achieved implants)with the pre-operative CT scan (with the planned implants). RESULTS The difference of the mean between planned and placed zygomatic implants by using surgical guides or free hand were statistically significant for all the variables evaluated: angular deviation (1.19°±0.40° and 4.92°±1.71° p<0.001), linear distance deviation at coronal point (0.88 mm±0.33 mm and 2.04 mm±0.56 mm p<0.001), at apical point (0.79 mm±0.23 mm and 3.23 mm±1.43 mm p<0.001)and at apical depth (0.35 mm±0.25 mm and 1.02 mm±0.61 mm p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The proposed surgical guided system exhibited a higher accuracy for all the investigated variables compared to the free hand technique.

Abstract
This report describes the use of a temporary dental implant to secure a radiographic fiducial marker and patient tracking tag to an edentulous mandible for dynamically guided implant placement into a fibula microvascular free flap. A small diameter dental implant was placed into the anterior mandible to secure a radiographic fiducial marker followed by a patient tag. The patient tag allowed for tracking of the patient's mandible during placement of endosseous dental implants. Four endosseous dental implants were successfully placed into the edentulous fibula free flap mandibular reconstruction. Dynamic navigation using a small diameter implant to secure radiographic fiducial markers and patient tags provides a novel technique to place implants into an edentulous microvascular free flap with minimal incision and reflection of soft tissue.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to test a novel through-the-guide means of irrigation in an in-vitro bovine bone model and to explore the method clinical applicability. MATERIALS AND METHODS Surgical guides were designed to fit over five fresh bovine samples. Control osteotomy sites were compared to experimental sites irrigated through a 3D printed surgical guide with customized channels that direct the coolant toward the interface of the alveolar crest and drill. Temperature was measured during surgery with thermocouples located at 3 and 6 mm from the crestal height of the bone, and with an infrared thermal camera taking direct temperature readings from a window cut into axial wall at 9 mm from the crestal height of the ridge. RESULTS Incorporation of routed irrigation significantly decreased heat generation, keeping temperature consistently below 47°C. A clinical case illustrates the method applicability using standard implant planning software, 3D printing technology, and regular implant armamentarium. CONCLUSIONS The in-vitro analysis shows that this method mitigates temperature increase caused by static surgical guide irrigation blockade at the osteotomy site. This technique can be incorporated in the surgical guide design using commercially available software and 3D printing technology and has immediate applications in practice. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The in-vitro analysis shows that this method can significantly mitigate the temperature increase caused by static surgical guide irrigation blockade at the osteotomy site. This technique also has the advantage that it can be incorporated in the digital surgical guide design using commercially available software and 3D printing technology. The method has immediate applications in practice, and especially in the treatment of edentulism in esthetic zone where use of guided surgery for implant placement is crucial in obtaining consistent results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This in vitro study examined the effect of different implant drilling template designs on heat generation during osteotomy and on cooling fluid distribution. MATERIAL AND METHODS Five different template designs were investigated in a standardized setup against a control group and a negative control group: Occlusal-splint-design (OSD), OSD-covering, OSD-lateral opening, Bar design, and Orientation template. Pilot and one consecutive drill were run at 800 rpm with external irrigation and 2-kg load. Thermocouples recorded temperature changes at depths of 3, 6, and 9 mm in a bovine rib model. In the second experimental setup, the drill channel of one rib sample was perforated, and the irrigation volume passing through the drill channel was collected separately over time. RESULTS Following mean temperature rises occurred [in °C]: control, 4.9; negative control, 12; OSD, 5.6; OSD-covering, 4.7; OSD-lateral opening, 3.8; Bar design, 5.1; and Orientation template, 4.9. The highest temperature increases were found at a drilling depth of 6 mm (p < .006). The 2.2-mm drill resulted in a significantly higher temperature rise than the 2.8-mm drill (p < .001). The mean volume (ml/min) of irrigation through the drill channel was Control group-flow, 28.5; OSD, 4.1; OSD-covering, 2; OSD-lateral opening; 5.8; bar design, 4; and Orientation template, 24.1. CONCLUSION Within the limitations, it was shown that fully guided drilling templates reduce the amount of cooling liquid at the point of osteotomy. The template design had an influence on the effective volume of the cooling liquid. However, this did not seem to increase the intraosseous temperature significantly.

Abstract
Objectives To evaluate clinical, radiological performance of novel digital workflow integrating dynamic navigation to streamline in one‐visit single‐implant immediate loading in aesthetic zone. Material and methods Consecutive patients requiring one single‐implant in aesthetic zone of both jaws were treated between May and September 2017. Primary outcomes were implant and prosthetic success rates, surgical and prosthetic complications, marginal bone loss (MBL), final pink aesthetic score (PES‐f), and implant stability quotient (ISQ‐f). Secondary outcomes were ISQ‐0 and PES‐0 at implant positioning and PES‐p at definitive prosthesis placement. Potential effect of jaw (maxilla vs mandible), biotype (thin vs thick), type of incision (flap vs flapless), and implant site (healed vs. post‐extractive) on the primary outcomes (MBL, PES‐f, and ISQ‐f) was evaluated through a multivariable analysis. Results Fifty‐two implants were placed (follow‐up 18.6, 15–20 months). One post‐extractive implant failed. No other surgical, biological complications occurred, accounting for 98.10% cumulative success rate (CSR). No definitive prostheses failed. Mean MBL was −0.63 ± 0.25 mm (−1.69 to −0.06). PES‐f was 12.34 ± 1.41 (9–14). ISQ‐f was 78.1 ± 3.2 (70–84). Age had significantly negative effect on MBL and PES‐f (p = .0058 and p = .0052). No other variables significantly affected primary outcomes. Conclusions Within study limitations, investigated digital workflow integrating dynamic navigation was reliable for single‐implant immediate loading in aesthetic zone in one visit. No statistically significant difference was found for MBL, PES‐f, and ISQ‐f, considering type of incision (flap vs. flapless), implant site (healed vs post‐extractive), jaw (maxilla vs. mandible), and biotype (thick vs. thin). Live‐tracked dynamic navigation may have contributed to improve operator clinical performance regardless of implant site characteristics. Further investigations are needed to confirm positive outcomes.

Abstract
Background: Sophisticated guided surgery has not been implemented into total joint replacement-surgery (TJR) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) so far. Design and in-house manufacturing of a new advanced drilling guide with vector and length control for a typical TJR fossa component are described in this in vitro study, and its accuracy/utilization was evaluated and compared with those of intraoperative real-time navigation and already available standard drilling guides. Methods: Skull base segmentations of five CT-datasets from different patients were used to design drilling guides with vector and length control according to virtual surgical planning (VSP) for the TJR of the TMJ. Stereolithographic models of the skull bases were printed three times for each case. Three groups were formed to compare our newly designed advanced drilling guide with a standard drilling guide and drill-tracking by real-time navigation. The deviation of screw head position, screw length and vector in the lateral skull base have been evaluated (n = 72). Results: There was no difference in the screw head position between all three groups. The deviation of vector and length was significantly lower with the use of the advanced drilling guide compared with standard guide and navigation. However, no benefit in terms of accuracy on the lateral skull base by the use of real-time navigation could be observed. Conclusion: Since guided surgery is standard in implant dentistry and other CMF reconstructions, this new approach can be introduced into clinical practice soon, in order to increase accuracy and patient safety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Different designs of surgical drilling systems have been developed for the purpose of static Computer-Assisted Implant Surgery (sCAIS), but there is at present little understanding of how design principles affect the accuracy of implant placement. PURPOSE The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the accuracy of implant placement among five drilling systems of sCAIS in a controlled experimental setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-five 3D printed models with two edentulous bilateral premolar spaces were allocated to five different drilling systems: group A: sleeve-in-sleeve, group B: sleeve-in-sleeve with self-locking, group C: mounted sleeve-on-drill, group D: integrated sleeve-on-drill with metal sleeve in the guide, group E: integrated sleeve-on-drill without metal sleeve. Models were scanned with CBCT and optical scanner. All implants were digitally planned and 10 implants placed with sCAIS in each group. Postoperative 3D deviation of placed vs planned position was measured by means of platform, apex and angular deviation. Data was analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis test (P ≤ .05). Pairwise comparisons were tested with Dunn's test with adjusted P values. RESULTS The overall platform deviation ranged from 0.42 ± 0.12 mm (group B) to 1.18 ± 0.19 mm (group C). The overall apex deviation ranged from 0.76 ± 0.22 mm (group B) to 1.95 ± 0.48 mm (group D). The overall angular deviation ranged from 2.50 ± 0.89 degree (group B) to 5.30 ± 1.04 degree (group E). Group A and B showed significantly less angular deviation than groups D and E (P < .05). There was no statistically significant differences in all parameters between group A and B, as well as between group D and E (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS Significant differences were found with regards to accuracy among the five sCAIS systems tested, suggesting that the drilling protocol, the devices used and the design principles of the guides could influence the accuracy of implant placement.

Abstract
PURPOSE The study aims to evaluate the effect of tooth position, sleeve height, supporting length, resin E-modulus, and manufacturing method on the accuracy of dental implants placed in vitro fully guided in a lower jaw free-end situation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Using resin clones of a patient case providing a free-end situation 384 implants has been experimentally placed guided. The accuracy of postoperative implant position analyzed depending on the tooth position (first and second molar), sleeve height (2 and 6mm), supporting length (tooth no. 37-33 and 37 43), resin E-modulus (<2,000, >2,000, and >3,000 MPa), and manufacturing method (milled, printed). To determine the three-dimensional accuracy angular deviation, mean crestal, apical deviation, and the linear vertical deviation at apex were calculated separately for each group (n = 12). RESULTS The accuracy of implant placement using milled guides was affected only by the tooth position, indicating stronger deviation of implants replacing second molars than first molars. Considering printed guides, the implant position was influenced by tooth position, sleeve height, and supporting length. Linear vertical deviation >1 mm was found for printed materials with the lowest E-modulus at tooth position no. 37. Logistic regression analysis revealed a significant lower odds for linear vertical deviation >1 mm for materials with higher E-modulus (OR: 0.04; 95% CI:0.01-0.97; p = .048) and higher ratio for smaller sleeve height (OR: 2.77; 95% CI:1.20-6.38; p = .017). CONCLUSION Accuracy of implant placement in a free-end situation lacking distal tooth support is superior for milled as compared to 3D-printed surgical guides. When using 3D-printed surgical guides, smaller sleeve heights and extended tooth support improve the accuracy of implant placement.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Computer-assisted surgery (CAS) is a broad surgical methodology that utilizes computer technology to both plan and execute surgical intervention. CAS is widespread in both medicine and dentistry as it allows for minimally invasive and precise surgical procedures. Key innovations in volumetric imaging, virtual surgical planning software, instrument tracking, and robotics have assisted in facilitating the transfer of surgical plans to precise execution of surgical procedures. CAS has long been used in certain medical specialties including neurosurgery, cardiology, orthopedic surgery, otolaryngology, and interventional radiology, and has since expanded to oral and maxillofacial application, particularly for computer-assisted implant surgery. AREAS COVERED This review provides an updated overview of the most current research for CAS in medicine and dentistry, with a focus on neurosurgery and dental implant surgery. The MEDLINE electronic database was searched and relevant original and review articles from 2005 to 2020 were included. EXPERT OPINION Recent literature suggests that CAS performs favorably in both neurosurgical and dental implant applications. Computer-guided surgical navigation is well entrenched as standard of care in neurosurgery. Whereas static computer-assisted implant surgery has become established in dentistry, dynamic computer-assisted navigation is newly poised to trend upward in dental implant surgery.

Abstract
Objectives To compare free‐hand to computer‐assisted implant planning and placement (CAIPP) regarding planned to achieved implant position. Material and methods Forty‐eight cast/bone models were mounted in mannequin heads. On each side, a tooth gap of different sizes was created. In the test group (T), study implants were placed using a CAD‐CAM guide based on virtual planning. In the control (C), free‐hand implant placement was performed. After CBCT scanning, the implant position was compared with the planned position. Descriptive statistics were applied, and ANOVA was used to identify differences between groups and gaps. (p < .05). Results In C, mean lateral deviations at the implant base amounted to 0.7 mm (max. 1.8) (large gap) and 0.49 mm (1.22) (small gap). In T, 0.18 mm (0.49) and 0.24 mm (0.52) were recorded. At the apex, 0.77 mm (2.04) (large gap) and 0.51 mm (1.24) (small gap) were measured in C, and 0.31 mm (0.83)/0.34 mm (0.93) in T. Mean vertical deviations in C measured 0.46 mm (1.26) (large gap) and 0.45 mm (1.7) (small gap). In T, 0.14 mm (0.44) and 0.28 mm (0.78) were recorded. Mean angular deviations of 1.7° (3.2°) were observed in C (large gap) and 1.36° (2.1°) (small gap). In T, mean values were 1.57° (3.3°) and 1.32° (3.4°). Lateral and vertical deviations were significantly different between groups (not gaps), angular between gaps (not groups). Conclusions CAIPP protocols showed smaller deviations irrespective of the size of the tooth gap. In C, the gap size had an influence on the error in angulation only.

Abstract
The aim of this human cadaver study was to assess the accuracy of zygomatic/pterygoid implant placement using custom-made bone-supported laser sintered titanium templates. For this purpose, pre-surgical planning was done on computed tomography scans of each cadaver. Surgical guides were printed using direct metal laser sintering technology. Four zygomatic and two pterygoid implants were inserted in each case using the guided protocol and related tools. Post-operative computed tomography (CT) scans were obtained to evaluate deviations between the planned and inserted implants. Accuracy was measured by overlaying the real position in the post-operative CT on the virtual presurgical placement of the implant in a CT image. Descriptive and bivariate analyses of the data were performed. As a result, a total of 40 zygomatic and 20 pterygoid implants were inserted in 10 cadavers. The mean deviations between the planned and the placed zygomatic and pterygoid implants were respectively (mean ± SD): 1.69° ± 1.12° and 4.15° ± 3.53° for angular deviation. Linear distance deviations: 0.93 mm ± 1.23 mm and 1.35 mm ± 1.45 mm at platform depth, 1.35 mm ± 0.78 mm and 1.81 mm ± 1.47 mm at apical plane, 1.07 mm ± 1.47 mm and 1.22 mm ± 1.44 mm for apical depth. In conclusion, the surgical guide system showed accuracy for all the variables studied and allowed acceptable and accurate implant placement regardless of the case complexity.

Abstract
A prosthetically-driven virtual implant plan is considered a challenging procedure depending on accurate registration of the three-dimensional optical surface scan and 3D volumetric rendering reconstructed from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. However, the presence of preexisting metal restorations may significantly negatively influence the registration process. This technical report describes a novel digital workflow to optimize the implant planning outcome for the partially edentulous patient with preexisting metal restorations by accurately aligning the standard triangle language data of the intraoral scanner with the CBCT rendering using a dual-scan technique and an appliance with radiographic markers.

Abstract
Owing to their unique afterglow ability, long-wavelength light activatable persistent luminescence (PersL) nanoparticles (PLNPs) have been emerging as an important category of imaging probes. Long-wavelength LED light has been shown to be effective in recharging these nanoparticles. However, finding a simple and effective method to amplify such renewable PersL signals under long-wavelength light is still a key challenge. Herein, we discovered that a dye-sensitization strategy was able to effectively boost the renewable PersL signals of the NIR emitting ZnGa2 O4 :Cr3+ (ZGC)) under long-wavelength LED light. Moreover, as a proof-of-principle tumorectomy demonstration, this new class of dye sensitized ZGC enabled simultaneous intraoperative anatomic tumor navigation and effective microscopic detection of tumor cells in pathological diagnosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the accuracy of static computer-assisted implant surgery (sCAIS) for tooth-supported free-end dental implantation with the aid/and without the aid of fixation pins to secure the surgical template through comparison between planned, 3D printed guide position and placement implant position. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-two duplicated maxillary resin models were used in the present in vitro study. Digital planning was performed and fabrication of a surgical template that allowed implant placement on the distal extension edentulous site of the model (maxillary left side). A first optical scan was performed after fitting the surgical template on the model to assess the deviation at the surgical guide level. After placing implants in the model using the surgical guide, scan bodies were attached to the implants, and a second scan was performed to record the position of placed implants. The digital representations were later superimposed to the pre-operative scan and measurements of implant deviations were performed. Global (coronal and apical), horizontal (coronal and apical), depth and angular deviations were recorded between planned implant position, guide position, and placement implant position. Three-way ANOVA was used to compare implant location (#13, 14, and 15), fixation pin (with or without pin), and guide comparison (planned, guided, and placement). RESULTS Final implant placement based on the digital plan and based on the 3D printed guide were very similar except for depth deviation. Use of fixation pin had a statistically significant effect on the depth and angular deviation. Overall, without fixation pins and based on guide versus placement, mean global coronal (0.88 ± 0.36 mm), horizontal coronal (0.55 ± 0.32 mm), and apical (1.44 ± 0.75 mm), and angular deviations (4.28 ± 2.01°) were similar to deviations with fixation pins: mean global coronal (0.88 ± 0.36 mm); horizontal coronal (0.67 ± 0.22 mm) and apical (1.60 ± 0.69 mm); and angular deviations (4.53 ± 2.04°). Horizontal apical without pins (1.63 ± 0.69 mm) and with fixation pins (1.72 ± 0.70 mm) was statistically significant (p = 0.044). Depth deviation without pins (-0.5 ± 0.5 mm) and with fixation pins (-0.16 ± 0.62 mm) was also statistically significant (p = 0.005). Further analysis demonstrated that the final sleeve position on the 3D printed guide was on average 0.5 mm more coronal than the digital plan. CONCLUSIONS The use of surgical guides with or without fixation pins can provide clinically acceptable outcomes in terms of accuracy in implant position. There was a statistically significant difference in the accuracy of implant position when utilizing fixation pins only for horizontal apical and depth deviation. Additionally, a statistically significant difference between the planned and the 3D printed surgical guide when considering the sleeve position was detected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical templates are classified as noncritical devices, and they do not need to be sterile. AIM Primary aim of this study was to assess the microbiological burden present on the surgical templates without metallic sleeves after disinfection. Furthermore, to evaluate trueness after disinfection and steam sterilization at 121°C/15 min, and over a 8-week storage period. Finally, to assess their accuracy after in vitro implant placement simulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty surgical templates were printed and divided in five groups of eight templates each. Groups A to C were disinfected with 0.5% Chlorhexidine Gluconate and 70% ethyl alcohol base solution for 15 min. Templates in the group D were steam sterilized at 121°C for 15 min, while, the templates in the group E were used as control. Implant simulation was performed in the group A. Outcome measures were determination of bioburden, trueness assessment using GOM Inspect Professional software, and accuracy evaluated thought the mean angular deviation of simulated implants. RESULTS Total microbic charge measured as colony forming units (CFU) for sample, was 24.40 in the control group (group E; n = 8), and <4.40 in the test group (group C; n = 8), with a reduction of 84%. Colored representation from GOM inspection showed no differences after disinfection and implant simulation, disinfection alone, and steam sterilization, compared to the control group. A very small difference in the surface and volume dimensions was reported 1 month after templates fabrication. The mean roundness tolerances of the tested templates improved of 0.96 ± 0.56° (95% CI 0.57-1.35). CONCLUSION Surgical templates without metallic sleeves can be safely used after disinfection, demonstrating high level of accuracy, even when the surgical procedures should be postponed within a couple of weeks. Further in vivo study are needed to confirm these preliminary results.
