A recent systematic review conducted by researchers at Universidad de Cuenca in Ecuador evaluated the accuracy of implant placement using digital prosthetically-derived surgical guides. The review analyzed 10 in vivo studies from 2013 to 2023 and found that static guided techniques offered superior accuracy, while bilateral guides provided stability and printed guides were cost-effective. The studies showed coronal deviations of 0.44 mm to 0.56 mm, apical deviations of 0.64 mm to 1.03 mm, angular deviations of 2.03° to 2.42°, and vertical deviations of 0.19 mm to 0.45 mm. The researchers concluded that further research is needed to standardize outcomes and improve implant protocols and patient outcomes. [Extracted from the article] |
