Comparison of postoperative intraoral scan vs cone beam computerised tomography to measure accuracy of guided implant placement—A prospective clinical study
Clinical Oral Implants Research May 19, 2019
Skjerven H, et al. - The accuracy of implant placement was evaluated by researchers using a digitally planned guided implant procedure. Two methods have been compared to identify the implants' actual postoperative positioning: CBCT and IO scanning. Following a digital planning procedure, 28 implants with a sandblasted and acid-etched surface were placed in 13 patients using tooth-supported surgical guides. The investigation did not resolve any significant differences in the implant positioning identified as measured by CBCT or IO, except for the coronal and apical point apical deviations. The findings showed that measurements of accuracy using IO scanning yield comparable results to those obtained by CBCT.
