Dynamic Navigation: A Novel Tool for Dental Implant Surgery

Dynamic navigation is an advanced technology that has revolutionized dental implant surgeries. Before being used in dentistry, technique been practiced neurosurgery for performing minimally invasive brain Navigation surgery placement can be broadly categorized as dynamic and static navigation. The uses a surgical guide the sequential drilling of osteotomy site placement. either fully guided or partial/half-guided. computer-assisted real-time imaging to procedure. In navigation, three-dimensional (3D) software monitors tracks bone during entire This involves prosthetically driven virtual planning with Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) before surgery. 3D image patient analyzed CBCT scan. then plan create guide. A resin template printed milled which scan images are transferred into using digital software, allows viewing structures Computer Aided Design (CAD). calibrated special instrument specific guides sequence procedure completely tracked patient’s anatomy procedures real time shown software. use computer-aided ensures placed precisely desired location, reducing risks associated conventional effective precise method more accurate implants, reduces chance damaging anatomical structures. It also gives clinicians possibility modify planned approach Additionally, because accurately, there less risk failure. However, learning curve training period required one masters this novel technology. potentially become preferred near future.
