Clinical application of a digital whole-process surgical guide plate for immediate implant placement in the molar area / 口腔疾病防治

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the clinical effect of a digital whole-process surgical guide for immediate implantation in the molar area. @*Methods @#Twenty-six patients with molar extraction plans were accepted for preoperative CBCT and model construction. Computer software was used to design the ideal three-dimensional position of the implant. The control group of 13 patients underwent immediate implantation with a free hand operation, whereas the experimental group of 13 patients underwent preparation and implant insertion under the guidance of a surgical guide. Bone grafting was performed, and a good initial stability was achieved. After 5 to 6 months, osseointegration was achieved, and the final restoration was delivered. After surgery, the accuracy of the three-dimensional position of the implants was measured, and at the 6 month return visit, the modified Plaque Index (mPLI), modified Sulcular Bleeding Index (mSBI) and probing depth (PD) were measured. @*Results @# In the control group and experimental group, the vertical errors at the top of the implants were 1.246 ± 0.072 mm and 0.628 ± 0.046 mm (t = 26.078, P < 0.001), respectively, and the horizontal errors were 1.563 ± 0.086 mm and 0.546 ± 0.056 mm (t = 35.813, P < 0.001), respectively; and the vertical errors at the root of the implants were 1.352 ± 0.042 mm and 0.532 ± 0.030 mm (t = 57.021, P < 0.001), respectively, and the horizontal errors were 1.645 ± 0.076 mm and 0.625 ± 0.072 mm (t = 35.086, P < 0.001), respectively. For the experimental group, the mPLI value was 0.923 ± 0.760, the mSBI value was 0.846 ± 0.689, and the PD value was 3.460 ± 0.713 mm, which were significantly lower than those of the control group. For the control group, the mPLI value was 1.769 ± 0.927 (t = 2.546, P = 0.018), the mSBI value was 1.692 ± 0.947 (t = 22.605, P = 0.016) and the PD value was (4.579 ± 0.475) mm (t = 4.709, P < 0.001). @*Conclusion@#A digital surgical guide plate can increase the precision of immediate implantation and the peri-implant health in the molar area.
