Abstract:
Statement of problem: Static computer-assisted implantation system (s-CAIS) has been introduced to implant dentistry for decades. According to previous studies, they were recognised the inaccuracies of actual implant position placed via using static computer-assisted implantation system. These inaccuracies result from an accumulation of every step in the workflow from planning to accuracy assessment. Recently, there are multiple implant planning softwares available. coDiagnostiXTM software and Implant StudioTM software are widely used third-party implant planning softwares which claimed to provide predictable implant placement outcome. However, the effect of softwares used on accuracy of guided surgery in anterior maxilla region has not been throughly reported.
Objective: This study intend to evaluate the accuracy of implant position between using coDiagnostiXTM and 3shape Implant studio software programs.
Materials and methods: 30 bone level tapered implants (Straumann) were placed on the single edentulous space maxilla model which has been planned with coDiagnostiXTM and Implant StudioTM software. The samples were divided into two groups according to the planning software used. Then the planned and placed implant position were superimposed. The deviation among two groups were recorded. Data was analyzed using t-test(α = .05).
Results: For coDiagnostiXTM software, statistic revealed mean angular deviations of 1.99 ± 0.96 degrees, mean coronal deviation of 0.57 ± 0.15 mm, and mean vertical deviation of -0.51 ± 0.18 mm. For Implant StudioTM software, mean angular deviations was 2.43 ± 1.26 degrees, mean coronal deviation of 0.51 ± 0.22 mm, and mean vertical deviation of -0.49 ± 0.23 mm. No significant differences were found between two planning software in all parameters, angular deviation, linear coronal deviation, and vertical deviation (P > 0.05)
Conclusions: There is no statistically significant difference between coDiagnostiXTM and Implant StudioTM software.
