Conditions

Replacement of missing teeth using oral implant Oral Health

Interventions

All patients underwent the same treatment
a 3D X-ray (cone-beam computed tomography [CBCT]) and intraoral scan (IOS) were obtained both before and after implantation of the oral implants. These steps are part of the regular treatment protocol

All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Partially dentate patients referred to the department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Radboudumc Nijmegen tot install at least one dental implant.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Severe periodontal disease 2. Severe bruxism 3. Usage of intravenous bisphosphonates

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The discrepancy between planned and placed implant: The matched preoperative IOS and CBCT including the planned implant is matched automatically with either the postoperative CBCT or IOS, in which the actual implant location is visible. The 3DMedX software produces a set of XYZ coordinates for both the planned and placed implant and the discrepancy between the location of the planned and the actually placed implant are calculated in millimeters.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
There are no secondary outcome measures
