Application of intraoral scanning registration implant robot in dental implant surgery.

Abstract

Objectives: This paper aims to investigate the application of intraoral scanning and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) registration implant robot in dental implant surgery.

Methods: The data of 40 cases with dental defect of robot-assisted implantation from November 2023 to May 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Before the operation, the intraoral scan data and CBCT data of the positioning markers were automatically fused with the initial CBCT images, and the registration error was calculated. The average registration error of positioning markers was determined during the operation, and the implantation accuracy was analyzed after the operation.

Results: The intraoral scan data and CBCT data of 40 patients with dental defect wearing positioning markers were successfully registered with the initial CBCT image, and the registration errors were (0.157±0.026) mm and (0.154±0.033) mm, respectively. Statistical analysis showed no statistical significance between them. The registration errors of the marker was (0.037 3±0.003 6) mm. A total of 55 implants were performed, and the total deviations of the implant point and the apical point were (0.78±0.41) and (0.89±0.28) mm, respectively. The transverse deviations of the implant point and the apical point were (0.44±0.36) and (0.58±0.25) mm, respectively. The depth deviations of the implant point and the apical point were (0.51±0.32) and (0.54±0.36) mm, respectively. The deviation of the implant angle was 1.24°±0.67°.

Conclusions: The fusion technology based on intraoral scanning and CBCT registration can meet the accuracy requirements of preoperative registration of oral implant robots. The technology increases the choice of registration methods before robot-assisted dental implant surgery and reduces the multiple radiation exposuresof the patient.
