title: [Navigated implant placement using a bone supported CT-guided surgical template. Case report].
abstract: Surgical navigation allows precise implant placement and minimizes the risk of interferences with anatomical structures. Computerized implant planning based on tomographic data can be clinically realized by surgical templates. These are normally produced by stereo lithographic rapid prototyping. Accurate placement of virtually planned dental implants depends on a precise fabrication and positioning of the surgical template. Bone-, tooth-, implant-, and/or soft tissue-supported surgical templates allow for different micromovements. This report documents the diagnostics and surgical procedures of implant placement in an edentulous patient. Implant fixed complete dentures in the maxilla and mandible were planned. In the maxilla implants were inserted with the aid of a conventional surgical template. In the mandible a bone supported CT-guided surgical template was used.
