AI assisted surgical guides for dental implant placement

Abstract

Dental implant placement requires high precision and advancements in technology, such as AI-assisted surgical guides. Therefore, it is of interest to compare AI-assisted surgical guides, conventional guides and freehand techniques in dental implant placement. Hence, 75 artificial jaw models were divided into three groups of 25 each. The implants were placed using standardized methods. The AI guides were created using machine learning software (PlanmecaRomexis®, India). Statistical analysis (SPSS v25) used Shapiro-Wilk, Levene's test, ANOVA with Tukey, p<0.05, and ICC for reliability.AI-assisted surgical guides offer superior accuracy, stability and implant success rates.

Keywords: AI-assisted surgical guides; accuracy; angular deviation; dental implants; depth deviation; implant stability; implant success rate; insertion torque; resonance frequency analysis.
