Impact of Supporting Teeth Quantity on Immediate Implant Accuracy

Posted: December 28, 2024
The article investigates the effect of the number of supporting teeth on the accuracy of immediate implant placement in the maxillary central incisor region. The study compared implants supported by four adjacent teeth vs. six adjacent teeth using surgical guides. Results showed that six-teeth support demonstrated greater precision with lower angular and 3D deviations compared to four-teeth support. The study highlights the importance of guide design in optimizing implant accuracy, particularly in esthetic areas. Future research may explore different anatomical locations and implant lengths to further validate these findings.
