Abstract

Modern oral implantology and implant prosthetics depend on comprehensive diagnostics and precise planning to ensure the desired outcome and meet the patient's and the dentist's expectations. In this context, digital implant planning and guided implant surgery based on three-dimensional radiographic data and the digitised intraoral surfaces can be of excellent service. They provide valuable information and permit stringent backward planning to optimise the implantological and prosthetic result, improving the safety and efficiency of the surgical procedure and rendering the restorative outcome more predictable in terms of function, biology and aesthetics. However, template-guided implant surgery carries its own specific risks in terms of manufacturing inaccuracies and application errors. These possible sources of error must be recognised and carefully considered in order to avoid adverse consequences.
