We plan to conduct this randomized clinical trial to compare the implant positional accuracy of robotic system-assisted implant surgery with that of conventional freehand implant surgery. Patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned to either an experimental group that underwent robotic surgery or a control group that underwent freehand surgery, to evaluate the accuracy of implant in both groups.
Oral implants have become a widely used treatment modality for patients with missing or edentulous teeth. Previous studies have shown that implant accuracy is associated with implant success and long-term outcomes. Therefore, we plant to conduct this randomized clinical trial to compare the implant positional accuracy of robotic system-assisted implant surgery with that of conventional freehand implant surgery. Patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned to either an experimental group that underwent robotic surgery or a control group that underwent freehand surgery. By comparing the preoperative planned implant position with the actual postoperative implant position using CBCT, we will evaluate the accuracy of implant in both groups.

Implant placement will be navigated by a dental implant robot based on a digital plan.
Implant will be placed under freehand surgery.
School & Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan University
Wuhan, Hubei, China
RECRUITINGImplant positional accuracy
Implant accuracy will be measured as distance discrepancy at implant platform and implant apex, and angular discrepancy of implant axis between the digital plan and the actual position of the implant assessed digitally at the end of the procedure. Pre- and post-operative CBCT will be used for measurement.
Time frame: immediately after surgery
Surgery complication
Complication related to implant placement surgery.
Time frame: Immediately and seven days after surgery
