Computer-Assisted Removal of Supernumerary Teeth vs Freehand Surgery

Overview

While CBCT imaging enables the surgeon to precisely map the position of impacted supernumerary teeth relative to neighboring structures, traditional extraction methods for impacted supernumerary teeth can involve extensive bone removal and soft tissue dissection, increasing operative time and trauma. Computer-assisted surgery and the use of 3D-printing technology offer a paradigm shift by leveraging advanced imaging and manufacturing technologies to guide surgical procedures with high accuracy and with and minimally invasive alveolar surgery.
