Abstract

The placement of dental implants using any form of computer-assisted surgery (CAS) is more precise and accurate than freehand placement. Dynamic navigation (DN) is a form of CAS that allows the surgeon to guide implant placement using software and light in a live, dynamic fashion. DN allows for a completely digital workflow with no laboratory procedures needed to implement the surgery. The surgeon can visualize the patient at all times and if desired the treatment plan altered during surgery based upon the clinical situation. The accuracy of this efficient form of CAS will be reviewed. The principles, components of a typical system, and finally the workflow of dynamic navigation will be outlined.
