Abstract: Objective To compare the effects of three digital measurement methods on the accuracy evaluation of implants placed with the static surgical guide, and to explore the influence of surgical procedure on the accuracy and parallelism of multiple implants assisted by the same guide plate. Methods CBCT data of three patients with mandibular edentulous were randomly selected. After data extraction, 10 models of each were printed by Straumann P20+ 3D printer and a total of 30 resin models of mandibular edentulous were made. Surgical guide plates were designed according to the routine implantation of parallel implants at tooth positions 46, 44, 42, 32, 34, and 36 in edentulous fixed restoration. Six implants were planted from left to right by an implant doctor according to the surgical guidelines of digital guide assisted implantation technology, with a total of 180 implants. Three measurements were used to evaluate the 3D deviation and parallelism of the implants. Results The mean Angle deviation of all implants was 1.89°±0.87°, and the mean 3D distance deviation of implants was (0.46±0.19) mm at the implant's neck and (0.58±0.21) mm at the implants root apex. The actual postoperative average angle between any two implants was 1.65°±0.87°, with a minimum of 0.02° and a maximum of 5.54°. Scan-body&Qualify, Scan-body&coDiagnostiX, and CBCT&coDiagnostiX three measurement methods, the three sets of data axial angle deviations are 1.96°(1.26°), 1.82°(1.15°)and 1.60°(1.12°), the 3D distance deviations of the neck are 0.37 mm(0.23 mm), 0.41 mm(0.15 mm)and 0.6 mm(0.28 mm), respectively. The 3D distance deviations of the root apex are 0.47 mm(0.26 mm), 0.55 mm(0.22 mm), and (0.69±0.22) mm, respectively. Conclusions CBCT measurements are more accurate than the scan-body method in angular deviation and less accurate in 3D distance deviation. The accuracy and parallelism of multiple implants assisted by the same guide plate are good. The deviation does not accumulate or decrease during the operation and is related to the implant site.
