Methodology for evaluating implant placement accuracy in computer-assisted implant surgery: Results from a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Most existing studies rely on pre- and postoperative CBCT imaging, whereas intraoral scanning-based methods remain underexplored. Preliminary evidence suggests that intraoral scanning-based analyses may offer higher accuracy than CBCT, although the differences are not statistically significant. When deciding between intraoral scanning and CBCT, clinicians should consider clinical practicality, including equipment availability and radiation exposure.
