3D-Printed guides help place cheekbone implants with precision
NCT ID NCT07463469
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how accurately 3D-printed surgical guides can place zygomatic implants in 10 people with severe upper jaw bone loss. Researchers used CT scans to plan the implant positions before surgery, then compared the actual placement to the plan using post-surgery scans. The goal was to measure any differences in position and angle, helping improve future implant accuracy.
