First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested a fully digital method to remove an impacted canine tooth and place a dental implant with a temporary crown in the same procedure. Five healthy adults with at least two missing teeth took part. The approach used 3D scans and a surgical guide to place the implant, then tracked results for two years. The goal was to see if this method works well and avoids extra bone grafting.
