Study tests which computer guide puts braces screws in the right spot

NCT ID NCT07378618

Summary

This study compared two computer-guided methods for placing tiny screws in the roof of the mouth, which are used as anchors during orthodontic treatment. Forty patients needing these screws were randomly assigned to have them placed using either a pre-made surgical guide or a real-time navigation system. Researchers used 3D scans to measure how accurately each method placed the screws compared to the planned position.
