The Efficacy of Freehand, Pilot Drilled and Fully Guided Implant Surgery in Partially Edentulous Patients: a Randomize Control Trial

This intervention involves implant placement performed manually by the surgeon without the use of specialized guides. The procedure relies on the surgeon's clinical judgment and experience to determine the implant's positioning, angulation, and depth.

This intervention utilizes a pilot drill to create an initial guide hole for the implant. The pilot-drilled pathway improves accuracy while still allowing the surgeon flexibility during the procedure. The final implant is placed following sequential drilling.

This intervention employs computer-aided surgical templates created from preoperative imaging data, such as CBCT scans. These guides ensure precise implant positioning, angulation, and depth based on preoperative planning. The approach minimizes variability and enhances accuracy.
