Inovações tecnológicas na implantodontia, do planejamento ao ato cirúrgico: revisão de literatura

Abstract

Implantology is a specialty of dentistry that allows the restoration of function, esthetics and phonetics, through a prosthetic rehabilitation in the oral cavity, appropriate and similar to naturalness, thus restoring patients' self-esteem. Thinking about oral rehabilitation with implants, an important characteristic is the fact that it is immutable after its installation, requiring an excellent planning, avoiding further complications. The rehabilitation with implants must be planned in a reverse way, thinking about diagnostic prostheses, so that it is possible to predict the result, as well as with the aid of complementary exams, showing the quality and quantity of tissue, whether soft or bone, as well as the evaluation the need for changes to comply with the established planning. Existing technologies assist in this planning, such as computed tomography and guided surgery, where surgical planning is performed using computerized software, and an extremely accurate surgical guide is built. This study aims to evaluate and discuss the interference of technological innovations in implantology, presenting the positive and negative points of using these methods. For this, a literature review was carried out in the PUBMED, MEDLINE, LILACS and SCIELO databases. Through literary review and discussion of the topic, it was seen that, nowadays, these technologies are proving themselves in the scope of implantology, making their study increasingly necessary, so that the applicability of these means is directed, providing good results.
