A literature review on prosthetically designed guided implant placement and the factors influencing dental implant success

This is an extensive review of the literature on prosthetically designed implant planning with particular regard to the factors influencing dental implant success. Electronic searches on PubMed and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and manual searches were performed. The author selected the studies according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Meta-analysis of implant placement accuracy and a qualitative review of potential influencing factors were performed.

This literature review will explore prosthetically designed implant placement and its influence on dental implant success. By examining the factors that impact implant outcomes, this review aims to provide clinicians with a comprehensive understanding of the key considerations and best practices in achieving successful implant placements. Ultimately, this knowledge can contribute to enhancing patient care and the long-term success of dental implant treatments.
