Application and nursing cooperation of immediate implant placement supported by dynamic navigation: a retrospective study

Background The dynamic navigation technique is used in implant surgery, and there are many instruments and complex procedures during the operation. Therefore, standardized and smooth doctor-nurse cooperation is particularly important. The purpose of this study is to summarize the practical application of dynamic navigation system in immediate implant placement (IIP), and to preliminarily discuss the perioperative nursing cooperation. Methods In this study, 40 patients who underwent IIP using a dynamic navigation system in the Department of dentistry of our hospital from 1 January 2021 to 31 March 2024 were collected and the postoperative implantation accuracy was measured, including cervical deviation, apical deviation, depth deviation and angular deviation, and the key points of nursing cooperation were summarised. Results 62 implants were successfully placed in 40 patients, and all implants had good initial stability. The deviations of the neck and root under navigation guidance were (1.36 ± 0.65) mm and (1.48 ± 0.65) mm, respectively, and the angular deviation was (3.71 ± 1.32) °. Patients were generally satisfied with the results of the implantation and no serious complications occurred. Conclusion The dynamic navigation system can improve the precision and success rate of IIP. The preoperative quality nursing care, the full preparation of instruments and items, and the skilled operative nursing coordination can improve the surgical efficiency and reduce complications.
