“…This can cause complications like graft migration into the sinus and implant failure. Keeping this in mind, it is important for dental professionals to carefully assess the patient's anatomy and perform the procedure with precision to minimize the risk of complications [6]. Close monitoring and follow-up with the patient are crucial to detecting and managing any potential complications [7].…”

Aim: This study aims to evaluate the accuracy associated with the use of a dynamic navigation system for the lateral window opening for a direct sinus floor elevation (SFE) procedure with simultaneous implant placement. Materials and methods: A female patient, aged 27 years, reported to the Department of Implantology seeking treatment for her lost tooth. On radiographic examination, the residual alveolar ridge height was 6 mm in the 26 (left upper first molar) region. For the implant placement, the case was planned to be carried out under dynamic navigation (Navident, Claronav, Canada). To make the lateral window accessible to the sinus floor, an implant trajectory resembling the required window dimensions and prosthetic implant position was planned. Post-surgery cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was taken to assess the accuracy of the lateral window and implant trajectories using Evalunav (Navident, Claronav, Canada) analysis with dynamic navigation software. Results: There was improved accuracy of the lateral window opening, and the visualization of the lateral window was maintained in real-time throughout the procedure, which was advantageous to eliminate the tearing of the thin sinus membrane. The deviations found in the trajectory of the lateral window in comparison between the planning and post-procedure were: (a) entry was deviated by 2.83 mm; (b) the apex was deviated by 2.52 mm; (c) vertically, the apex was deviated by 0.29 mm; and (d) there was an 8.93° deviation in the angulation of the trajectory. The implant that was placed simultaneously with the SFE’s accuracy was in comparison with the position that was planned: (a) entry was deviated by 0.03 mm, (b) the apex was deviated by 0.82 mm, (c) vertically, the apex was deviated by 0.82 mm, and (d) there was a 0° deviation in the angulation of the trajectory. Conclusion: Dynamic navigation technology can help overcome complications associated with direct sinus lift procedures by providing highly accurate and precise planning and execution of the surgical procedure. This can lead to improved implant stability and a reduced risk of complications.
