Abstract: Objective: To design the zygomatic implant for patients with severely atrophied alveolar ridge by Simplant using CBCT data, and to implement it in surgery. Methods: Implants were designed for 5 patients with severely atrophied alveolar ridge by Simplant. During the operation, the navigation software will match the pathway to the designed plan. Results: Implant positions deviated from planed slightly. The deviation of the angle of implant to the Fankfort plane (A) is less than 1°, the deviations of the length of implant in Zygoma (LZ) to the distance from the implant to orbit wall length (D) and to the length of implant in alveolar bone (LA) were less than 2mm. After 12 months, no implant failure occurred. Conclusion: Designing the surgical pathway of zygomatic implant through Simplant software and effectuating the surgery through surgical navigation system can make the planting plan more precise, and greatly enhance the safety and accuracy of complex zygomatic implant surgery.
