A randomized controlled trial: evaluation of efficiency and safety of a novel surgical guide in the extraction of deeply impacted supernumerary teeth in the anterior maxilla

BACKGROUND: Preoperative X-ray and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) are helpful for locating supernumerary teeth, but the images cannot be transferred to the operation.

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Preoperative X-ray and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) are helpful for locating supernumerary teeth, but the images cannot be transferred to the operation. To design a novel surgical guide plate for intraoperative navigation, we transfer the patient’s oral CBCT and gypsum model scan data to a computer for analysis. In our study, we evaluate the efficiency and safety of a novel surgical guide plate for the extraction of deeply impacted supernumerary teeth (DIMSNT) in the anterior maxilla. METHODS: Forty patients treated at the Department of School & Hospital of Stomatology, Wenzhou Medical University from March 2019 to December 2020 with DIMSNT (type II/III according to Liu et al.) in the anterior maxilla were randomly divided into 2 groups (20 patients for each group) for the extraction. For group I, a novel surgical guide was selected using CBCT and gypsum model scan. In contrast, for group II who underwent freehand surgery, only the CBCT data was used. The evaluation of operation time, complications, satisfaction score, and the number of cases that underwent extraction immediately after removing the bone were performed to assess the efficiency and safety of this novel surgical plate. RESULTS: All patients completed the surgery successfully. The guides for group I had a good application effect. Group I’s operation time (23.35±5.39 min) was shorter than group II (29.60±9.76 min) (P=0.0194). The average pain degree of group I (1.8±1.08) was significantly less than group II (2.82±1.68) (P<0.05). The average swelling score of group I (34) was significantly less than group II (44.7). Patient satisfaction was significantly higher in group I (8.95±1.05) than in group II (7.90±1.51) (P=0.0152). CONCLUSIONS: The novel surgical guide assisted with DIMSNT extraction have been effective in improving the quality of the surgery, patient satisfaction, and reduce its difficulty and duration. We can construct a surgical guide plate to guide the incision and osteotomy in DIMSNT surgery through the data analysis of DIMSNT on computer, which has a broad application prospect for clinical use.
