Abstract

Navigation surgery has been called the concept that concerns the installation of implants according to pre-surgical planning with a prosthetic focus through 3D planning software. There are two types of Navigation surgery, static and dynamic. Both approaches seek to transfer pre-surgical design planning with high accuracy to the patient's mouth. This in order to achieve predictable treatments with excellent functional and aesthetic prognosis. The further development of computer technology and the associated computer-aided methods have increased the use of dynamic navigation in clinical practice in recent years. However there is still little scientific evidence and knowledge on Dynamic Navigation systems compared to Static Navigation. The objective of this panoramic review is to give a brushstroke to the general theory that supports the use and development of this technology.
