The purpose of the present report is to contrast and compare 2 methods of dental implant placement. One method uses computed tomography data for computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing to generate static guides for implant placement. The second method is a dynamic navigation system that uses a stereo vision computer triangulation setup to guide implant placement. A review of the published data was performed to provide evidence-based material to compare each method. Finally, the indications for each type of method are discussed.
