AI-assisted versus point-based registration for digital planning in CBCT images with metallic artifacts
Accurate registration between cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images and intraoral scans is fundamental to digital implant planning because registration errors may propagate throughout the digital workflow and affect the accuracy of computer-guided implant surgery. Conventional point-based registration relies on manually selected anatomical landmarks and may be compromised by metallic artifacts that obscure dental structures. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted registration has recently emerged as a promi…
In 45 patients with metal-distorted dental scans, AI-assisted registration aligned images with a median discrepancy of 0.190 mm versus 0.268 mm for manual point-based registration, with no added time.
The authors state that further prospective multicenter studies using multiple implant-planning software platforms and broader clinical scenarios are needed to confirm the findings.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2323 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
