Application of a surgical guide in the extraction of impacted mesiodentes: a randomized controlled trial

ConclusionsDespite some limitations, the surgical guide assisted with mesiodentes extraction and can improve the quality of the operation quality as well as reducing its economic burden, difficulty, and duration. Through proper design, we can create a high-quality surgical guide using only CBCT data.Clinical relevanceThe surgical guide can be used as an important assistive tool in alveolar surgery.
