Aim: The objective of this prospective pilot clinical study was to evaluate the accuracy of a new dynamic navigation system and postoperative clinical outcomes. Materials and methods: Ten patients were recruited and 18 implants were placed. The surgery was performed with the navigation system and according to the virtual planning. Ten implants were placed using a flapless technique and eight implant sites were prepared with a combined piezo-drill method. The deviation between the real implant position obtained from the postoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan and the planned implant position was measured. Result: The average deviation was 1.19 ± 0.54 mm. The mean deviation measured at the insertion point was 1.04 ± 0.47 mm and at the apical point it was 1.35 ± 0.56 mm. The depth error was 0.43 ± 0.34 mm. The axis deviation was 6.46 ± 3.95 degrees. No significant differences were found between the flapless and the open-flap approaches and between the conventional and piezoelectric techniques. No complications occurred. Conclusion: The accuracy values reported in this study are comparable, although not superior, to the literature data regarding dynamic and static computer-guided surgery. Dynamic navigation could increase the quality and safety of interventions and may reduce morbidity when compared with freehand insertion techniques.

Abstract
Aim: The objective of this prospective pilot clinical study was to evaluate the accuracy of a new dynamic navigation system and postoperative clinical outcomes. Materials and methods: Ten patients were recruited and 18 implants were placed. The surgery was performed with the navigation system and according to the virtual planning. Ten implants were placed using a flapless technique and eight implant sites were prepared with a combined piezo-drill method. The deviation between the real implant position obtained from the postoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan and the planned implant position was measured. Result: The average deviation was 1.19 ± 0.54 mm. The mean deviation measured at the insertion point was 1.04 ± 0.47 mm and at the apical point it was 1.35 ± 0.56 mm. The depth error was 0.43 ± 0.34 mm. The axis deviation was 6.46 ± 3.95 degrees. No significant differences were found between the flapless and the open-flap approaches and between the conventional and piezoelectric techniques. No complications occurred. Conclusion: The accuracy values reported in this study are comparable, although not superior, to the literature data regarding dynamic and static computer-guided surgery.
