- In the first case, the retained eighth was the cause of frequent pain, while in the second, the untreated condition could lead to tooth loss, explains Prof. Skucha - Nowak.
Augmented reality, which was used during the procedure, is the image of the world we see, only that with the elements applied, in this case the image of the CT scan (CBCT), which allows us to obtain an accurate three-dimensional image of the maxillofacial structures including not only the bones and teeth, but also the nerves using the Hololens 2 goggles - AR therefore does not take us to virtual reality (VR), but adds objects to the image of reality in which we find ourselves - emphasizes Prof. Skucha - Nowak.
The AR technology used in the CarnaLife Holo allows doctors to be far more precise both in planning the surgical procedure and during the procedure itself. The 3D holographic image is superimposed on the natural image, and in this way the surgical field is made more visible, allowing the procedure to be performed with extreme accuracy, such as keeping the surrounding tissues intact and reducing the invasiveness of the surgical intervention as much as possible. - My team and I have used this technology for preoperative as well as intraoperative planning. The integration of augmented reality technology and the use of holograms in surgical planning, h...
