    Statistical shape models (SSM) can accurately reconstruct missing tooth axes, providing valuable data for virtual implant planning.

  • 3

    This study aims to assess the correlation between anatomically reconstructed tooth axes and clinically determined implant axes.

    The research involved a retrospective review of single-tooth implant cases at the University of Freiburg from 2018 to 2021.

  • 5

    The study's findings could enhance the objectivity and efficiency of implant planning by integrating SSM technology.
