Abstract
Digital dentistry has contributed to the evolution and simpli fication of dental implantology over the last decade. The incorporation of intraoral scanners, CBCT, 3D implantplan ning software, and CAD/CAM systems makes prosthetically driven implantology a straightforward process. Such digital resources for treatment planning and execution, following evidencebased concepts, have the ability to improve the longterm esthetics and function of implantsupported res torations as well the longterm survival of dental implants. Dental implants are frequently considered as the first treat ment option for replacing failing or missing teeth. However, their use in the esthetic zone remains a challenge for many clinicians. The present article provides clinical guidelines for ideal implant positioning employing computerguided sur gery and chairside CAD/CAMfabricated provisional and definitive restorations with titanium (Ti)bases for successful prosthetic outcomes, optimizing gingival architecture, and decreasing overall treatment duration.
