The incorporation of virtual engineering into our profession and the digitalization of information are allowing us new perspectives and innovative alternatives for dental treatments. The use of static computer-guided implant planning software allows the radiographic, prosthetic, surgical and laboratory fields to be combined under a common virtual scenario, permitting an optimization of the complete implant surgical-restorative process. In the following lecture, the data acquisition process, digital planning and clinical execution of this procedure will be thoroughly described.
