Abstract: Implant treatment in the aesthetic zone has always been difficult in the field of implant. A precise prosthetic-driven surgery is the key to the success of implant restoration in the aesthetic zone. With the era of big data approaching, the full digital process has become the tendency of future development. The full digital implant treatment integrates CAD/CAM(computer aided design / computer aided manufacturing,CAD/CAM)technology into the entire implant treatment process. Digital technology can not only make temporary prostheses at the same period after surgery, but also make temporary prostheses preoperatively, which greatly saves the chair side operation time. This article describes the process and technology of digital implant in aesthetic zone, hoping to provide a reference for clinicians to carry out digital implant treatment in the aesthetic zone.
