Abstract: With the widespread application of digital technology in oral implantology, implant surgery and prosthetic procedures have been significantly optimized. However, the digital process of implant treatment for patients with edentulism has yet to be integrated. This paper combined the application of emerging digital technologies in the process of implant treatment for patients with edentulism and sorted out the full digital process in order to provide reference for implant specialists.
