Replacing missing teeth with an implant-supported restoration represents both a surgical and restorative challenge. Proper pre-surgical prosthetic planning involves understanding the patient’s bony anatomy, adjacent teeth, vital structures, occlusion, and desired aesthetics. Cone Beam CT imaging modalities provide necessary 3-D information when combined with state-of-the-art software-driven tools provide clinicians and dental laboratory technicians with the new digital workflow and 3-D printing technology, helping to avoid complications and achieving successful implant reconstruction for single tooth to full arch restorations. As technology has evolved, so has guided surgical applications and the refinement of the instrumentation required to accurately execute the planned position of the implants.   Learning objectives: To improve diagnosis using 3-D CBCT imaging and computer software applications Understand the “Triangle of Bone” Concept to assess implant receptor sites Understand benefits of surgical templates and guided surgery protocols
