Implant dentistry has always the final prosthesis in mind. The prosthetically driven implant prosthesis will assure good esthetics, function, and also hygiene. This will give long-time success. The use of medical imaging and software planning has resulted in a marked improvement in treatment planning. The virtual software helps in accuracy in treatment planning. Surgical guides can be fabricated from a computed tomography scan. A surgical guide is used to assist in proper surgical placement and angulation of the implants. A guide also increases the esthetic and functional aspect of prosthetically driven implant treatment.
