ABSTRACT
This review aims to explore the most common digital technologies encountered in implant-prosthetic rehabilitation of partially edentulous patients, highlighting their objectives, benefits, limits, and management strategies. A narrative review was performed using a non-systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. Keywords included “partial edentulism,” “implants,” “implant-prosthetic,” “rehabilitation,” “digital,” “digital technologies,” and “software.” Studies from the last 10–15 years were selected based on relevance to the subject, clinical applicability, and contribution to current understanding. Digital technologies support a multidisciplinary and personalized approach in implant-prosthetic rehabilitation by enabling precise diagnosis of stomatognathic dysfunctions and predictable, digitally-assisted surgical interventions. Their use enhances clinical accuracy, optimizes treatment efficiency, and contributes to cost-effective, patient-centered care with long-term success. The limitations of techniques based on the digital workflow are primarily linked to the accuracy of data acquisition from CBCT images and the integration of various data sets, such as radiographic images, intraoral optical scans, or scans of conventional extraoral impressions.
