Summary:The treatment of complete or single arch edentulism remains a significant priority for dental clinicians. Patients often request immediate loading for complex complete arch treatments with shorter treatment times and fewer appointments, and digital technologies can be leveraged to provide more effective treatments. This part 1 presentation focuses on the discussion of commonly seen complications related to using digital technologies in treating edentulous patients during the data collection and surgical planning stages. Complications related to digital technologies can be prevented or corrected during these stages, preventing future complications in the clinical (surgical and prosthetic) stages.
