      abstract = {This book describes the fusion of CBCT and CAD/CAM  technologies for the purpose of surgical dental treatments  and explains the advantages and applications of this  digital approach for implant placement procedures and other  oral surgical protocols. All aspects of computer-aided  imaging and design are first covered in the textbook,  including the creation of DICOM and STL files; followed by  the process of virtual merging to obtain a combined image.  Secondly, clinical tips for the use of digital wax up,  software interactions and accurate template fabrication are  explained, including subtractive and additive methods used  for this manufacturing step. The remainder of the book is  devoted to the application of technology fusion in  implantology, guided bone regeneration, and maxillofacial  surgery. Both static and dynamic guided surgeries are  described. Materials characteristics and surgical  instruments are also presented to define a correct  selection criteria. The digital approach outlined in this  textbook involves a paradigm shift in the way traditional  oral surgery is conceived. Technology fusion aims to  improve treatment accuracy, optimize clinical time and  reduce patient morbidity. Clinicians will find this book to  be a valuable guide for virtual surgical planning and a  path to introduce themselves into the exciting world of  digital dental surgery.},
