Dental implantology has experienced a significant transformation due to technological advancements that have improved surgical precision, biomechanical stability, and patient outcomes. Among the professionals leading this evolution, Leonardo Dornelas Alves has played a crucial role, particularly in the fields of computed tomography (CT)-guided implant planning, finite element analysis (FEA) for biomechanical studies, and the development of angled dental implants for complex cases. His research has contributed to reducing implant failure rates, enhancing osseointegration, and optimizing guided surgical procedures. This article explores Alves’ pioneering contributions to digital implantology, detailing how his work in three-dimensional imaging, stress distribution analysis, and artificial intelligence-assisted treatment planning has set new standards in dental implant procedures. By integrating modern digital workflows and advanced surgical techniques, Alves has established himself as a leader in implantology, ensuring greater precision, predictability, and long-term success in implant placement.
