Abstract: The digital processing of anatomical data uses virtual models, which accurately represent the patient's anatomy. The images obtained are used mainly in diagnosis and clinical case planning, but can also be printed. The objective of this study was to report a case of using digital flow in a pediatric dentistry consultation. Study with a qualitative approach with descriptive/observational objectives The research was approved by the Research Ethics Committee with opinion no. 7,061,928, and took place in the municipality of Mato Verde-MG at Faculdade Verde Norte - FAVENORTE. An eleven-year-old female patient was taken by the person in charge at the FAVENORTE dentistry clinic to carry out screening and assessment of needs through digital flow. The patient's anamnesis was taken and then diagnostic scanning was carried out. The information obtained through the digital flow was analyzed together with that obtained through the clinical and radiographic examination, in order to create a treatment plan for the patient. It is of fundamental importance that professionals know about the digital flow in dentistry, as the use of technology allows greater predictability of treatments and benefits for professionals and patients. In the case reported, the digital flow proved to be a valuable tool for an adequate diagnosis and better communication between the professional and the patient about the treatment.
