Course Description
The use of dental implants in the previous two decades has created many new andexciting possibilities in the prosthetic treatment of our patients. Restoring form and function with dental implants has become a routine procedure in many dental practices. Treatment may vary from the replacement of a single tooth to the reconstruction of a totally edentulous mouth.
This upbeat course will explore many of the important parameters and challenges of creating esthetic and functional restorations supported by dental implants. The clinical material will cover each of the categories listed below as well as provide supporting clinical evidence covering a span of the last 20 years.
- Single tooth restorations – anterior and posterior – tooth colored abutments
- Partial edentulous restorations – anterior and posterior – to splint or not to splint?
- Overdenture restorations – including the severely atrophic mandible
- Full edentulous fixed restorations – maxillary and mandibular
Course Objectives: After the completion of this course participants will have learned:
- To understand relevant paramenters in choosing an appropriate implant system
- To treatment plan for dental implants in each of the listed categories
- To sequence restorative and surgical phases of treatment including provisionalization, early and immediate loading and indexing
- Continued care of implant restorations and problem solving
- Understand how to market implants in your practice
