CV-053
Dr. Robert Carvalho da Silva
In this case presentation, Dr Silva will demonstrate, step-by-step, the procedures associated with implant placement from diagnosis to final prosthesis delivery. He will present a useful decision-tree that will serve as useful reference when approaching similar cases.

The edentulous patient is in need of a solution to stabilize a prosthesis to prevent malnutrition, progressive bone loss and social embarrassment.<BR><BR>Rehabilitation concepts for the edentulous patient depend on bone resorption, Smile-line, general and dental health, social and professional activities, age, and budget of the patient. Success relies on the edentulous anatomy, proper planning, surgical and restorative technique used, and factors related to patient's healing behavior.<BR><BR>The referred patient in this video is a healthy, 50-year old non-smoking male with a low lip-line and an edentulous upper jaw with an old ill-fitting denture. The case is shown from the surgical side and the lab technical side. NobelClinician 3-D planning software and surgical template are used to plan the flap design and surgical steps of implant placements.<BR><BR>Alveolar reduction, All-on-4 guide and axial and tilted implant positions are shown with the details of these steps. The fabrication and transition of the denture to a fixed hybrid denture are shown with an exit interview of the happy patient.<BR><BR>Part 1 of this patient treatment (available on CV-51) demonstrates the patient consultation, oral examination, 3D treatment planning and preparation for the surgical step.

Gingival Recession therapy is one important solution in contemporary periodontics.<br />Success relies on the localized anatomy, selected technique, and factors related to patient's healing response and post-op behavior.<br /><br />The referred patient was a healthy, 26-year old female non-smoker with a gummy smile and localized Miller's Class I gingival recessions. The recession was 5 to 6 mm deep on both upper first canines.<br /><br />Oblique and paramarginal incision were used to create the flap design, and a CT graft was used to improve the thickness of the gingival margins. Enamel Matrix Derivative (Emdogain) was also used to improve the healing aspect.<br /><br />Two-and-a-half-years follow-up depicts 100% root coverage with excellent color match and volume as compared with adjacent teeth and gingival margins.

This high-quality clinical video demonstrates the vertical ridge augmentation technique using a bone graft combination with rhBMP-2, Autograft, Xenograft and Ti-mesh in a 71-year old healthy female treated for severe posterior left mandibular vertical ridge resorption.<BR><BR>The patient had received 2 implants in the same area 9 years prior which failed and resulted in vertical and horizontal ridge resorption. One implant in position 19 and tooth # 21 were still in place but presented with advanced bone loss and were planed for extraction/removal 2 months prior to the vertical augmentation technique as a step 1 treatment. The patient had further a stable periodontium and remaining dentition.<BR><BR>This video demonstrates in detail the surgical steps with micro- and macro surgical techniques of step 2: a staged vertical ridge augmentation technique and the placement of a bone graft combination with rhBMP-2, Autograft, Xenograft and Ti-mesh. The following details are discussed and demonstrated in this video: the diagnostics and treatment planing, the flap design, and -elevation, the bone graft protocol with 2.8 cc rhBMP-2 and a 1:1 ratio of autogenous and xenograft, the trimming, placement and fixation of the Ti-mesh, the periosteal flap release and coronal repositioning and the primary closure with PTFE sutures.<BR><BR>As a follow-up the clinical photo is shown of the 4-week uneventful healing outcome. The patient is presented from initial start of treatment to the follow-up appointment during healing and narrated before and after treatment by Dr Sascha Jovanovic. A part 2 of this video will follow and demonstrate the result of the vertical BMP graft and the placement of implants.<BR><BR>For further information on rhBMP-2 science and clinic view the LOD 054 by Dr Wikesjo and the CV-37/38/39 by Dr Jovanovic in the gIDE library.

This high-quality clinical video demonstrates the implant placement 12 months after a horizontal ridge augmentation procedure and the treatment results in a 50-year old healthy female treated for a thin, knife edge ridge in the mandibular posterior zone using a resorbable membrane and particulated autogenous bone with xenograft and rhPDGF (GEM-21).<BR><BR> This video demonstrates in detail the surgical steps with microsurgical techniques to evaluate a staged horizontal ridge augmentation and the placement of 3 implants. The following details are discussed and demonstrated in this video: the diagnostics and treatment planing, the flapdesgn and -elevation, the bone regeneration result evaluation, three implant placements, the periosteal flap release and coronal repositioning and the primary closure with PTFE sutures.<BR><BR>As a follow-up the panoramic radiograph are shown of the 2-week outcome. The patient is presented from initial start of treatment to the follow-up appointments during healing and narrated throughout by Dr Sascha Jovanovic. A part 1 of this video was released under CV-45 will demonstrate the first step of the treatment and the placement of the Bone Graft mixtur.
Previsualization in Esthetic Dentistry - A Useful System for Truly Informed Esthetic Treatment

Dr. Francesco Mintrone
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Previsualization is a useful system for truly informed esthetic treatment. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">The constant increase in esthetic demand, driven by the false images of beauty presented in the media, has resulted in a greater need among clinicians to avoid creating false expectations and to provide a precise description of treatment plan. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">In this video, Dr. Mintrone will demonstrate previsualization in case involving a 33 year old female looking to close the diastema between her two front teeth and improve overall esthetics.</p>
