Newest Dental Laboratory Techniques in Implant Esthetics

LOD-168-00

Dr. Renzo Casellini

45 min

<span id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_gvProdutos_ctl458_labelConteudoHtml"> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">This lecture will present  tissue management for anterior cases, the newest techniques in implant esthetics from single crowns to full mouth restorations on zirconia to PFM metal ceramic restorations or acrylic composite restorations.  It will examine the difference between PFM metal restorations and zirconia fixed, cemented, or screw-retained.</p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">This lecture will discuss the key elements of a Team Approach between the surgeon, the periodontist, the dentist, and the certified dental technologist so that success is achieved.</p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">You will learn about the 3D Pre-Planning with CAD/CAM on SIM-Plant that can help you determine exactly what kind of abutments will be best for the patient.</p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">And, finally, it will take you, step-by-step, through a case that begins as a disaster.  Everything has to be extracted: Upper and lower.  Multiple implants are placed. It is restored with full zirconia, and ends up an esthetic and functional success.</p></span>

Fixed Hybrid Prosthesis utilizing Zirconia - New Materials and Protocols

LOD-165-00

Dr. Stefano Conti

Cirugia Plastica Oral (SPANISH LANGUAGE ONLY)

LOD-156-00

Dr. Nelson Carranza

72 min

<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Our patients are requesting almost perfect esthetic results. Restorative dentistry is responding with new materials and techniques that allow wonderful tooth mimicking. In many cases, especially in implant dentistry, the challenge still present today relies on soft tissue management. Periodontal surgery is evolving to meet these challenges into a new concept termed

The Art and Science of Surgical Crown Lengthening

LOD-137-00

Dr. Barry Wagenberg

46 min

Surgical Crown Lengthening is one of the most misunderstood and difficult procedures to perform. It's time consuming, it's technically and psychologically difficult, and requires the therapist to remove a substantial amount of tooth structure and bone around adjacent roots. The procedure that is demonstrated in this lecture will feature a technique in which you can preserve the coronal bone, and determine whether the crown lengthening procedure is feasible, or will it endanger the adjacent root structures, or will it create a set of defects prior to removing any adjacent bone.

Gingiva Colored Ceramics in Esthetic Dentistry

LOD-125-00

Dr. Harel Simon

61 min

Healthy appearance of the supporting tissue and its architecture are key components for achieving an esthetic dental restoration. It is therefore essential that the gingival tissue surrounding a restoration would be similar to that of the healthy adjacent teeth to create the illusion of natural dentition. Since the majority of patients tend to display a portion of their gingivae in a normal smile, lack of adequate gingival architecture and proper edentulous ridge contour in the horizontal and vertical dimensions may result in compromised esthetics and will, therefore, require further intervention.<br>The use of gingiva-colored ceramics has been suggested to address the esthetic needs in such patients. The purpose of this presentation is to discuss the importance of proper gingival architecture and demonstrate the use of gingiva-colored ceramics in esthetic implant dentistry.
