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.

Veneer Restorations - Essential Steps for Esthetic Success

LOD-124-00

49 min

Laminate Ceramic Veneers are widely accepted as the treatment of choice for long term esthetic anterior restorations. Among many advantages, when compared with conventional crown preparation, this modality of treatment allows the clinician to obtain an outstanding result in terms of esthetic, as well as a conservative preparation, saving a great amount of tooth structure if correct planning is applied. Temporary restorations will be described carefully to help the dentist and the patient have a preview of the final treatment. Clinical success also depends on bonding procedures. Each detail of the most recommended technique for luting a ceramic veneer will be presented. The correct treatment planning is based on photography documentation, comunication with the laboratory and clinical steps. All of which will be discussed in this presentation.

Ridge Augmentation Using rhPDGF Growth Factors

LOD-121-00

Prof. Massimo Simion

40 min

This lecture covers the topic of ridge augmentation using the line of growthfactors termed rhPDGF (Gem-21) mixed with xenograft, TCP and autograft for implant placement. The scientific background and the first clinical cases are discussed and demonstrated. The new bone graft material shows to be an enhancement to the current technique of GBR.

Technology & Artistry

LOD-120-00

Michel Magne MDT

70 min

The knowledge about natural oral esthetics and the interactive relationship between patient-clinician-technician constitute the basic strategies for successful esthetic rehabilitations. No matter how powerful technology becomes in today

Anterior Implant Positioning for Ideal Abutment Design, Biology and Function & Abutment Materials and Design, Part II

LOD-111-02

Dr. Edward A. McLaren

69 min

This lecture focuses on materials, and combination cases: how to deal with a veneer and a crown, whether the crown is on a natural tooth or an implant. But first, an introduction on digital dental photography: what camera to use for what situation, and tips and tricks for optimal results.

Anterior Implant Positioning for Ideal Abutment Design, Biology and Function & Abutment Materials and Design, Part I

LOD-111-01

Dr. Edward A. McLaren

69 min

This lecture explores implant placement relative to esthetics, specifically the recommended thought process for the implantologist when determining implant position to achieve a proper abutment design for esthetics. Materials for abutments will also be discussed and what cements to use for the anterior part of the region, with a focus on all-in-one cements.
