<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>

Dr. Stefano Conti
<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">This presentation will focus on a hybrid prosthesis, utilizing zirconia and the role of prosthetic gingiva in esthetic implant dentistry. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">We will see a pretty new treatment option that will give us the possibility to have complete control on the esthetic in a way that we have never been able to do before. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Some the questions that we will answer in this presentation are: <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Why should we provide a hybrid prosthesis for our patients instead of a traditional one? <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Is this prosthetic option really predictable in achieving a natural esthetic for long term success? <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Which materials should we use Today, and why?</p>
Gingiva Colored Ceramics in Esthetic Dentistry
LOD-125-00
Dr. Harel Simon
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.
Ridge Augmentation Using rhPDGF Growth Factors
LOD-121-00
Prof. Massimo Simion
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.

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

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.

Clinical Pharmacology - What Every Dentist Should Know

Dr. Anthony Feck
Modern dentistry has expanded the arsenal of services to restore patients oral health and cosmetic needs like never before. These changes have corresponded to an increasingly complex medical environment where patients are presenting at a more advanced age, with more medical conditions, and taking more medications. Understanding the pharmacology as it relates to their systems and how the drugs they are taking, as well as those we intend to administer affect the patient, one another, and our planned treatment is necessary for a safe and successful outcome to our planned care.
