Restoration of Failing Teeth with Implants in the Aesthetic Zone - Surgical and Prosthetic Keys to Success - Part 2

LOD-216-00

Dr. Tidu Mankoo

30 min

The purpose of this two part series on "Restoration of 'Failing Teeth' with Implants in the Aesthetic Zone" is to help you predictably achieve highly esthetic outcomes that restore function and stand the test of time. This lecture will present the sound biological principles that can help you approach the treatment of challenging cases where your patient has a seriously compromised dentition. Surgical and prosthetic considerations will be discussed. Is the tooth maintainable? Is it more predictable to maintain the compromised tooth or extract and place an implant? We should always try to save the tooth if possible, but determining this requires analysis of the patient: How old is the patient? What is the tooth's dental history? What is the structural integrity of the tooth? What is the periodontal status? What are the functional demands? This lecture will present and discuss the key elements that we must consider when thinking about implants in the esthetic zone.

Excellence in Dental Aesthetics: New Trends and Materials in Aesthetic Implantology

LOD-212-00

Luc Rutten MDT

34 min

Clinicians and dental technicians have access to an astounding array of new technologies, tools and materials to design predictable beautiful smiles.<BR><BR>This presentation puts an emphasis on a close co-operation between prosthodontist, periodontist, implantologist and dental technician. In addition, a focus is placed on different surgical, clinical and prosthetic techniques to achieve successful aesthetics.<BR><BR>Material selection is fundamental in management of complex rehabilitation and on implants. The aesthetic outcome and the natural appearance of the restoration depends on the skills of the dental technician. Understanding of the gingiva of the dental technician will be explained to re-create in a two-way communication an aesthetic end result. New concepts and trends with focus on zirconium dioxide and its excellent long-term behaviour and extraordinary mechanical properties, will be discussed to realize predictable natural oral aesthetics around implants.

Unusual TMD Cases - Unusual Treatment

LOD-196-00

Dr. Ilia Roussou

33 min

In this lecture, we will discuss unusual Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) cases and unusual treatments.<BR><BR>We will focus specifically on occlusion and how the relationship of the dental arches interacts with the stability of the Stomatognathic system.<BR><BR>Occlusion is one of the most demanding aspects of dentistry, we all know about the term occlusion confusion.<BR><BR>Although occlusion used to be the main etiological factor for Temporomandibular Disorders and many dental treatments were performed in order to address the pain symptoms, nowadays the literature suggest that the static relationship of the dental arches is rarely the etiological factor for an intracapsular TM joint disorders or a masticatory muscles disorders, In some cases though, were the occlusion compromises the orthopedic stability of the stomatognathic system, once the pain symptoms are treated the dental problem needs to be investigated as a possible etiological factor of the TMD symptoms.

Newest Dental Laboratory Techniques in Implant Esthetics

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.
