Biological Data for Bone Integration

LOD-018-00

Dr. Peter Schupbach

90 min

The scientific evidence on the biomaterial surface TiUniteTM will be given and compared to other implant surfaces. Several studies confirm and support the clinical benefits of the remarkable osseoconductive properties of TiUniteTM, allowing bone to grow along the implant surface and into the pores of the surface. This results in faster osseointegration and higher biological stability, thus minimizing time at risk for effective and safe Immediate FunctionTM. The clinical implications of TiUnite as Immdiate FunctionTM, reduced marginal bone loss, soft tissue integration and predictable esthetics will be discussed. In addition the scientific evidence of micro grooves along the threads and around the implant shoulder will be given. The introduction of the Groovy technology provides yet another step in implant development. With this technology, the speed of osseointegration can be further increased. The biological stability is enhanced by up to 30% allowing the use of groovy implants in soft bone.

Are Single Tooth Implants Right for Your Practice?

LOD-017-02

Dr. Jack Hahn

90 min

The participants in this program will see how simple and predictable single implant placements can be. Dr. Jack Hahn has over thirty years of experience in Implant Dentistry and has taught general dentists world-wide. Doctors who have taken Dr. Hahn�?�¢�??�??s course are placing their own safe, simple predictable implants.

Complications in Dentoalveolar Surgery

LOD-016-00

Dr. Earl Freymiller

90 min

Although the risks of complications associated with dentoalveolar surgery can oftentimes be greatly reduced, they cannot be completely eliminated. It is impossible to practice dentoalveolar surgery without experiencing the occasional complication. In the course of this lecture, the more common complications will be discussed in detail, as well as some less commonly encountered complications that have the potential for serious consequences. The lecture will specifically focus on ways to prevent or reduce the risk of various complications, how to recognize complications when they occur, and appropriate methods of treatment

Challenging Composite Restoration With Free-Hand-Bonding - An Illusion Became Reality

LOD-008-00

Dr. Didier Dietschi

60 min

The growing concern of patients for tissue preservation and oral aesthetics has rejuvenated 'free-hand bonding with composites' and made it a primary treatment option for the anterior teeth. This lecture covers fundamental knowledge about color and optical properties, different treatment options with composite restorations, and provides a comprehensive description of clinical procedures.

Edentulous Jaw and Different Implant Treatment Options

LOD-002-12

Dr. Sascha A. Jovanovic

103 min

The options of treating the edentulous jaw will be described in detail. Radiographic and clinical analysis will demonstrate which option can be used by the dental team for implant and prosthetic reconstruction.<br><br><b>Mandible:</b><br>This lecture will discuss the surgical treatment steps of the mandible with 2, 4 and 6 implants and its prosthetic outcome for removable or fixed benefits.<br><br><b>Maxilla:</b><br>This lecture will discuss the surgical treatment steps of the maxilla with 4, 6 and 8 implants and its prosthetic benefits.<br>Medications for surgical treatment and pre-operative planning will be discussed.

The Edentulous Jaw Restoration - An evaluation of different restorative options

LOD-002-11

Dr. George Perri

62 min

Edentulous patients desire restoration of their chewing ability and esthetic enhancement. This presentation will provide treatment planning, indications and expectations for different restorative options for the edentulous jaw. Treatment steps will be presented how to successfully choose between a removable and a fixed prosthesis and how to educate the patient. A focus is made on removable overlay challenges and how to manage them.

Immediate tooth replacement and surgical challenges

LOD-002-10

Dr. Sascha A. Jovanovic

75 min

Tissue preservation is the main focus of this presentation. This lecture will discuss in detail the indication and steps for immediate tooth replacement of a healed and a fresh extraction socket. The needed bone quantity and quality, soft tissue biotype and implant choice and stability will be presented. Flapless surgery has increased in indication due to its simplicity and atraumatic healing capacity, but needs to be executed carefully to ensure implant success.

Immediate Tooth Replacement and Restorative challenges

LOD-002-09

Dr. George Perri

46 min

Diagnosing cases and case acceptance for ITR. Immediate temporization concepts and abutment choice. Final restorative design and loading period.

Anterior surgical Implant placement - Multiple Anterior Teeth

LOD-002-08

Dr. Sascha A. Jovanovic

50 min

This lecture will present the clinical management of soft and hard tissues and how to support the ideal 3-D placed implant. The viewer will learn how to preserve or regenerate peri-implant bone and soft tissue and get a predictable aesthetic implant result.
