Treatment of the edentulous maxilla with immediate function (SPANISH LANGUAGE ONLY)
LOD-057-00
Dr. Joan Pi Urgell
Uno de los temas de mayor actualidad en Implantologia Oral es la posibilidad de someter a funcion oclusal,de una forma inmediata los implantes,evitando el tiempo de espera correspondiente a la Oseointegracion En el Maxilar Inferior se han obtenido unos resultados excelentes,con extensa bibliografia que evidencian un alto grado de predictibilidad. Los mismos resultados se pueden obtener en el Maxilar Superior siguiendo unos protocolos perfectamente definidos. El objetivo de esta presentacion es la descripcion de las bases cientificas para la funcion inmediata,su aplicacion clinica y las distintas alternativas o protocolos para el tratamiento del maxilar superior,analizando los factores mas importantes y los resultados obtenidos.
Predictable Anterior Aesthetics with Veneers - Interdisciplinary Approach
LOD-055-00
Dr. Galip Gurel
Creating the precision in terms of the preparation, fit and the aesthetic final outcome with veneer restorations needs a detailed treatment plan which is unique to each case. Designing a new smile for a patient consists of many steps which are very important and if followed correctly, produce predictable success. The key to aesthetic excellence requires patient communication as well as the communication with the laboratory and the specialists from the beginning of the case till the end. This presentation will help the clinician to understand the clinical steps as well the patient communication steps.<br><br>In todays dentistry success depends on an interdisciplinary team work. Every member of the team (including the specialists, lab technicians and the patient) should be aware of the treatment planning and the end result from the beginning. Every effort should be spent to bring the teeth to their natural position on the dental arch, hence creating enough space for the restoration to be received so that the aim should be minimum tooth preparation.<br><br>After that stage, in order to achieve a very precise and predictable tooth preparation, wax-up, silicon indexes and related techniques such as APR (Aesthetic Pre Recontouring), APT (Aesthetic Pre-evaluative Temporaries) and preparation through the APTs are extremely crucial. This eliminates all the possible mistakes and destruction of the depth cutters that could have been done if the tooth was to be prepared without realizing the aging affects on the enamel (volumetric enamel loss) or their inappropriate teeth positions on the dental arch

This presentation will cover three main areas:<br>Literature review:Will consider occlusal loads and implants, posterior disclusion, horizontal and vertical components of the slide from centric relation to the intercuspal position, perception of occlusal loads, movement of teeth and implants, flexibility of the mandible, porcelain or acrylic on the occlusal surface.<br><br>Passivity of fit -<br>- The need for passiviity<br>- influence of the accuracy of the master cast,<br>- framework distortion resulting from porcelain firing shrinkage.<br><br>Occlusal principles :Will include detection of occlusal contacts, anterior guidance, posterior occlusal schemes and contacts, the prescription, clinical techniques.<br>Case presentations:To illustrate the above and to demonstrate the use of laser welding to achieve framework passivity and occlusal accuracy when providing metal ceramic full arch restorations.

This lecture will discuss current aesthetic and technical aspects of using zirconia frameworks for tooth and implant retained all ceramic restorations.
Posterior Composites Restorations (Direct and Semidirect Techniques)
LOD-043-00
Dr. Didier Dietschi
The reduction in the carious disease incidence and the growing concern of patients for potential toxicity of metals and for dental aesthetics, have called the profession for developing restorative options adapted to new demands. Composites and adhesive techniques have then become the foundation of modern restorative dentistry, following tremendous improvements in material mechanical performances, wear resistance and aesthetic potential. Composite resins are currently used in a broad range of situations, including the treatment of initial decay to the restoration of extended and serial cavities, or the adhesive luting of ceramic work-pieces. However, polymerisation shrinkage of the resin matrix remains a crucial problem and still imposes certain limitations for the use of direct techniques. Therefore, other restorative options such as semidirect and indirect techniques have to be considered for large and deep cavity configurations. The lecture will overview decision criteria for the treatment of posterior teeth, the main restorative options at hand and will provide a comprehensive description of clinical procedures.

Different types of discoloration, some of displasic origin and others from acquired pathologies or tissue aging can be improved or sometimes fully corrected by bleaching. Bleaching aims to remove or treat several types of dark stains. The lecture will emphasize on the principles, application methods and potential indications of the various bleaching techniques at hand. All different bleaching protocols have potential to lighten tooth colour but not at the same level of efficacy; information will be provided as regard the likely indications for power / chair-side bleaching and other home bleaching methods. Attendees will also learn how to integrate chemical treatments in a comprehensive approach of aesthetics, which ultimately help us creating beautiful and attractive smiles without unnecessary tissue sacrifice.
