Patient Options for the Edentulous Maxilla
LOD-271-00
Dr. Yvan Fortin
In this lecture, Dr. Yvan Fortin will discuss the Fully Edentulous Maxilla. He will focus on solutions without bone grafting and without restorative compromise. He will discuss different surgical tools such as short implants, tilted implants, and zygomatic implants. He will also discuss various prosthetic options: a fixed bridge with natural papillae, a fixed bridge replacing soft tissue deficiency including papillae, and a fixed-detachable bridge managing lip support with flange. Dr. Fortin will discuss 'molar-to-malar alignment' with zygomatic implants. It is a unique approach that is minimally invasive, predictable, and provides excellent stability with just a regular flap, and produces impressive results.<br /><br><br><span style="font-size:9px">Release: 1/29/2015 | Expires: 1/29/2018</span>
Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures (Part 4 of 4)
LOD-269-00
Dr. Oswaldo Scopin de Andrade
In Part 4 of his 4 part series on Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures, Dr. Oswaldo Scopin will present a step-by-step case report of a full mouth reconstruction based on the same procedure that is typically done for single restorations.<br /><br />He will discuss the importance of the lab and will demonstrate clinical techniques for the best possible conservative approach for this sort of rehabilitation. When do we need to prep? When do we not need to prep?<br /><br />Dr. Scopin will show some cases where prepping the tooth is needed and you have pre-existing composite. He will discuss thin veneers, and what is important to understand when selecting a prep or no prep design for laminated veneers. <br /><br />Dr. Scopin will close with a case report showing a patient who needs to increase the vertical dimension only to the bonded restoration.
Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures (Part 3 of 4)
LOD-268-00
Dr. Oswaldo Scopin de Andrade
In Part 3 of his 4 part series on Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures, Dr. Oswaldo Scopin will present how you can protect dentin. He will discuss the resin coating technique which he has used for over 10 years with great results. Dr Scopin will show how you can protect dentin with just a regular dentin adhesive system. He will demonstrate step-by-step how you can do this in several different cases. In the last case of this presentation, Dr Scopin will show how to lute, and how to bond zirconia over dentin.
Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures (Part 2 of 4)
LOD-267-00
Dr. Oswaldo Scopin de Andrade
In Part 2 of his 4 part series on Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures, Dr. Oswaldo Scopin will present his process of working with resin cement, and how to do bonding to enamel which is very important. It is important to understand the structure. It is important to select the best strategy to bond or to lute ceramic restorations over each type of tooth structure. Dr Scopin will show a step by step video sequence in how to do bonding procedure and how to do a very precise bonding procedure for a thin veneer case.
Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures (Part 1 of 4)
LOD-266-00
Dr. Oswaldo Scopin de Andrade
English
In Part 1 of this 4 part series on Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures, Dr. Oswaldo Scopin will start with a short introduction about this concept which is essential for clinical longevity. He will present his findings from a study he published showing results from a long-term analysis of laminate veneers.<br /><br />Dr Scopin will explain the important steps to achieve the 'perfect' margin of a restoration. How do you continue this year after year? What is important to maintain clinical control? How do we achieve the 'perfect' marginal adaptation? Do we change the preparation? Do we change the ceramic? Do we try to preserve more tooth structure? Each of these questions will be addressed, all with a focus on minimally invasive restorative dentistry.
Full Mouth Rehabilitation (Part 2 of 2) - Esthetic & Function
LOD-265-00
Dr. Francesco Mintrone
English
In this second part of his two part Lecture Series on Full Mouth Rehabilitation, Dr Francesco Mintrone will discuss the details of planning cases with specific emphasis on aspects of esthetics and function. He will begin with cases involving implants and natural teeth and will end up with a case where he will have to perform a full mouth rehabilitation.<br><br><a href="http://gidedental.com/ShopItem.aspx?idProduto=1178">click here</a> for more info on Part 1.<br /><br><br><span style="font-size:9px">Release: 1/5/2015 | Expires: 1/5/2018</span>
Flapless Surgery for Implant Placement
LOD-264-00
In this lecture Dr William Becker will demonstrate how with implant placement experience you can easily transition into minimally invasive flapless procedures. Utilizing a simple protocol for diagnosis and treatment planning (like one would do for any other patient) and a precision drill you can achieve an osteotomy with no bleeding, and no post-operative pain. With real cases he will walk you through step-by-step.<br /><br><br><span style="font-size:9px">Release: 1/14/2015 | Expires: 1/14/2018</span>
Nutrition - Designing Smiles from the Inside Out
LOD-262-00
Dr. Sanda Moldovan
In this presentation, Dr Sanda Moldovan will discuss nutrition as it applies to patient outcomes.<br /><br />After years of study and experience as both a periodontist and nutritionist, Dr Moldovan has seen the connection between nutrition and clinical results.<br /><br />We have a global epidemic of obesity Today. Over 30% of US adults are obese. What does that mean for us as practitioners? We know that these patients are not going to heal well. They are going to have a lot of inflamation, pain, and excessive swelling. This presentation will discuss how to deal with these patients.<br /><br />Dr. Moldovan will discuss what is important in bone healing and soft tissue healing, and what nutritional support options are available for maximizing these processes.<br /><br><br><span style="font-size:9px">Release: 1/24/2015 | Expires: 1/24/2018</span>
LOD-261-00
Dr. Edmond Bedrossian
In this presentation Dr Edmond Bedrossian follows up on his previous lecture 'A systematic surgical and restorative plan for treatment of the Edentulous Patient with a Fixed Prosthesis' (catalog #141-00). He will begin by highlighting the differences between the tooth-only defect patient, and the composite defect patient. He will step through 4 different cases, explaining each step that is necessary for a predictable outcome.<br /><br />Dr Bedrossian will discuss the interarch space as well as the indications for alveolaplasty: economic, technical, and esthetic.<br><br><span style="font-size:9px">Release: 11/11/2014 | Expires: 11/11/2017</span>
Alveolar Ridge Preservation for Implant and Pontic Site Development
LOD-249-00
Dr. Barry Bartee
In this presentation Dr. Bartee will discuss the scientific basis for ridge preservation. He will discuss the materials that are available and the pros and cons of each. Dr Bartee will show a technique that he developed using Dense PTFE membrane with and without collagen for the treatment of simple defects, as well as more complex defects. Dr Bartee will also share an approach to treatment planning that is organized, and systematic so that you can have some idea before you start the case of a logical sequential treatment plan that will result in predictability.<br><br><span style="font-size:9px">Release: 11/7/2014 | Expires: 11/7/2017</span>
