Tissue Engineering for Hard and Soft Tissue Regeneration - Clinical and Applied Results
LOD-064-00
Dr. E. Todd Scheyer
The promising field of periodontal tissue engineering, barely a decade old, is likely to revolutionize Periodontics. Cell based man-made skin, the first commercial product of tissue engineering, is already on the market and other variations will soon join it. Recombinant technology has provided us the first fully synthetic powerful growth factor available in periodontics with r-PDGF-BB which has been critically evaluated in all areas of periodontal research. This course will provide an overview of biologically based and live cell based tissue substitutes. Results from human and animal studies using biomimetics and tissue engineering to facilitate root coverage and bone formation will be discussed and human histology will be reviewed. Expanded clinical applications of growth factor influenced wound healing in tissue regeneration will also be presented.

The course will assist dentists in developing a plan to create a digital or chartless practice. We will look at the six components of a digital practice and how to make intelligent decisions for purchasing each component. We will also look at the process to integrate all of these components together.

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.

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.
