Treatment Planning and Prosthetic Procedures for Single Implant Crowns
LOD-022-02
Dr. Sam Strong
The single posterior implant crown can be the most productive, profitable, and complaint-free procedure in dentistry. Methods for surgical template construction, implant placement, and streamlined prosthetics are explained in this program. Application and advantages of the Nobel Easy Abutment and Snappy Abutment are shown in step by step protocol as well as the rationale for a fixture level impression to employ pre-machined titanium or Procera ceramic abutments.
How to successfully evaluate and present cases, including determining fees; A proven protocol
LOD-022-01
Dr. Sam Strong
This program reviews a succession of appointments to analyze cases for implant treatment. Beginning with the initial exam through diagnostic workup and case presentation, an organized method for evaluation is presented. Case presentation is a 'make it or break it' event requiring effective presentation skills and use of visual aids by the dentist or auxiliary team member. Various means of conveying this needed information are shown that will allow the patient to make an intelligent, informed decision about implant therapy and alternatives.

Soft Tissue Behaviour And Integration Around Dental Implants <br>
LOD-021-00
Dr. Peter Schupbach
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 conductive properties of TiUniteTM, allowing bone and soft tissue to adhere 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.
Biological Data for Bone Integration

Dr. Peter Schupbach
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.

Are Single Tooth Implants Right for Your Practice?
LOD-017-02
Dr. Jack Hahn
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.
Edentulous Jaw and Different Implant Treatment Options
LOD-002-12
Dr. Sascha A. Jovanovic
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
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
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.
