Restorative Excellence - Occlusion on Implant Retained Restorations

LOD-176-00

Dr. Stefan Paul

48 min

<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">In this in-depth presentation regarding Occlusion on Implant Retained Restorations, we will examine several cases. We will look at a case that is all to common where right after final delivery, major chipping takes place.  <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Sometimes we receive an emergency case where perhaps a patient has a bicycle accident.  <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">What do we do?  <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Do we place an implant?  <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Do we deliver an immediately fixed temporary restoration?  <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">And what occlusion are we going to give in order not to interfere and cause loosening of the implant and losing osseointegration?  <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">What about an even more demanding clinical situation, such as a missing canine where the plan is to place an implant and deliver an immediate temporary restoration?  <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">What occlusal concept are we going to utilize to prevent interference with good bone healing?  To make it even more demanding we will look at a case where there is an interior gap, canine to canine, where, again implant placement is the plan. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"> How are we going to design our occlusal schematic so that the patient is not going to clench on these teeth at night, and possibly punch out our implants?  <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">And, finally, we will examine a very challenging case where we have a maxillary and mandibular full-arch restoration, and incorporate an occlusal concept of a mixed dentition with implants on natural teeth (vs implants on implants).</p>                                

Aesthetic Treatment Planning - The Smile Design

LOD-174-00

Dr. Saiesha Mistry

67 min

<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">Comprehensive treatment planning is essential for the satisfactory outcome of any case. Contemporary treatments are not considered successful unless the final outcome is not only functional but also aesthetic. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">As a result an Aesthetic Analysis has become integral to every treatment plan.</p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">This lecture will lay down a systematic approach for an aesthetic examination and the subsequent analysis of the collated information so as to predictably design and execute the most aesthetic treatments for our patients. </p>

Soft Tissue Esthetics & Health - 10 Key Factors in Soft Tissue Management

LOD-173-00

Dr. Sascha A. Jovanovic

62 min

<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">There are 10 key criteria that are important in implant therapy to achieve optimal soft tissue outcomes. The criteria are divided into 2 areas. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">The first area involves the biomaterial elements in therapy, while the second involves procedural issues. The biomaterial elements of implant surface, the implant neck, abutment material, the sub gingival abutment design, and abutment reconnection will be discussed. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">The procedural elements covered are implant spacing, implant vertical positioning, bone and soft grafting and provisional management. <br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">This presentation will focus on the 10 key criteria as applied in implant therapy for selected patients. </p>

LOD-167-00

Dr. Christopher Ho

67 min

<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">This lecture will discuss the 7 essential keys to success in Aesthetic Implant Restorations:</p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">1) Implant position, including bucco-lingual, apico-coronal and mesio-distal.  </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">2) Abutment design, including shape and form, how we want our implants to be more negative, especially in the mid-labial to maximize tissue thickness.  </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">3) Provisionalisation: how to develop provisionals using different types from cement-on to screw-retained, and how we modify that for our soft tissue aesthetics while using a restoratively based technique.  </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">4) Impression technique: how do we transfer the information from our provisional crown to our final impression. </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">5) abutment selection: we will discuss different abutment materials from gold, to titanium, to zirconia, and how do we determine which to use based on biocompatibility, aesthetics, cost, and strength. </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">6) Ceramics: the materials we choose to go on top of our implants and natural teeth, and how we decide which one to use for which case.  </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </p> <p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">7) implant papilla: how do we get good soft tissue aesthetics both for single teeth and cases where there are adjacent implants.</p>
