Perio-Prosthetic Considerations Around Dental Implants<br>This course will discuss surgical and restorative concepts, procedures and solutions to improve the soft tissue emergence profile of implant and pontic sites in single implant restorations and implant bridges. The restorative choice of implant design and abutment material will be discussed and particularly the evidence of using Zirconia abutments as stable base for soft tissue esthetics and long term implant results.<br><br>The concept of using a concave or flat preplanned abutment via the cad-cam route and via the prefabricated route will be discussed and the steps preventing removal of abutments during the restorative phase.<br><br>This course will teach the restorative dentist the new concepts of zirconia abutment materials, the concave or flat abutment design and the immediate or early placement of the final abutment.

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.

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.
