Dr. Edward A. McLaren
This lecture explores implant placement relative to esthetics, specifically the recommended thought process for the implantologist when determining implant position to achieve a proper abutment design for esthetics. Materials for abutments will also be discussed and what cements to use for the anterior part of the region, with a focus on all-in-one cements.

Immediate Placement in Fresh Extraction Socket - State of the Art
LOD-101-00
Dr. Tiziano Testori
This lecture will highlight the biologic and clinical evidence of immediate implant placement into extraction sockets. Research findings are presented in a clinical logical fashion and used to support clinical protocols to place implants successfully in patients with extraction sites. Surgical important criteria like implant position, socket grafting and loading protocols are discussed. The healing phenomena after tooth extraction is used as an leading thread on how to treat an extraction site implant placement.

The Success of Endodontic Therapy - Healing and Function
LOD-089-00
Dr. Shimon Friedman
The Success of Endodontic Therapy - Healing and Function<br>Over 30% of root-filled teeth in the population present with persistent disease, suggesting an extensive need to manage the affected teeth. Treatment options include extraction and replacement, orthograde retreatment and apical surgery, and selection between these can often be complex. When the patient is motivated to retain the affected tooth, a key consideration is the prognosis, or potential for healing; therefore, the prognosis should be communicated to patients in a clear and objective manner. This lecture focuses on the prognosis of orthograde retreatment and apical surgery.<br><br>Inconsistent reports on the prognosis of orthograde retreatment and apical surgery, in contrast with consistently favourable reports for implant-supported single-tooth replacement, have caused considerable confusion in the profession. To reliably reflect the prognosis, studies must conform to design and methodology criteria consistent with an acceptable level of evidence. These criteria are met by only a few studies on retreatment and apical surgery. This lecture identifies the studies that provide the best evidence and outlines the prognosis of retreatment and apical surgery in regards to healing and symptom-free function of the treated teeth. Furthermore, specific clinical factors are highlighted that may influence the prognosis.

Endodontic Rotary Instrumentation - How to achieve maximum efficiency while eliminating failure
LOD-085-00
Dr. John T. McSpadden
There may be more instrumentation technique recommendations than there are endodontic instruments available. Obviously, all cannot be the 'best' approach. Are these techniques confusing motion with accomplishment and time with safety? This presentation describes 6 basic principles that enable the practitioner to maximize endodontic rotary instrumentation in terms of effectiveness, efficiency and safety for any type endodontic file available today and as they become available in the future. Saving valuable time and eliminating pernicious stress are the result.
