Achieving Ultimate Aesthetics with Implants in the Aesthetic Zone - Lecture III
LOD-035-03
Dr. Tidu Mankoo
Achieving Ultimate Aesthetics with Implants in the Aesthetic Zone<br>This advanced surgical and prosthetic course will outline the author's contemporary concepts in management of single tooth implants in the aesthetic zone with a view to achieving optimum long term aesthetics and stability. The topic is divided into 3 consecutive lectures designed to be taken as a series. The emphasis will be on the diagnosis, treatment planning and clinical management and an understanding and application of the biological factors that influence our treatment outcomes. The cases will range form simple to complex single tooth cases in both healed ridge and extraction situations following onto the management of multiple adjacent implants, large cases and full arch/full mouth restoration.<br><br>Lecture III:<br>This lecture will deal with multiple and adjacent tooth restoration in healed sites, in immediate replacement and in compromised cases

Anterior Esthetic Implant Treatment
LOD-032-00
Dr. Bernard Touati
This lecture will outline the concepts in the optimization of esthetic results on implants with a biological approach. The author will stress the need to clinically obtain long-lasting health and stability of the surrounding soft tissues which should be achieved predictably in each and every surgical and restorative implant treatment. The lecture will cover biologically designed abutments, transmucosal biocompatibility of restorative materials, submergence/emergence profiles, connections/disconnections of prosthetic parts, scanning or impression of abutments connected during 1st stage surgery, and explore treatment options from diagnostic models through immediate provisionals to the optimal definitive ceramic-based restorations. The cases will range from single to multiple implants, in complex or simple situations in healed or extraction sites.
Periodontal Plastic Surgery for Natural Teeth and Implants
LOD-026-00
Dr. Henry Takei
The last decades has witnessed tremendous emphasis on the esthetic aspect of dentistry. The gingival tissues which frames the dentition is an integral part of 'Dental Esthetics'. The clinician must have a good biologic and clinical understanding of both the teeth and gingival tissue in order to attain a healthy and esthetic result. Correcting gingival recession, root exposure, loss of papilla, which leads to poor gingival symmetry, is of major importance in achieving an esthetic outcome. In addition, the emphasis on implants in the esthetic zone requires sound surgical principles to achieve an optimal gingival emergence profile around an implant restoration.
The Art of The Smile-From Diagnosis to Individualized Multidisciplinary Treatment Plan
LOD-024-00
Dr. Rafi Romano
During the last decade aesthetic demands in general, and in dentistry in particular, have changed dramatically and patients are much more aware of the possibilities that are available for them to achieve better aesthetic results. Many dentists use the latest technology and the most recent innovations in dental materials, but ignore the fundamental factor of the treatment - the diagnosis. Adult treatment always involves a multidisciplinary approach which requires full cooperation of the dental team: prosthodontist-periodontist / dental surgeon-orthodontist. The orthodontist, who is usually the most skilled member of the team to analyze the facial complex, is responsible for providing a detailed diagnosis together with a few alternative treatment plans that are based not only on the dental findings, but also on the patient's request. The lecture will focus on the criteria for proper diagnosis and will provide the clinician the tools that will help him/her achieve a proper individualized treatment plan.
Esthetic Periodontal Surgery to Enhance Restorative Results

Dr. James Kohner
This course provides a maximum experience demonstrating the various principles and clinical procedures needed to understand Esthetic Crown Lengthening in all its variations. We cover indications, contraindications, and methods of managing surrounding bone.<br><br>Topics include: how to handle hard and soft tissues; proper surgical techniques; preservation of esthetics in the final tissue contours; and relocation of all structures that comprise the biologic width, namely: sulcus, junctional epithelium, connective tissue fibers, and bone.<br><br>The DVD program illustrates flap surgery, plus bone surgery designed to give a predictable result. It will give you information to consider doing some of these procedures yourself, or if you chose not to do so, you will have a better understanding of the procedures that you are requesting of a periodontal specialist.
Functional Crown Lengthening for More Predictable Restorative
LOD-020-01
Dr. James Kohner
This program provides a maximum experience covering the various principles and clinical procedures needed to perform crown lengthening in all its variations. We cover indications, contraindications, and methods of managing surrounding bone. Topics include: how to handle hard and soft tissues; proper surgical techniques; preservation of esthetics in the final tissue contours; and relocation of all structures that comprise the biologic width, namely: sulcus, junctional epithelium, connective tissue fibers, and bone. The program illustrates step by step methods for managing bone and soft tissue to allow for predictable impressions, and the avoiding of common restorative complications. Some typical complications include sore gums following crowns, sensitive teeth, plus crowns falling off or developing caries prematurely. Dentists who want to do some or most of their own crown extensions, or those who just want to know more about the subject, will be helped by this course. Crown extension is one of the most commonly required procedures in restorative dentistry, and is often under utilized.
Complications in Dentoalveolar Surgery
LOD-016-00
Dr. Earl Freymiller
Although the risks of complications associated with dentoalveolar surgery can oftentimes be greatly reduced, they cannot be completely eliminated. It is impossible to practice dentoalveolar surgery without experiencing the occasional complication. In the course of this lecture, the more common complications will be discussed in detail, as well as some less commonly encountered complications that have the potential for serious consequences. The lecture will specifically focus on ways to prevent or reduce the risk of various complications, how to recognize complications when they occur, and appropriate methods of treatment
