Optimal Prosthetic Planning - Esthetic & Function

The Role of Cements in Dental Implant Restorations

LOD-284-00

Dr. Chandur Wadhwani

43 min

English

Restoring dental implants can be extremely challenging. It is imperative to understand available options related to crown retention, confirmation of fit of components and maintenance of implant restorations over time. The AAP, AAO, and the AARD have all stated that excess cement often leads to peri-implant disease and is considered a major risk factor for implant longevity. While many techniques and products have been developed specifically for cement-retained implant restorations, some are potentially detrimental to implants. Dentists are not always fully aware of the issues and implications of using inappropriate materials or methods.<br /> <br /> This presentation will explore the problems and challenges encountered by the restorative dentist, and to formulate clinical guidelines based on current research.<br /> <br /> <strong>Learning Objectives:</strong><br /> Understand the science behind the best practice of implant restoration.<br /> Understand what we need from implant cements, and how formulate a hierarchy of cement selection.<br /> How to best to detect excess cement and prevent failures.<br /> How to develop an all-encompassing cementation protocol for implant restorations.<br /> How to decide upon cemented versus screw-retained prostheses in various clinical situations.<br /> How to assess truly healthy peri-implant soft tissues.<br />

Soft Tissue Grafting for Implant Complications in the Esthetic Zone (CHINESE LANGUAGE ONLY)

LOD-276-00

Dr. Paul Lin

128 min

Chinese

In this lecture, discover how to utilize Soft Tissue Grafting for correcting implant complications. Utilize 5 pink dilemmas to analyze the implant complications in the esthetic zone. Determine what the problem is: Is it a buccal concavity problem? Marginal recession? Papilla loss? Asymmetry? Or is it a color & texture problem? Utilize several soft tissue techniques: free gingival graft; connective tissue graft; modified roll technique; and modified VIP-CT technique. For the purposes of correction Dr. Lin breaks down implant complications into 7 categories. The steps for managing implant complications are similar to periodontal therapy. With proper case selection, patient selection, and procedure selection you will be able to achieve management of complications by soft tissue in a predictable way.

Severe Gingival Recession Treatment with Connective Tissue Grafts

LOD-274-00

Dr. Nelson Carranza

58 min

Gingival recessions are probably one of the most frustrating challenges that young surgeons and periodontists confront everyday. Gingival recessions <br /><br />are not all the same, and require different approaches, depending on their characteristics. In this lecture, Dr. Carranza will share with you the way <br /><br />to approach the treatment of severe gingival recession, with gingival connected tissue graphs. <br /><br />Throughout this lecture, he will explain technical aspects that hopefully will help you decide which technique suits you better. He will also present a <br /><br />short video with technical details about one of the techniques he will use when analyzing the double papilla graft technique.

Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures (Part 4 of 4)

LOD-269-00

Dr. Oswaldo Scopin de Andrade

62 min

In Part 4 of his 4 part series on Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures, Dr. Oswaldo Scopin will present a step-by-step case report of a full mouth reconstruction based on the same procedure that is typically done for single restorations.<br /><br />He will discuss the importance of the lab and will demonstrate clinical techniques for the best possible conservative approach for this sort of rehabilitation. When do we need to prep? When do we not need to prep?<br /><br />Dr. Scopin will show some cases where prepping the tooth is needed and you have pre-existing composite. He will discuss thin veneers, and what is important to understand when selecting a prep or no prep design for laminated veneers. <br /><br />Dr. Scopin will close with a case report showing a patient who needs to increase the vertical dimension only to the bonded restoration.

Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures (Part 3 of 4)

LOD-268-00

Dr. Oswaldo Scopin de Andrade

51 min

In Part 3 of his 4 part series on Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures, Dr. Oswaldo Scopin will present how you can protect dentin. He will discuss the resin coating technique which he has used for over 10 years with great results. Dr Scopin will show how you can protect dentin with just a regular dentin adhesive system. He will demonstrate step-by-step how you can do this in several different cases. In the last case of this presentation, Dr Scopin will show how to lute, and how to bond zirconia over dentin.

Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures (Part 2 of 4)

LOD-267-00

Dr. Oswaldo Scopin de Andrade

50 min

In Part 2 of his 4 part series on Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures, Dr. Oswaldo Scopin will present his process of working with resin cement, and how to do bonding to enamel which is very important. It is important to understand the structure. It is important to select the best strategy to bond or to lute ceramic restorations over each type of tooth structure. Dr Scopin will show a step by step video sequence in how to do bonding procedure and how to do a very precise bonding procedure for a thin veneer case.

Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures (Part 1 of 4)

LOD-266-00

Dr. Oswaldo Scopin de Andrade

57 min

English

In Part 1 of this 4 part series on Adhesive & Esthetic Dentistry - Minimally Invasive Procedures, Dr. Oswaldo Scopin will start with a short introduction about this concept which is essential for clinical longevity. He will present his findings from a study he published showing results from a long-term analysis of laminate veneers.<br /><br />Dr Scopin will explain the important steps to achieve the 'perfect' margin of a restoration. How do you continue this year after year? What is important to maintain clinical control? How do we achieve the 'perfect' marginal adaptation? Do we change the preparation? Do we change the ceramic? Do we try to preserve more tooth structure? Each of these questions will be addressed, all with a focus on minimally invasive restorative dentistry.
