Abstract

Achieving an optimal esthetic result in implant therapy is a challenge, and one of the most important aspects is the predictability of our final results. The different dental disciplines that are involved (oral surgery, periosurgery, prothodontics) should not be discussed separately. The only way to achieve a satisfactory result is to take into consideration all possible aspects at every step of the treatment (treatment planning, surgery, prosthodontics). Over this 2-day workshop, different treatment modalities and considerations for single-tooth replacement and partially edentulous situations will be explored. During the hands-on portions on implant placement with simultaneous GBR, topics such as ideal technique selection, types of incisions, use of membranes, graft material, and suturing techniques will be discussed.

Course Objectives

Understand the importance of interdisciplinary consideration for the enhanced predictability and esthetic success of results

Discover the factors that affect the esthetic success of implant therapy, including implant placement, quality of the hard and soft tissues at the implant site, prosthetic choices, and surgical techniques

Learn and practice surgical techniques for implant placement with simultaneous GBR
