Frameworks are veneered with veneering materials, to design the esthetics and shape of the definitive restoration. Framework material options for acrylic veneering include titanium, (CrCo) Cobalt - Chrome and precious alloys...
Frameworks can be made from titanium, zirconia, precious alloys and Co-Cr base alloys and can be cement-retained or screw-retained. With minimal bone resorption, a ceramo-metal restoration is preferable to accommodate interarch...
Egon Euwe: The soft tissue challenge: esthetics, health and stability
The lecture discusses the principles for tissue preservation in implant restoration and highlights their importance for the esthetic result. The goal is to create healthy and stable soft tissue framing around the implant and restoration. Dr Euwe presents single implant replacement...
Single implant crown adjacent to metal-ceramic crowns
A 47-year-old female patient referred by her periodontist who was not satisfied with her gingival health. Metal-ceramic crowns with ceramic margins on the natural teeth along with placement of a custom abutment and cementation of a metal-ceramic crown on the implant were chosen.
Metal-ceramic post & core and crown for maxillary central incisor
A 42-year-old male patient presented with a loose post and crown on the maxillary right central incisor. He wanted a better color and shape without dark gingiva.
A 39-year-old female patient presented with the extensive incisal wear of the maxillary incisors due to an occlusal habit that exposed large areas of dentin created some sensitivity and produced short teeth that the patient did not like.
Christian Coachman: CAD/CAM material selection for esthetic restorations from a restorative and soft tissue perspective
The lecture presents esthetic reconstruction principles in the anterior maxilla and discusses the challenge to integrate white and pink esthetics - soft tissue and tooth restoration. Dr Coachman presents a clinical case with an implant based crown restoration on an upper central...
Patrick Rutten: Impact of products and restorative protocols on the end result - single and partial restorations
The lecture discusses parameters influencing the esthetic result of an implant based restoration from the perspective of the dental technician. Presenting clinical cases in the esthetic zone, Patrick Rutten gives insights in material selection highlighting the advantages of CAD/CAM...
