Tissue volume is key to achieving natural and esthetic treatment outcomes at implant sites. An adequate management of the provisional and definitive restorations can influence soft tissue shape and volume and enhance final results.

This lecture will focus on design features of...

Dr. Lau reviews success factors for immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone from a surgical perspective. He presents the BALS rule (biotype, angulation and position, level of bone and support of prosthesis) and walks the audience through the importance of each factor. A...

Dr. Keng Mun Wong reviews the clinical decision-making related to timing of implant placement in the esthetic zone. When is it a better option to preserve the tooth and when to extract? When can an implant be placed immediately, and when is it beneficial to decide for an immediate...

Highlighting with several patient cases and clinical videos, and underlining with literature data, Dr Pozzi explains the workflow principles and advantages when using guided surgery protocols and provides tips and tricks for optimizing soft tissue management and esthetic outcome...

Implant provisional restorations are the business card of the esthetic dentist. Postextraction tissue resorption and remodeling is inevitable. Dr. Fang explains that the tissue remodeling can be compensated by preserving the tissue through immediate implant placement and...

A 40-year-old male patient presented with agenesis of both upper lateral incisors and a Class III skeletal malocclusion. The treatment selected was: Orthodontic treatment, Implant placement #12 and #22 FDI  (#7 and #10 US).

Immediate tooth replacement offers the benefit that the hard and soft tissue architecture can be maintained. A change in labial contours is usually occuring, so the correct management of the facial contour is crucial in order to achieve an adequate esthetic result. Dr. Kan...

Based on over 20 years of clinical experience with immediate implant placement and restoration, Dr Gelb reviews treatment options and benefits for this protocol in various clinical indications, and gives a glimpse of these procedures from his daily clinical practice. Immediate...

How can we treat patients more effectively, and with a better outcome? Dr Wöhrle presents how to optimize treatment planning with the final prosthetic design in mind, minimize surgical and prosthetic errors, optimize patient communication, and explains an integrated, digital...

A 55-year-old male patient desired replacement of a previously extracted, missing lower canine #43 FDI (#27 US) which had not been previously restored. The treatment option was the placement of an implant with horizontal and vertical bone augmentation.

A 29-year-old male patient presented himself after a traumatic injury with nonspecific pain in the maxillary front area. Tooth #11 FDI (#8 US) showed only little discomforting response to percussion. the patient opted for an implant-based prosthodontic restoration.

The lecture discusses, how to effectively use 3D imaging in planning for the tooth to be immediately replaced and restored, if real time diagnosis and evaluation of treatment complexity provides immediate gratification for clinician and the patient. Dr Glauser also reviews how use...

Stable and healthy soft tissue conditions are important for the longevity of implant restorations and crucial for their esthetic success, especially in the esthetic region. Dr Rompen is reviewing aspects of the biological width and gingival biotypes and is discussing important...

Adequate patient assessment, diagnostics and treatment planning are crucial for long-term successful clinical results. Procedures should be outcome-driven, predictability means success. The lecturers present the integrated workflow with NobelClinician and its use in combination...

Bone volume is the site specific determining factor in deciding on the placement of implants. The volume must be sufficient for the implant replacing the original tooth. Tooth loss and subsequent bone changes may result in inadequate bone volume for placing implants. Objectives for...
