Dr. Hashim explores the current developments in ceramic implants, sharing the benefits of ceramic implants.

A valuable reference for everyone involved in implant placement or implant restoration. 18 chapters from diagnosis to oral hygiene maintenance, 950+ photographs, over 40 videos, end of chapter self-assessment quizzes and 1,000+ scientific and literature references.

Sinus graft surgery can be performed as either a one-stage or a two-stage approach.

 

With the single-stage surgery, the bone grafting and implant placement are performed in one surgery with the graft placed first, followed by implant placement. In the case of a two-stage surge

The lecture focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of placing single implants in the posterior region at the time of tooth extraction, with emphasis on treatment and protocol decision and techniques to minimize number of treatment sessions. Review of scientific data for these...

The rehabilitation of the resorbed jaw remains a surgical and prosthetic challenge. This may involve the modification of the bone to allow for placement of dental implants, or alternatively the use of short implants. EAO consensus defines short implants as implants with an intrabon

The lecture summarizes planning, decision and design criteria for the prosthetic restoration. Dr Mun Wong reviews treatment options, selection of size and diameter of implants, number and distribution of implants, restoration design, and discusses aspects like splinting and force...

The lecture reviews and compares a data pool with almost 40.000 implants placed in an over 20 year time period. Dr Laureen Langer concludes that there are high and equivalent survival rates and no statistical differences between immediate and delayed placement, and that the...

The lecture highlights the importance of appropriate treatment planning to increase the predictability of long-term success and to optimize the result of implant treatment, and explains the difference between implant survival and implant success. Dr Salvesen reviews the important s

A 73-year-old female patient presented with extensive bone loss around the posterior tooth abutment, requiring extraction. Two crowns were used to replace the missing teeth and they were splinted to control the leverage due to the distal location of the implant in the molar crown.

The lecture discusses the need for treatment and the treatment options in multiple posterior missing teeth cases, as well as the barriers to such treatments. Treatment of missing teeth is not necessary in all cases, as long as there is adaptive capacity to maintain oral function...
