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

The lecture gives insight in a new implant concept for immediate post-extraction implant placement in compromised situations showing considerable bone loss. Highlighting with clinical case examples of different complexity levels and supported by a multi-center study in 30 centers...

Understanding of well established biological principles is critical for low invasive and esthetic implant treatment procedures. Immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone is a treatment option performed on a regular basis. Dr Navarro explores immediate implant placement...

A 53-year-old female patient presented with the molar removed, preserving the buccal plate and there was sufficient bone to place an implant in an optimal restorative position. The tooth was extracted and an implant placed. 

The lecture gives insight in the tremendous change, advanced imaging techniques can provide to implant dentistry and dentistry in general. Dr Dawood presents examples where 3D visualization is able to reveal surprising diagnostic findings having a strong influence on treatment...

Focusing on the posterior mandible, Dr Moy reviews aspects of flap design and development, selection of implant design and dimensions, selection of the appropriate loading protocol and discusses the use of guided approach. Soft tissue management should maintain and enhance quality...

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...

The lecture explains the workflow of implant surgery with digital treatment planning and guided surgery, with the example of a clinical treatment case in the maxilla with multiple missing teeth. Dr Cantoni and Dr Polizzi explain the possibilities of interdisciplinary digital...

A 54-year-old male patient presented for rehabilitation of an extended maxillary edentulous space. The patient was rehabilitated without any grafting by using artificial pink gingiva and implants with bone expansion properties.
