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 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...

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...

Modern digital technologies allow to efficiently connect the clinical treatment team, surgeons, restorative dentists, radiologists, dental technician and dental staff, in order to develop and align medical imaging and treatment planning. The lecture leads through a journey of the...

Dr Staas and Michiel Wouters discuss the team approach between lab and clinician from an esthetic, biological, predictability and reliability perspective. They review material selection and restoration design aspects, such as CAD/CAM and Zirpress techniques, emergence profile...

3D planning approach is critical for using available bone. Within the current digital workflow for guided surgery the planned prosthesis is translated into a radiographic guide. Dr Dawood raises the question how precise the guided surgery approach can be within this workflow, and...

Patients request not only functional restorations, but also esthetic rehabilitation, improvement of appearance, smile and self-esteem. To support this objective, modern digital planning systems combine guided surgery assistance with appropriate and comprehensive diagnostic and...

The lecture discusses parameters for esthetic reconstruction on multiple implants in the anterior maxilla. Presenting a clinical case with 6 anterior implants from canine to canine, Dr Fradeani gives insight in the parameters defining the esthetic result from both a soft tissue and...

A 28-year-old female patient was referred by an endodontist. The root showed signs of resorption and a long-term survival was questionable. The tooth had to be removed and an immediate implant with an adjacent muco-gingival surgery was placed. 

The All-on-4® treatment concept can be combined with a guided surgical protocol. Looking back on experiences with these techniques since 2005, Dr Lopes reviews the advantages of these protocols for patient and surgeon, such as comfort, reduced surgery time and increased...

The lecture reviews the treatment of a failed bridge restoration supported by implants and natural teeth. Dr Gamborena and L Rutten explain the treatment sequence and the cooperation between the clinic and the dental lab. The lecture discusses patient motivation, treatment options...

The presentation explains the treatment approach and treatment steps in a complex unilateral case with two fractured upper central and lateral teeth. Dr van Dooren reviews the diagnostic tools and highlights the additional insights patient videos can provide e.g. regarding the...

A 72-year-old female patient was affected by the poor fit of her existing mandibular complete denture, especially the constant movement while chewing. The final treatment included a new maxillary complete denture and a mandibular implant fixed complete denture. 

The presentation gives a close look at a systematic approach, how to plan implant restorations step by step, from an esthetic perspective. It is an esthetic-occlusal system and applied in a way that the interdisciplinary team has a common ground. Supported by several clinical...
