A patient with multiple maxilla recessions, all attributable to an incongruous brushing complaining of an aesthetic deficit and radicular sensitivity. Composite reconstructions were performed in surgical procedures prior to surgery and collagen membrane.
Giacomo Fabbri: New anodized surfaces designed for tissue integration at every level
Dr. Fabbri discusses the benefits of the new TiUltra and Xeal. He explains the concept of mucointegration and the clinical benefits it offers. This idea of combining the benefits of the On1 abutment with the new surface allows undisturbed soft tissue healing with mucointegration.
Two Stage Implant Placement for a Failing Central Incisor with Ankylosis to Labial Bone Plate.
A 45-year-old female patient who was referred re-failing post crown in tooth #21 FDI (#9 US), multiple failed veneers, generalized tooth wear and loss of OVD. The treatment involved the extraction of the root and immediate implant placement with a Connective Tissue Graft.
Restoration of a ‘Failing’ Tooth with an Implant in the Aesthetic Zone
A 41-year-old female patient with a failing post crown in tooth #21 FDI (#9 US) with root fracture and infection, the treatment involved implant placement with GBR and soft tissue augmentation.
Multi-disciplinary rehabilitation of an agenesic upper lateral incisor
A 53-year-old female patient with #22 FDI (#10 US), which was endodontically treated and discolored, was esthetically unpleasing. The tooth was hopeless due to root fracture. A treatment plan was formulated to replace the non-vital tooth with an implant.
France Lambert & Eric Rompen: Proper soft tissue handling to improve the outcome of implant restorations
Unstable soft tissue seal at implants favors an inflammatory reaction that can lead to facial recession, pocket formation and loss of bone support. The more stable and tight the soft tissue seal, the more predictable the outcome of implant rehabilitation. A major criterion influenc
Tidu Mankoo: The restoration of failing teeth in the aesthetic zone. Surgical and prosthetic keys to success
This presentation will review the contemporary surgical and prosthetic concepts in management of implants in the aesthetic zone with a view to achieving optimum long term esthetics and stability. The outcomes depend on the clinical management and an understanding and application of...
Inaki Gamborena: Screw- or cement-retained restorations. A biologic point of view.
This lecture will focus on the biologic criteria when it comes to restoring anterior implants using as an alternative a screw or cement retained restoration. The main problematic aspect for the cemented implant restoration will be discussed widely with different clinical examples...
Joseph Kan: Anterior immediate single tooth replacement. Lessons learned.
Achieving anterior implant esthetics is a challenging procedure. Understanding the biological and physiological limitations of the soft and hard tissues will facilitate predictability in simple to complex esthetic situations. This presentation will reflect on the past and current,
The peri-implant mucosa consists of an externally located keratinized oral epithelium, which is connected to the peri-implant junctional epithelium facing the abutment. The latter extends approximately 2 mm apical to the...
Paul Rosen: Successful treatment of peri-implantitis: advisability and predictability
The presentation reviews the measures and options for treatment of peri-implantitis. Dr Rosen discusses that the etiologies to periodontitis and peri-implantitis share a number of common analogies, and advocates comparable treatment approaches. The initiator isn't always plaque...
Laureen Langer: Thirty years of osseointegration in private practice - what have we learned
In this lecture, Dr Langer reviews implant dentistry over a 30 years time frame with almost 40.000 implants placed, and underlining with comprehensive literature support, with a focus on the treatment objectves predictability, beauty and longevity. The lecture discusses aspects of...
Oded Bahat: The relationship between esthetics, continuous craniofacial growth and implant reconstruction in adults - observations, consequences and surgical solutions
In this lecture Dr Bahat discusses facial esthetics, craniofacial ageing, its influence on implant placement and how these parameters interact. Craniofacial changes continue throughout adult life, and vary between genders, and individually between patients. Dr Bahat is reviewing...
Bertil Friberg: The Brånemark Clinic - current research and clinical implications
Based on extensive literature review and clinical resarch at the Gothenburg Brånemark clinic over 3 decades, Dr Friberg is reviewing causes for bone loss in implant treatment, in single, partial and edentulous situations, and discussing the influence of traumatized and ankylotic...
