Andrew Dawood: Current challenges and state-of-the-art

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...

Oliver Hugo: Enriching our way of vision - NobelClinician software as a versatile tool for diagnosis and planning for partially edentulous cases.

The lecture reviews basics of X-ray diagnostics and CBCT scans and how the diagnostic capabilities of software based treatment planning can assist clinicians in their daily practice. CBCT scans cannot be done on a routine basis, however if a scan is done for implant treatment...

Sreenivas Koka: Assessment of bone quality relevant for marginal bone integrity ?

The lecture discusses in how far the assessment of marginal bone can be a suitable measure for bone integrity and implant oesseointegration. Dr Koka reviews aspects of definition of bone quality and the concept of osseo-sufficiency, and shows that we still are influenced by biases...

Yvan Fortin: Maximizing available bone in the edentulous maxilla with tilted and straight implants without restorative compromise

Placement of tilted and/or Zygomatic implants can offer the advantage of low invasive, graftless treatment options. Dr Fortin presents systematic pre-treatment evaluation for these solutions, discusses the benefits of tilted implants and explains placement options and techniques...

David Nisand: Short implants for limited bone volume

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

James Chow: Implant placement using the flapless surgical approach

Dental implants can be placed with flap or with a flapless procedure. Supported by clinical examples and systematic literature review and analysis, Dr Chow gives insight in flapless procedures, their benefits and how to overcome challenges. Flapless surgery is effective in both...

Patrick Palacci: Why use narrow implants ?

Replacement of missing lateral incisors is a routine indication for narrow implants. Dr Palacci suggests and discusses much broader use of narrow implants, e.g. in cases with narrow ridges, limited amount of bone or concavities. Use of narrow implants is a low invasive treatment...

Marco Esposito: Light activated disinfection in the case of peri-implantitis

Treatment objective of a chronic disinfection is to reduce bacterial load under a critical threshold. In the case of peri-implant infections the measures to reduce bacterial contamination can comprise e.g. surgical or non-surgical debridement and implant surface decontamination...

Massimo Simion: Long-term stability of regenerated bone around dental implants

Bone regeneration techniques have evolved over time. An initial development period in the late 1980 and early 1990 years, when basic techniques and principles had been established, was followed after 1996 by a consolidation period where efficacy of the applied techniques and...

Terry Walton: Herodontics - can it be justified in this age of implant dentistry

The lecture raises the discussion about overtreatment of natural teeth or alternatively also with implants. Dr Walton introduces his thoughts as a 'tale of caution'. Is ongoing treatment of severely structurally or periodontally compromised teeth - 'herodontics' - still justified...

Steven Eckert: Decision making on residual "healthy" teeth

Tooth loss is an important change in a patient's life. The decision to remove healthy or restorable teeth within a comprehensive treatment therefore requires a strategic approach and evaluation within the guidelines of medical/ dental ethics. Implant treatment is certainly a game...

Marco Esposito: immediate vs conventional loading: the scientific evidence

Based on a systematic review, supported by the Cochrane library issue 3 2013, the lecture discusses if predictable success rates with immediately loaded implants can be achieved. Dr Esposito compares immediate, early and conventional loading, occlusal vs non-occlusal loading and...
