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 presentation gives an in insight in 'corrective implant supported therapy on patients with downhill dentition with malocclusion' and how to reposition bone, gums and teeth. Dr Euwe reviews the treatment goals: enhance esthetics, establish class 1 occlusion, align and level arch

It is crucial the clinician has a fully versed understanding in the anatomy of the surgery site and in many instances this information is gained through imaging technologies. Dr Lam reviews the anatomical considerations and characteristics in the oral and maxilla-facial region...

The lecture gives insight in the demographic and oral health situation and preferred treatment options for edentulous patients in China. Highlighted by several patient cases, Dr Lin presents suitable treatment concepts such as implant supported overdentures on two or more implants...

The lecture compares the treatment options for a compromised tooth, endodontic treatment, fixed partial denture and extraction and implant placement, and discusses adjunctive procedures for each treatment as well as economical considerations. Dr White reviews the literature data...

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 covers low invasive treatment options of narrow mesio-distal spaces with small, 3.0 mm diameter implants. This implant type is indicated for single restorations in the esthetic zone in case of e.g. congenitally missing or traumatized upper laterals and lower incisors. H

The lecture gives insight in the use of short, narrow and zygomatic implants in cases with severe bone resorption and how using these technologies can avoid bone grafting and protracted treatment periods. Supported by impressive patient cases, Dr Dawood reviews a treatment solution...

The lecture describes the treatment options in edentulous cases with a focus on the upper jaw and structures the concepts in anatomical situations with major bone loss, moderate bone loss and no/minimal bone loss. Highlighting with clinical examples for each of these situations Dr...

The lecture reviews the criteria for successful soft tissue management in the esthetic zone. Correct three-dimensional implant position around 3 mm apical and 2 mm palatal of the final desired gingival margin on the restoration support the buccal plate and adequate stable bone...

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...

The lecture reviews decision criteria for material selection and design options in edentulous restorations. From a clinical and patient expectation standpoint, removable and fixed restorations provide comparable long-term outcome. Removable restorations can offer advantages, such...

The lecture gives insight in the decision criteria for prosthetic restoration planning in edentulous situations. Dr Glauser discusses extraoral examination parameters and the different levels of decision making such as evaluation of lip support, lip line and transition zone...

The lecture reviews the different loading concepts from a historical perspective till today and compares the clinical outcomes of delayed, early and immediate loading. Historically there was a tendency to rather seat too many implants to support immediate loading, which from nowada

The lecture gives an overview about the treatment options for edentulous patients from both a surgical and restorative perspective, including aspects of severely resorbed arches. Careful evaluation of the remaining bone substance is essential. Dr Vrielinck reviews the surgical...
