Edmond Bedrossian: Management of complications in the graftless concept

The All-on-4 treatment concept has an impressive track record. Described by Branemark et al. in 1971, a 10 year follow up in 1975 reported no statistical differences in success rates between a 4 or 6 implant restoration. Dr Bedrossian presents a comprehensive recent literature...

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...

Videos

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

Videos

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...

Videos

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...
