Course Description:

This course is designed to assist practitioners in creating and maintaining a successful implant program within their general dental practice. A discussion of the choices between conventional dentistry and implant dentistry to replace missing teeth will be explored. Particular attention will be given to learning how to build treatment plans based on patient evaluation, bone quality, prosthetic and material options and economics. This course will cover esthetic considerations in the anterior zone with single-tooth and multiple implant restorations. Additionally, options for short span fixed prostheses and removable prostheses will be discussed. Both cement and screw retained options will be discussed. 

During this program practitioners will understand:
  • Which cases are better suited for conventional or implant dentistry
  • The sequence for treatment planning and delivering predictable implant results
  • How to maximize the working relationship with periodontics, oral surgeons and orthodontists
  • Abutment design and selection
  • Prosthetic design and material selection. When to splint multiple units
  • When to use a screw-retained design versus a cement-retained design
