The 1-Piece Small Diameter Implant
The 1-piece 3.0 small diameter implant (Zimmer) had become a useful implant alternative for minimal bony dimensions. This presentation focuses on the incorporation of the 3.0 1-piece implant into your practice with emphasis on the maxillary lateral incisor and mandibular incisor area. Also, a posterior indication is presented for utilization of this 1-piece implant. The surgical and prosthetic protocols are discussed via multiple case presentations. The program is designed for surgeons and restorative dentists. Journal of Oral Implantology, 2011, XXXVII (special issue); 156-164.

Immediate Implant Placement: Indications, Protocols, Risks and Limitations
Immediate Implant placement have demonstrated similar survival rates when compared to other approaches. Moreover, immediate placement has exhibited less facial bone loss and gingival recession. Most important to the patient is the elimination of a removable prosthesis during the integrative period. This presentation is designed to discuss the indications as well as the surgical and prosthetic protocols for immediate implant placement. Risks, limitations and potential complications will be illustrated in order for the clinician to develop a thought provoking treatment plan.

Fixed Detachable Prosthesis
“The Full Arch Solution”
As the program ages worldwide, individuals with hopeless teeth or who are completely edentulous will increase. The fixed detachable prosthesis is a predictable implant approach to manage this group of patients. Scientific research has demonstrated high success rates over the long term. The program will address the science, areas of discussion, protocols and exhibit the clinical aspects through case reports.
After the participants complete the webinar they will:
- Understand the science that supports the fixed detachable prosthesis
- Comprehend the areas of discussion and how it relates to clinical protocols
- Learn the protocols for “all on X” to successfully perform the procedure
- Develop an understanding of patient management through case presentations
The Scope of Implant Dentistry
“A Clinical Perspective”
This presentation illustrates various prosthetic approaches that exist within the discipline of Implant dentistry. Partially and fully edentulous treatment planning is presented with fixed and removable prosthetic options. Cased based learning with didactic information strengthens the concepts.
This presentation is ideal for a referral based surgical practice to grow implant case development.
Thought Provoking Treatment Planning for The Edentulous Patient :
“The Implant Approach”
Research indicates a growing population of edentulous patients extending into the year 2020. Dental implants have become a predictable discipline of dentistry and improve the quality of life for thousands of patients. Implant dentistry modalities are a viable treatment approach to enhance mastication comfort, esthetics and confidence. Predictable outcomes are achieved with thought-provoking treatment plans including prosthetic designs based on bone quality and quantity, and biomechanics. The program will focus on evidence-based treatment planning to enhance long-term success while meeting patient expectations.
Mini Dental Implants: Treatments Planning and Proven Protocols for Long Term Success
Minimally invasive procedures in the field of healthcare including dentistry continue to evolve. Mini-dental implants parallel this trend with regards to surgical protocols and loading considerations. The success of mini implants relies on the understanding of current research, surgical and prosthetic protocols and biomechanical loading principles.
