How can we treat patients more effectively, and with a better outcome? Dr Wöhrle presents how to optimize treatment planning with the final prosthetic design in mind, minimize surgical and prosthetic errors, optimize patient communication, and explains an integrated, digital...

The presentation reviews the measures and options for treatment of peri-implantitis. Dr Rosen discusses that the etiologies to periodontitis and peri-implantitis share a number of common analogies, and advocates comparable treatment approaches. The initiator isn't always plaque...

The presentation gives an insight in how scientific data and clinical input can be used to develop and design new products and enhance and optimize existing products, to make treatment more predictable and safe. Dr Holst highlights specifically that in dentistry we usually use...

A 58-year-old male patient presented loss of multiple teeth, need for replacement of his conventional, partial removable dentures with a fixed restoration by Dr. Jevgenij Travkin. The All-on-4® treatment concept with immediate implant placement was chosen.

A 68-year-old female patient wearing an implant-supported restoration with a very high mobility due to periimplantitis. The treatment consisted in placement of new implants and a new prosthesis to re-establish function, esthetics and provide overall comfort.

The lecture focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of placing single implants in the posterior region at the time of tooth extraction, with emphasis on treatment and protocol decision and techniques to minimize number of treatment sessions. Review of scientific data for these...

The lecture discusses the surgical and prosthetic objectives when using the All-on-4 treatment concept and reviews the clinical management of patients covering aspects of treatment planning, surgical procedures and both provisional and final implant retained restoration.

Dr Peng covers aspects of patient communication and patient acceptance for the implant-based rehabilitation of edentulous patients. A key point is to make the treatment and treatment plan easy to understand for the patient. Removing rather than saving questionnable teeth, limiting...
