A guided pathway to success for regenerative solutions must utilize basic biological principles of wound healing and the inflammatory response. Basic principles of biology must not be violated when attempting to replace tissue defects. These principles such as wound healing...

Appropriate implant positioning requires sufficient volume of bone in the desired position. However, bone volume is frequently lacking as a result of trauma or infectious diseases. Regardless of the numerous surgical techniques described in the literature, which aim at regenerating...

There is a need for a critical dimension of soft tissue seal protecting the osseointegration (biological width) and a minimum width and thickness of keratinised mucosa surrounding an osseointegrated implant. The standard surgical interventions to treat these conditions need a...

Current multidisciplinary management of both simple and complex clinical scenarios has evolved significantly in recent years. The changes in this evolution have been aimed at achieving more predictable as well as longer lasting results, without excluding interesting aspects such as...

In order to be able to design a truly patient centered treatment plan a variety of crucial information on the individual patient needs to be gathered. Using the information from the NobelClinician system, different surgical templates become available to assist the implantologist in...

This presentation aims to examine how digital planning is extremely valuable for the replacement of single units in the esthetic zone aggregating precision and predictability. The threedimensional images of NobelClinician allow the surgeon to evaluate the site at every possible...

Tight collaboration between clinicians and lab technicians is needed from the beginning, before treatment is executed. Digital tools facilitate the creation of cemented provisionals prior to surgery and are the ideal real-life prototypes for the following final restorations during...

This lecture will reveal an amazing treatment journey extending the boundaries of minimally invasive guided surgery and prosthetics. NobelClinician integrated digital workflow provides a systematic comprehensive approach to the esthetic zone and to the transition of terminal dentit...

Digital implant planning and placement is here to stay as it delivers more efficient care with consistently better outcomes, especially in the partially edentulous patient. Placing an implant that is “restorable” is no longer the aspiration. With today’s technology one can do...

What is the accuracy of guided surgery? How accurate is free hand surgery? These questions tend to underestimate the importance of the human factor in the equation. Although today’s systems build on highly accurate 3D information, indication setting, training, technique and skill...

A cone beam is indeed not just a cone beam…Despite guidelines, clinicians often have their own reality when it comes to CBCT usage in implantology. Unlike conventional 2D modalities, the numerous exposure parameters can drastically influence dose and image quality. In fact, the...

Many clinical follow-up studies are performed to report various complications and failures that can be observed for different techniques or patient groups. These studies can be designed in different ways which has an impact on the results that are revealed. This presentation will...

The lecture will highlight results generated with newly developed sampling and analytical platforms, including studies with systematic alterations of implant surface properties, morphological, ultrastructural, biomechanical and genomic/proteomic techniques. The hypothesis is that...

Guided bone regeneration as a concept and in practice has been prevalent for many years and has yielded scientific evidence useful to assist the clinician in choosing the right technique for the right clinical situation. In this presentation, basic principles of guided bone...

What do we know about cement? How it flows, excessive amounts and hydraulic forces arising from cement can lead to both hard and soft tissue destruction. These concepts and furthermore, how should we mitigate the risks of using cement, will be discussed.
