altMechanical Considerations for Implant Assisted
and Supported Prostheses in the Edentulous Patient

 
Treatment of the completely edentulous patient is one of the most challenging aspects of clinical dentistry. This presentation will take you through the steps necessary in diagnosing, treatment planning and predictably treating the edentulous patient with endosseous dental implants. Mechanical strategies, case design, attachment mechanisms, CAD/CAM bars and CT guided technology will be discussed in detail.

Course Objectives: Upon completion of this course, attendees will have a better understanding of:

  • Critical differences between implant assisted and supported designs.
  • How case design can significantly influence attachment retention.
  • Predictably managing the edentulous patient with simple mechanics.
  • Enhancing treatment outcomes through the use of new technologies.
  • An algorithm to help diagnose and treatment plan edentulous patients.
