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.
