RESTORATIVE CONTROVERSIES IN IMPLANT DENTISTRY

CATEGORY 2 - 6 CE CREDITS

Course Outline:

Controversies exist because there is more than one accepted method available. We are challenged by choosing from so many methods--so why not use evidence-based dentistry, clinical success, and common sense to make the best decision among those options? Peri-implantitis associated with cemented restorations has opened the door to review when screw retained restorations are indicated and how to complete them. While it may be a recommendation to avoid cementing restorations, they remain an appropriate indication; therefore, a thorough understanding of how to properly complete this clinical procedure will be clearly outlined. We will also clarify why a custom abutment is always preferred to stock abutment shapes. Using evidence-based research, different restorative options of endo therapy, fixed bridges and implants will be compared for excellent decision-making. Conversion of a failing dentition to a full arch fixed bridge with implants is a treatment option that should be understood and considered. We will address that option and indications. Another alternative to complete dentures are overdentures; however, overdenture therapy is one of the most misunderstood aspects of implant dentistry. Participants will review how many implants are necessary and what locations are preferred compared to locations to be avoided at all costs. Overdenture attachments will also be reviewed to simplify the categories and clarify the selection process.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of the lecture, participants will:

understand the implications of immediate placement and immediate load;
learn number and location of implants for overdentures and attachment selection;
learn conversion of a failed dentition to an all-on-four (or six) fixed implant bridge;
review the longevity of various treatment options for teeth and implants; and
compare cemented versus screw retained crowns and bridges.
