Lecture:    “Achieving Optimal Implant Aesthetics Using a Team Approach”

 

Speakers:  Drs. Ana Becil Giglio & Graz Giglio

 

When:  April 26, 2023, 6:30pm-9:00pm at the Pines Manor, 2085 Lincoln Hwy, Edison, NJ

 

Course Description:

The presentation will focus on optimizing the aesthetic results of dental implant therapy by using a collaborative approach between the surgeon, the restorative dentist, and the laboratory technician.  The three principal factors to consider in implant therapy are;

  1. Surgical parameters which include hard and soft tissue requirements, three-dimensional implant position, and implant size;
  2. Restorative parameters comprised of screw access, angle, abutment dis/reconnection, restorative contours, restorative material, screw vs. cement retention and occlusion; and
  3. Implant collar features including the collar surface and abutment-implant connection.

 

Treatment options, planning and sequencing of care to reduce the number of visits, will be presented in detail.  The surgical and restorative therapies will range from single implant solutions to complete arch rehabilitations.  Topics that will be discussed:  immediate implant placement and provisionalization; peri-implant complex considerations; aesthetic restorative implant components; and the use of digital dentistry in implant therapy.

 

Learning Objectives

  • Evaluate the patient’s aesthetic and functional needs
  • Formulate a suitable treatment plan, sequence, and coordinate treatment efficiently
  • Understand the peri-implant complex as it relates to prosthetic design
  • Improve patient comfort and care
