Course Objective

This course is developed to enable the clinician to acquire the knowledge and confidence to perform advanced bone grafting procedures combined with implant placement and restoration in the maxilla & mandible.

The program will cover surgical anatomy, pre & post surgical considerations, key steps to performing successful bone grafting and complex implant placement. The attendees will also perform CT guided implant placement, using treatment planning software & surgical guides, and restoration of single and multiple dental implants.

Attendees will evaluate scans using implant treatment planning software. Evaluation of the sinus will include the presence of abnormal anatomy, height, and width. The inferior alveolar nerve will also be identified and placed into the 3 dimensional analysis. Implants will be placed within the software.

CT guided implant surgery offers precise transfer of planned implant position into the surgical field. Overall, guided implant surgery may reduce surgical time, morbidity, and possibly allow flapless surgery. This course will take the attendee from the CT planning software stage through ordering the guide stent and ultimately placing implants with the surgical guide.

A review of implant prosthetics and material selection will improve the attendees’ ability to plan and execute complex reconstruction. Immediate implant placement with immediate provisionalization and final impressions, CT guided mandibular hybrid surgery & prosthetics and conversion of a full denture to a hybrid will be performed on models and cadavers.

By having a thorough understanding of these advanced implant procedures, the clinician should be able to improve their success of implant supported prosthetics, as well as increasing esthetic results for patients. Each participant will learn in a unique step-by-step fashion, followed by performing each of these procedures on freshly frozen cadavers and models under the direct supervision of the course faculty.

After the course the clinician will have a comprehensive manual and a model to take back to their office and reference at any time.

Learning Objectives

  5. Understand how to use fabricate radiographic guides for computed tomography.
  6. Understand how to use 3 dimensional implant treatment planning software.
  7. Understand how to use CT generated surgical guides for implant placement.
  8. Understand immediate implant placement in conjunction with socket & sinus grafting.
  9. Understand fabrication of immediate provisionals on dental implants for single and multiple implants.
