Narrow spaces, especially in the aesthetic zone, have always been challenging for implant placement. Anatomic hard tissue reconstruction before implant placement is a pre-requisite in case of deficiency. At the time of implant placement, surgical guides in the past were not adapted...

Correcting adverse soft tissue responses around crowns requires specific cervical contours coupled with surface smoothness and marginal fit.  This presentation will show how these morphologic principles have been used to correct adverse gingival reactions with crowns on natural tee...

This lecture will focus on the biologic criteria when it comes to restoring anterior implants using as an alternative a screw or cement retained restoration. The main problematic aspect for the cemented implant restoration will be discussed widely with different clinical examples...

Pink Esthetic Score assesses 7 soft tissue variables, it allows for reproducible assessments of peri-implant soft tissue around single tooth implants (Gehrke 2009). Different treatment modalities can be compared, flapless procedures show better outcomes than flapped procedures...

The use of NobelClincian digital diagnostics enables planning full arch dental implant treatments, such as the All-on-4® treatment concept, by beginning with the final prosthetic outcome in mind. This digital precision can reduce risk and improve predictability by allowing the clin...

There is a need for a critical dimension of soft tissue seal protecting the osseointegration (biological width) and a minimum width and thickness of keratinised mucosa surrounding an osseointegrated implant. The standard surgical interventions to treat these conditions need a...

Tight collaboration between clinicians and lab technicians is needed from the beginning, before treatment is executed. Digital tools facilitate the creation of cemented provisionals prior to surgery and are the ideal real-life prototypes for the following final restorations during...

This lecture will reveal an amazing treatment journey extending the boundaries of minimally invasive guided surgery and prosthetics. NobelClinician integrated digital workflow provides a systematic comprehensive approach to the esthetic zone and to the transition of terminal dentit...

Digital implant planning and placement is here to stay as it delivers more efficient care with consistently better outcomes, especially in the partially edentulous patient. Placing an implant that is “restorable” is no longer the aspiration. With today’s technology one can do...

What do we know about cement? How it flows, excessive amounts and hydraulic forces arising from cement can lead to both hard and soft tissue destruction. These concepts and furthermore, how should we mitigate the risks of using cement, will be discussed.

This presentation will provide an understanding of the decision-making process when it comes to component selection, osteotomy design and drilling protocols to be used, hard and soft tissue management as well as prosthetic design and its effect on long-term success of implant...

The cause(s) of bone loss around dental implants evoke many disparate views. Since the 6th European Workshop on Periodontics held in 2007, no update has been made to the original list leading to debate as to what may be relevant. This lecture will highlight some of these emerging...

A 33-year-old male patient's chief complaint was a missing lateral incisor which had been extracted several years earlier. A one-stage implant procedure simultaneous to connective tissue grafting and the use of a slim healing abutment was planned.

Implant supported full arch rehabilitation involves a multidisciplinary approach. Bone quality and quantity, esthetics, biomechanics and interocclusal space are among the many other factors that should be taken into consideration. This presentation will show the advantages of 3D...

The advent of CAD-CAM technology and its ever-growing optimization has rapidly caught the attention of the dental community for its potential applications. Specifically in the implant dentistry field, 3D imaging based diagnostics and treatment planning are becoming part of the...
