This webinar with Dr. Ronald Jung will provide a comprehensive overview of the important steps needed to reduce risks from planning to tooth extraction and implant placement with bone regeneration.

The aim of the lecture is to provide a comprehensive overview of the important steps needed to reduce risks from planning to tooth extraction and implant placement with bone regeneration.
Based on clinical complications and wrong decisions the lecture will present how to make the right decisions for handling of extraction sockets, alveolar ridge preservation and soft and hard tissue regeneration in esthetic implant therapy. The lecture will focus on how to improve implant dentistry in order to reduce the invasiveness of the therapy and will give you a lot of practical information for your daily practice.

You have invested a lot of time and money in courses on how to safely and accurately select and then place an implant, the surgical drill kit, an Oral Surgery / Implant motor system, handpieces and possibly a Cone Beam Scanner – but what about a technology that assists in determining a safe time to start a restoration? Every Implant heals differently - Osstell can help! 

This webinar with Dr. Michael Glogauer will focus on the current gold standard for preserving alveolar bone at the time of extraction in order to optimize long-term implants therapy success.

This is Part 1 of a 2-part series with Dr. Glogauer. In order for implant therapy to be successful there is a need for adequate host bone in the proper position in three dimensions. However, the alveolar ridge is prone to resorption following extraction of teeth which results in inadequate bone volume and unfavorable alveolar ridge architecture which ultimately limits the successful placement of dental implants. Although immediate placement of dental implants is a successful form of therapy, it has been reported that implants do not adequately preserve the alveolar ridge. In this presentation we will focus on the current gold standard for preserving alveolar bone at the time of extraction in order to optimize long-term implants therapy success.

Learn about the increased momentum of using soft tissue grafting procedures at dental implant sites in the last 5 years with Dr. Daniel Thoma.

This webinar with Dr. Daniele Cardaropoli will focus on the concept of soft-tissue integration in implant dentistry. From immediate implant placement to ridge preservation, the use of connective tissue graft as well as the use of tridimensional collagen matrix, together with the description of a novel volume-stable cross-linked matrix will be assessed.

Why soft tissues are the key point when dealing with esthetics in implant dentistry? What is their biological role? Why pink esthetics, intended as the proper relationship between the implant fixture and the supported crown, is so important for the final outcome of the therapy? The concept of soft-tissue integration is the new challenge in implant dentistry. The knowledge about the dynamics of healing in post-extraction sites recommends to avoid a staged approach with spontaneous healing after tooth extraction. To achieve an optimal result clinicians should consider to preserve the anatomy of the ridge and the soft tissue contour. During this lecture different surgical and prosthetic approaches will be discussed for single tooth and multiple teeth rehabilitations. From immediate implant placement to ridge preservation, the use of connective tissue graft as well as the use of tridimensional collagen matrix, together with the description of a novel volume-stable cross-linked matrix will be assessed. Different sites, different protocols, one goal: predictability.
