Description:
As dentists guiding our patients, we are often faced with restorative decisions that appear to be dilemmas: when to restore, extract and replace? When we choose to replace a tooth, do we choose implants or pontics? Which alternative offers an esthetic advantage, a functional advantage or cost advantage? This course will demonstrate how to surgically manage the soft tissue around a natural tooth, pontic, single implant, and two implants side by side. It will demonstrate soft tissue grooming with provisionals and impression making for the definitive restoration and cover managing soft tissue and biologic width around the BioHorizon implants utilizing the Laser-Lok® microchannels compared to flat top implants, scalloped implants or platform switching. This course includes a guided hands-on portion highlighting the BioHorizon Implant System.
Course Objectives:
-Communicate with patients when making difficult restorative choices
-Determine if a natural tooth may be predictably restored
-Surgically manage soft tissue around natural teeth, pontics, and implants
-Understand how biologic width is affected by implant design
-Become familiar with the BioHorizon implant system
