  • Why do patients want our treatment?

Speaker: Dr. Ryan Lewis

6. Quality standards in full-arch implant rehabilitation

Speaker: Dr. Alex Fibishenko

Learning objectives:

  • The ABCs of success in full-arch rehabilitations
  • Correlating the radiographic findings with clinical presentation to derive an appropriate surgical plan
  • Ways to assess and manage restorative space
  • How to use anatomic landmarks to ideally position the implants
  • Optimizing the stability of implants for immediate loading
  • Understanding zygoma implants, when to use them and how to position them safely and correctly
  • How to avoid complications in full-arch rehabilitation

Speaker: Dr. Alex Fibishenko

7. On 4 or on 6? Decision-making for immediate restoration in edentulous patients

Speaker: Dr. Waldemar Polido

Learning objectives:

  • Review the evolution of implant rehabilitation for the completely edentulous patient
  • Identify clinical situations that are favorable for immediacy in fully edentulous patients
  • Recognize factors that can influence primary stability in implant surgery
  • Review the scientific evidence and illustrate clinical indications for the use of 4 or 6 implants to rehabilitate a completely edentulous patient.

Speaker: Dr. Waldemar Polido

8. Science and new technologies for the full-arch treatment

Speaker: Dr. Leandro Soeiro Nunes

Learning objectives:

Speaker: Dr. Martin Schimmel

12. Always fixed?—Removable alternatives for edentulous patients

Speaker: Dr. Charlotte Stilwell

At the end of the webinar the participants should be able to:

  • Discuss indications for removable dentures together with their esthetic and functional advantages and disadvantages
  • Describe general design principles for partial and complete dentures
  • Outline indications for strategic use of implants in combination with removable dentures

Speaker: Dr. Charlotte Stilwell
