"A Predictable Stepwise Approach to Treatment Planning: Implant Restorations from Simple to Complex"   Dr. Keith Progebin            This presentation will highlight esthetic and restorative considerations in the treatment of comprehensive implant dentistry.  An interdisciplinary team approach in the treatment planning and implementation of the therapy will be used in order to achieve optimum esthetic results.  Techniques utilizing many dental implant systems and the latest concepts will be discussed and illustrated from a clinicians perspective.            Utilizing a lecture format, participants will learn current cutting-edge implant prosthetic concepts to maximize predictability and longevity.  An in-depth stepwise approach to implant surgical and restorative dentistry will be explored including sequencing of treatment, outlining provisonalization, impression making, delivery and re-care of patients for over 18 years.  Both simple and complex cases will be demonstrated.  At the conclusion of the course the participants will be able to identify the appropriate implant configuration in a site-specific manner.  In addition, they will learn to optimally utilize their prosthetic components.     Course Objectives ü    Evolution of endosseous implants ü    Diagnostic evaluation ü    Implant selection criteria and design considerations – restoratively driven ü    Treatment planning for ideal esthetics and longevity ü    Site development and ridge preservations techniques ü    Ceramic abutments and all ceramic restorations ü    Screw -vs- cement retained crowns ü    Platform switching for biologic width considerations ü    Management of complex rehabilitation ü    Complications over 18 years follow-up ü    The next generation of implant systems – Scalloped and Ankylos - Prevail ü    Delayed/Immediate load from single to full arch restorations            We would like to thank our sponsor 3i  for their support of Dr. Progebin's lecture!
