Successful implant reconstruction is dependent upon several factors acting in concert. These include proper pre-surgical diagnosis and treatment planning, appreciation of correct vertical dimension and occlusal control, pre-surgical prosthetic fabrication of the restorative components, surgical guidance to insure suitable fixation and immobility of the implant. The diagnostic phase is the foundation for successful implementation.
The advent of new Cone Beam CT (CBCT) scan technology, and especially the i-CAT machine, has been a major factor in removing many of the barriers associated with the use of CT scan imaging, making it a simple for clinicians to almost instantly gain the most relevant information for the patient's treatment and benefit.
This presentation will cover concepts regarding the diagnostic power of the technology, for appreciating unanticipated pathology, impacted teeth, bone grafting applications, and implant evaluation and placement. Dr. Ganz's "Triangle of Bone" TM concept will be illustrated as an important decision-making tool, correctly defining available anatomy as an aid in locating implant and/or bone graft receptor sites. Additionally, state-of-the art tools will be presented for improved diagnosis, and treatment planning to achieve true restoratively driven implant dentistry.
Clinicians attending this program will gain an in depth understanding of this exciting technology, and how it will impact the future of dentistry for years to come.
