A complete overview of the visualized anatomy with CT Scans coupled with advanced computerized planning in the virtual placement of implants in ideal bone, and the fabrication of the bioengineered guided templates will give the clinician confidence in placing and restoring implant cases.

There will be a detailed presentation on the preparation and fabrication of radiographic/surgical guides as well as the drilling sequences for single tooth and short span edentulous segments with intact sights not requiring bone-grafting procedures. Implant placement for the fully edentulous lower jaw utilizing the All-on-4 fixed hybrid bridge and over-denture applications will be covered. A comprehensive restorative hands-on exercise will follow each implant placement. Emphasis will be placed on outsourcing aspects of the implant treatment – from design to fabrication of all prosthetic components – to a trusted partner without investing thousands of dollars in software and hardware to integrate these techniques into your practice.
