The Single Unit Implant vs.. the 3-Unit Bridge & Cement vs Screw-Retained (HANDS-ON COURSE)

November 8, 2019

As clinicians, it is your duty to educate your patients on the benefits of a single implant vs a bridge. If the patient has no preference, it is your decision to determine if the crown will be cemented or screw retained. These informed decisions ensure successful treatment planning and provide the desired outcome for your patients.

At the conclusion of this program, each participant should be able to:

• Describe the challenges with transitioning patients from teeth to dental implants
• Identify patients that are candidates for immediate full-arch loading of dental implants
• List the restorative steps associated with immediate occlusal loading protocols
• Explain the clinical differences with immediate occlusal loading in the maxilla/mandible
• Describe the restorative procedures associated with full-arch immediate occlusal load case
