Advanced Immediate implantation and immediate loading in the aesthetic zone.
Prof. Puria Parvini’s speech will focus on the importance of immediate implantation, immediate tissue management, and immediate loading in dental implantology.
Taking place in Omega 1 room
Lecture description:
Advanced Immediate implantation and immediate loading in the aesthetic zone.
Systematic planning prepares you for a case requiring) an immediate implant with immediate loading.
The main advantages of immediate implant placement are that they save time and there are fewer patient visits.
During implant surgery, the dentist has to make a lot of decisions that are based on scientific knowledge and his own experience and personal skills.
There are numerous indications for tooth replacement with an immediate implant when an adequate amount of bone and soft tissue are available to support it.
Teeth need to be removed atraumatically to preserve the maximum amount of bone before immediate implant placement.
Placement of immediate implants is a predictable procedure and attention to detail is essential to ensure success when placing these implants. There is the possibility to improve the pink esthetic zone with immediate hard and soft tissue augmentation.
The harvesting of CTG from the palate for soft tissue management can improve the result in the aesthetic zone.
This lecture will include hints and tips on all aspects of immediate implantation, hard and soft tissue management with CTGs, which you can take back to your practice.
Indications as well as the advantages and disadvantages of technique will be discussed.

Lecture description:
Conometric fixed prosthesis & proper emergence profile for implants and teeth health
How can we get and keep the soft peri-implant tissues healthy ?
I am not talking about ideal situations, such as patients with flawless hygiene routines and so on.
The actual issue I’d like to address, is how can we get them for every clinical case.
The easiest ways to get to these results would be , conometric fixed retention between abutment and prosthesis. Conometric fixed retention is a third way, parallel to the cemented or screwed fixed prosthesis which would allow us to get fixed retention without using any screws or cement.

Full Mouth Treatment Planning begins with Analysis - how the digital workflow helps with scenario planning, patient communication and clinical execution of implant/restorative cases.
In this presentation, Dr. Halley will share how she uses a systematic approach to information gathering, analysis and structured patient communication to diagnose and plan full mouth scenarios for patients.
This leads to more predictable clinical outcomes and an increase of acceptance for complex care from patients including consent for complex implant/restorative scenarios.
Taking place in Omega 1 room
Delegates will understand how using systematic digital gathering of information and planning will help to communicate with patients their overall risk status and how this may positively impact expectations and outcomes.
