Program Track: Implant Surgery and Prosthetic Rehabilitation
Patients present to us with problems in the anterior of their mouth that challenge our ability to not only achieve an esthetic result, but more importantly, to also be able to treat them at all. These soft and hard tissue deformities can be quite extensive and may have both vertical and horizontal components to them. Whether they are the result of an accident or from disease the question remains as to how does one treat them? The approach has to consider soft and hard tissue reconstruction that is coordinated with the prosthetic end result. These three speakers will demonstrate how they go about the reconstruction of these problems. Emphasis of this lecture will be to give proven methodologies while attempting to avoid potential complications.
Educational Objectives:
- Identify the graft selections for hard tissue and when each of these might be the material of choice.
- Discuss varying soft tissue treatment options for reconstruction
- Discuss how to implement digital workflow into these cases
