CE7: Guided Full-Arch Immediate Implant Reconstruction: 2017 Simplified Guided Immediate Load Full-Arch Reconstruction
2:30–5 p.m. Program Track: Imaging and Emerging Technologies Moderator: Will Akin Speaker: Michael A. Pikos
This clinically-based presentation will focus on the integration of facially-driven, implant-supported prosthetics, surgical and laboratory disciplines, combined with CBCT technology to provide a seamless approach for totally guided full-arch and full-mouth immediate implant reconstruction for the terminal dentition and edentulous patient. This protocol includes placement of a virtually created, prefabricated, computer- guided nano-ceramic prosthesis for both edentulous and dentate arches. The complete workflow from diagnostics to virtual workup with proof of concept for this fully guided approach will be presented along with cases that feature indications and overall procedural sequence.
Educational Objectives:
• Evaluate the indications and protocol for facially-driven, computer-guided full-arch and full-mouth immediate placement with a prefabricated monolithic acrylic bar supported provisional.
• Compare the advantages of this protocol over All-on-4® for full-arch and full-mouth implant reconstruction.
• Review the limitations of this totally guided surgical and prosthetic protocol.
CE8: Saving Hopeless Teeth 2:30–5 p.m. Program Track: Regeneration/Tissue Engineering Moderator: Barry D. Wagenberg
Speakers: Pierpaolo Cortellini, Stuart A. Feldman, and Paul S. Rosen
It should be the goal of every therapist to save the natural dentition when possible. Procedures are available today that alter the definition of what can be called “hopeless teeth.” These three esteemed clinicians will present decision trees to help to make the determination whether a previously designated hopeless tooth can be salvaged. Careful patient selection and application of modern concepts of “biologically driven” regenerative therapy along with a strict periodontal supportive care program are the keys to success. Today, it is even difficult to set a limit to the regenerative potential of periodontally compromised teeth.
Educational Objectives:
• Identify how lesion morphology effects the choice of biologic materials available.
• Explain how sequence of therapy and occlusion play a role in regenerative success.
• Discuss the application of “biologically driven” periodontal therapy.
CE9: Contemporary Furcation Management 2:30–5 p.m.
Program Track: Treatment of Inflammatory Periodontal Diseases
Moderator: Vanchit John
Speakers: Paul A. Fugazzotto, Pamela K. McClain, and Robert Schallhorn
Multi-rooted teeth exhibiting bone loss present one of the most challenging periodontal defects to treat. Although dental implants have expanded treatment options, retention of the natural dentition, when feasible, remains an ideal goal in dentistry. Appropriate treatment of periodontally involved furcations is a cornerstone of comprehensive periodontal therapy. Many treatment modalities can slow the progression of bone loss in furcations. Current information available on both short-term and long-term outcomes of the techniques for managing the various categories of furcation defects will be discussed with emphasis on Class II and Class III mandibular and maxillary molars. In addition, the role of regenerative therapy to reverse the disease process will be discussed. Finally, the role of resective therapy in treatment of furcation involvements through the assessment of successes and failures over a period of more than 30 years will be reviewed.
Educational Objectives:
• Critique short- and long-term treatment outcomes for current furcation treatment approaches.
• Discuss the rationale for employing combined regenerative techniques for management of Class II and potentially of Class III selective furcation defects.
• List the key defect characteristics that are critical for regeneration in furcations.
• Learn a simplified furcation classification system which relates directly to specific treatment options combined with the technical aspects of resective furcation therapy and the role of resective therapy in periodontal regeneration in furcation defects.
