FCE4: Contemporary Materials and Techniques for Edentulous Ridge Augmentation
10:45 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. Tissue Engineering and Hard Tissue Reconstruction
Moderators: Paulo M. Camargo and Hiroyasu Shimizu Speakers: Bradley McAllister and Yasuko Nemoto
Augmentation of the alveolar bone is often necessary to prepare a site for implant placement. There are several modalities of osteo-conductive materials and techniques for edentulous ridge augmentation, including various types of bone grafts and different membranes for guided tissue regeneration. More recent developments added the possibility to incorporate osteo-inductive proteins and cell preparations to the surgical sites. Each one of these materials and techniques can be used alone or in combination with others, and has its own properties, handling characteristics, and specific indications.
This presentation will focus on examining the mechanisms of action and clinical indications for the use of materials intended to be used in the augmentation of the edentulous alveolar ridge, and provide details about the surgical execution of such procedures in order to increase success and predictability. The presentation will be rich in clinical cases and supported by scientific evidence.
Educational Objectives:
• Grasp the principles of action of bone grafts, membranes for guided-bone regeneration, and biological modifiers in the context of new bone formation.
• Identify the indications of the various modalities of hard tissue regeneration materials and techniques.
• Discuss surgical details related to the use of bone grafts, guided-bone regeneration, and biological agents as to maximize outcomes and prevent complications.
• Provide scientific evidence to support the use of regenerative surgical materials and techniques is selecting specific cases for treatment.
FCE5: To Kill or Not to Kill the Biofilm: The Art of Medicine in Periodontal Therapy
10:45 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. Periodontal and Systemic Interrelationships
Moderator: Michael S. Reddy Speakers: Nicolaas Geurs and Purnima Kumar
Antibiotics and antimicrobials are widely used in periodontal therapy. Although benefits of antibacterial therapy are well documented, concerns about the changes in the biofilm are a concern. The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance among bacterial pathogens has become a major threat to public health. Emerging science offers alternatives to killing bacteria. Biofilm inhibition extends the effect from mechanical removal of the plaque. Inflammation regulation mitigates the detrimental effects. This course will guide the practitioner in the selection of the right medicine for each individual patient to optimization of periodontal therapy and minimize complications.
Educational Objectives: • Distinguish your practice with mindful holistic medicine.
• Translate biofilm science into practical solutions for your patients.
• Utilize inflammation regulation in routine maintenance.
FCE6: The Full-Arch Implant Supported Restoration: What a Periodontist Should Know
10:45 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. Emerging Concepts and Innovative Therapies
Moderator: Thiago Morelli Speaker: Ricardo Mitrani
The patient population requiring full-arch implant supported restorations is staggering in this day and age. The reality is that there is so much to consider when choosing between the different implant solutions available that there are common communication gaps between the treating team. This may frequently lead the treating teams to utilize a “one-size-fits-all” approach, that in many instances, does not fit all.
The need for decision trees/treatment planning algorithms that involve all pertinent aspects is fundamental in order to choose the most suitable solution for a given patient.
Educational Objectives:
• Describe what treatment options are available for patients with terminal dentition or those who are already edentulous.
• Learn a linear process to formulate the ideal treatment plan based on the patient´s condition, desire, and finances.
• Optimize communication between the treating team: restorative dentist, surgeon, and technician.
