OVERVIEW
Advanced Restorative Options with Dental Implants for Fully Edentulous Arches (Part I & II: Lecture and Hands-On) is organized by Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of University of Southern California (USC) and will be held during Jun 08 - 09, 2018 at Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of USC, Los Angeles, California, United States of America. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 16 Continuing Education Credits.
Conference Description :
In this course, participants will gain confidence and proficiency in restoring most full arch implant supported situations. Various fixed and removable options will be presented. Both internal and external connections will be discussed, as well as the use of non-engaging multi-unit abutments. On day one, lectures will address all of the above topics. On day two, in addition to lectures and demonstrations by the instructors, participants will have the opportunity to participate in a hands-on workshop including techniques for accurate full arch implant impressions, fabricating provisionals for fully edentulous arches, and learning how to assess the fit of full arch metal or zirconia bars and frameworks.
Conference Topics : Day I - Lecture Only : Diagnosis and treatment planning :
• Treatment planning for the fully edentulous maxilla and mandible.
• Fixed and removable options.
• Number of implants required to support different options.
• Surgical guides for ideal placement.
Implant prosthetics :
• Fixed and removable restorations.
• Provisionalization.
• Impression techniques.
• Biomechanics and occlusion.
• Material choices.
Day II - Lecture and Hands-On : Demonstrations: Instructor will demonstrate :
• Fabrication of a fixed provisional restoration by converting an existing full denture.
• How to try in full arch frameworks made of titanium or zirconia.
Hands-On: Participants will have the opportunity to :
• Fabricate a surgical guide by duplicating an existing full denture.
