The Immediate Implant - Atraumatic Extraction, Immediate Implant Placement, Chairside Provisional Restoration - A Lecture And Hands-On Workshop 2018

The Immediate Implant - Atraumatic Extraction, Immediate Implant Placement, Chairside Provisional Restoration - A Lecture And Hands-On Workshop is organized by Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of University of Southern California (USC) and will be held from Jul 28 - 29, 2018 at Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States of America. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 16 Continuing Education Credits.

Conference Description:
Immediate Implant: Lecture & Hands-On :
Immediate implant placement and immediate provisionalization has gained popularity because it may reduce treatment time and the number of surgical interventions. A recent systematic review of the scientific evidence supports immediate implant placement as a safe procedure when certain guidelines are followed. This course will focus on all aspects of immediate implant placement and immediate provisionalization, including atraumatic extraction instrumentation and techniques, immediate implants in molar sites, management of extraction sites with labial wall defects, fabrication of an immediate chairside provisional and much more. The discussion will focus on some of the most commonly asked questions, such as which is the best graft material to use to graft the gap? What type of interim provisional restorations to use in order to minimize tissue loss? What decisions should be made regarding immediate implant placement versus delayed implant placement? This course is designed for the novice and advanced clinician and is the first in our series on implant site development and bone grafting.

Immediate Provisionalization: Lecture & Hands-On :
There are many ways to effectively provisionalize the immediate implant, and in this presentation several options will be discussed. These options include cement-retained and screw-retained provisionals, utilizing either temporary abutments or definitive abutments. Also techniques for utilizing prefabricated crown forms and vacu-formed matrices will be discussed. Different material choices will be presented, such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) acrylic resins and dimethacrylate (Bis GMA) composite resins. And finally the advantages and disadvantages of the different techniques and different materials will be analyzed.

Conference Objectives are :
• Know principles of proper implant positioning.
• Perform minimally invasive tooth removal techniques and instrumentation.
• Remove broken and difficult teeth with minimal flap.
• Know the pros and cons of immediate versus delayed implant placement.
• Describe the difference in bone response between immediate and delayed implants.
• Identify risk factors for complications with immediate implants.
• Be able to perform socket grafting.
• Literature and indications for grafting.
• What to look for in choosing a graft material.
• Know the management of extraction sites with facial bony defects.
• Know how to manage the post-extraction site in order to minimize hard and soft tissue loss.
• Identify differences in implant stability between immediate and delayed implants.
• Be able to fabricate provisional restorations to load immediate implants.
• Be familiar with PMMA and Bis GMA provisional resin materials.
• Know the advantages and disadvantages of screw retained and cement-retained provisional restorations.
• Have enough information to decide with confidence which type of provisional restoration to routinely use.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
