COURSE TOPIC: Adding implants under a compromised complete or partial denture may seem like a viable solution to provide improvement for our struggling patients. This course will clarify the specific steps that will have a huge impact on the success of these removable reconstructions.
Participants review state-of-the-art procedures for the highest quality removable prosthodontics and discuss procedures from case design to prosthesis delivery, impression making, and clasp-less partial designs. The course will include a thorough review of the science, fact and opinion of adding implants under an RPD.
For the completely edentulous patient, participants will review the necessary steps in making complete dentures successful while learning that these are the same steps that make overdentures successful. Each restorative dentist will be able to apply complete denture principles of impression making, recording centric and vertical dimension of occlusion as well as occlusal design to their denture and overdenture cases.
Finally, we will discuss many overdenture attachment options that are on the market. These will be broken down into simple categories to understand their similarities. We will create clear guidelines for selecting one overdenture attachment over another. Everyone will learn how many implants are necessary and in what location for todays treatment and tomorrows possibilities.
COURSE OBJECTIVES: Upon completion of this course, attendees will learn how to:
1.Clarify the most important clinical steps to achieve patient success for RPDs
2.Learn to modify impression techniques for attachments and implants
3.Discuss the critical steps for success with complete dentures & overdentures
