PRESENTER: Dr. Mark Ludlow, DMD

As digital technology becomes more pervasive in everyday practice, there is an increased demand to apply it in ever more expanding clinical situations. This presentation will help demystify the full application of digital technology in the implant patient from initial diagnostics to the final restoration. We will explore digital applications and workflows for all phases of implant dentistry including both surgical and prosthetic applications. 

• Become familiar with practical digital treatment protocols for your practice.
• Understand how digital technologies can enhance treatment outcomes and reduce chair time 
• Predictably implement and execute digital implant treatment plans in everyday clinical practice

Dental implant therapy has become the standard of care for replacing missing teeth in our patients today. As treatment planning becomes more prosthetically driven, it is vital to understand the limitation of the underlying bony anatomy. Many times, there is insufficient bony width and/or height to facilitate the implant placement at the proper prosthetic location. The attendee of this presentation will feel confident in:

• Diagnosing insufficient bony anatomy of edentulous ridges.
• Having an overall understanding of the requirements for dental implant placement.
• Knowing the evidence-based solutions available for augmenting the edentulous ridge.
• Advising patients on the limitations of ridge augmentation procedures and providing a realistic expectation, treatment plan, as well as surgical/prosthetic options.
