Is “All-on-4” the best treatment according to the literature? According to a review of the literature, the type of fixed prosthesis (FP-1, 2 or 3) dictates the number of implants in a fixed prosthesis. 5+ implants are found to have a greater long-term success rate than 4 in the edentulous maxilla (Sadowsky, S. et al., J Prostho 2015).
In this course attendees will explore and practice the most predictable, evidence-based, efficient and cost-effective SURGICAL & RESTORATIVE full-arch fixed techniques. These modern treatment modalities increase success rates, optimize clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction & ultimately, elevating the standard of care.
Case-based learning extensively covers different types of full-arch fixed implant therapies. Potential complications patients and clinicians may experience and most importantly how to avoid and manage them effectively are discussed.
Attendees will also learn to increase case acceptance by enhancing their ability to plan treatment and present complex treatment with the aid of our innovative proprietary software Implantability™.
