The proper thought process to follow when diagnosing and treatment planning an implant supported reconstruction, from single tooth to full arch type cases.
How implant supported reconstructions fail, and how to avoid their failure.
The significance of diagnostic wax ups, CAT-scans and surgical implant placement guides.
The difference between how implants vs. natural teeth respond to occlusal forces.
Step by step procedures (from impression to delivery) for fabricating an implant supported, fixed for cement prosthesis, from single tooth to full arch type cases.
Proper occlusal adjustments, from single tooth to full arch type cases. How to create an ’Äúimplant protective occlusal scheme’Äù
Proper use of a semi-adjustable articulator and face bow and why it is so important to use one.
The significance of centric relation, from a diagnostic and reconstructive point of view.
Esthetics- How to make the final prosthesis look natural.
Post-Op care...The first year is critical.
Detailed clinical case presentations, demonstrating all of the above topics.
How to manage implant prosthetic complications.

The hands on part of this seminar will allow attendees to:
On models, take open and closed tray implant level impressions.
Pour soft and hard tissue implant models.
Take face bows on other course attendees. Doctors are required to bring study models of your own mouths for this part of the hands on
Review and practice bimanual manipulation on course attendees. (necessary for proper occlusal adjustments)
