This enables the patients to become active participants in their treatment planning process and also allows them to grasp realistic expectations of their treatment, whether good or bad, prior to committing to any procedures.
Course Objectives: At the completion of this program, each participant will be able to:
Appreciate and understand the value of safety and precision in Digital Implant Dentistry utilizing face scanner, 3D CBCT and optical scanner from the diagnosis and treatment planning phase to the final surgical and prosthetic execution phase.
Identify significant anatomy and pathology to avoid complications and to increase predictability.
Propose treatment plan from a perio-prosthodontic perspective using 3D CBCT in order to provide an ideal, functional, and esthetic outcome.
Understand the key determining factors affecting long-term stability.
