RISE aims to elevate learning, bringing everyone into aligned, elevated educational experiences.
This comprehensive program, led by Dr Jonathan Esquivel, is designed to help clinicians navigate the complex world of implant prosthodontics, with a focus on achieving functional, biological, and esthetic success in implant cases. Today’s patients demand restorations that not only function well but look indistinguishable from natural teeth. This course emphasizes the importance of prosthetically driven treatment planning and the integration of biological principles to achieve superior outcomes. Dr Esquivel will guide you through a four-step approach that covers diagnosis, treatment planning, and execution, ensuring you have the tools to enhance your success in implant therapy.
Key concepts such as reverse-engineered treatment planning, dento-gingival analysis, and imaging and surgery driven by prosthetic design will be explored. You’ll learn how to manage the soft tissue-restorative interface, select the right materials, and design prosthetics that promote tissue stability and esthetic outcomes. By the end of the course, you’ll be better equipped to tackle even the most challenging implant cases and provide your patients with the high-quality results they expect.
Enhance your clinical outcomes, optimize your implant cases, and provide your patients with esthetic, functional, and biologically stable restorations by mastering the principles of implant prosthodontics in this hands-on course.
Upon completion of this session, attendees should be able to:
- Understand how to apply reverse engineered treatment planning to optimize prosthetic outcomes and achieve superior results in implant dentistry.
- Identify key perio-prosthodontic principles to enhance tissue stability and ensure esthetic success throughout the treatment process.
- Gain insights into prosthetic design and material selection that support crestal bone stability and the soft tissue-restorative interface.
