Description

This clinical, usable information- packed presentation will describe and identify 10 essential keys for performing immediate single tooth replacement of a hopeless maxillary central incisor. This treatment is considered a complex procedure and a team approach is suggested as the maxillary central incisor is seen as having the most esthetic zone failures resulting in unhappy patients. Once this occurs, restoring the lost hard and soft tissues to their original pre-surgical levels is near impossible. The updated 10 Keys checklist, if strictly followed, will provide high predictability in preventing esthetic complications and offers guidelines to ensure high success based on published studies by Dr. Levine and his clinical research group which confirm the use of the 10 Keys protocol.

Upon completion of this presentation, participants should be able to: 1) recognize the “human factors” that can be the primary causes of technical and environmental complications in implant dentistry due to the lack of “checklists”; 2) describe the “10 Keys” team approach and its use as a diagnostic, surgical and prosthetic sequential checklist to avoid esthetic zone complications; and 3) explain the importance of phenotype modification as part of the surgical protocol with use of autogenous soft tissue grafting or a volume stable collagen matrix.

This webinar will be begin with a 15-minute panel discussion for starting a successful career:

Panel Discussion:
Moderator: Dr. Amerian Sones
Gino DeSimone – Practice Management Consultant
Robert Edwards – Dental CPA
Dr. Vincent Lizzio - Great Expressions (DSO)
