Synopsis:
The explosion of dental implants in recent years has had a profound impact in dentistry. More than 30 million Americans are missing teeth and could benefit from implants and yet only 10% of all US dentists are placing them. This rapidly evolving field can be intimidating to dentists who weren’t formally trained in placing implants. However, most dentists already possess the surgical skills necessary for basic implant placement. This course is designed to show that placing and restoring dental implants can be simple procedures that any dentist can perform in their office. It will explore techniques from the most basic single tooth implant placement and restoration all the way to complex full arch rehabilitation. Particularly, it will show how to carry out these treatments in an efficient and cost effective manner.
