Clinical Considerations for Implant Dentistry
hosted byDr. Travel Seminars, LLCClinical Considerations for Implant Dentistry is organized by Dr. Travel Seminars, LLC and will be held from Jul 04 - 14, 2024 at Norwegian Prima Ship, Reykjavík, Iceland.
Description:
Patients present to the dental office for reasons related to appearance, function and comfort. All three areas must be in harmony for overall patient satisfaction. Over the last few decades dental implants have become a mainstay for the treatment of the partially or completely edentulous patient and a major contributor to patient satisfaction. Acting almost like ankylosed teeth, dental implant therapy is safe, reliable and fun to do. Practicing either general or specialized dentistry, implants offer our patients an incredibly efficacious treatment. This evidence-based program will overview basic principles related to the practice management, occlusion, restorative/prosthodontic and surgical aspects of dental implant therapy.
