Full-Arch Implant Supported Zirconia

Full-Arch Implant Supported Zirconia is organized by Dentaltown, L.L.C.
Released: 01/24/2018
Expiration Date: 06/30/2025
Overview:
Implant Supported Hybrid appliances have proven to be an exceptional and highly specialized treatment option for patients with non-restorable teeth or existing edentulism. The use of zirconia provides the ultimate outcome bringing with it a new standard of esthetics, function and, when done well, a long lasting prosthesis. This presentation will stress the importance of treatment planning, CAD CAM technology, and the all important need for the laboratory technician’s human touch. Surgical aspects, provisonalization during healing, and management of soft tissue are important components. The protocol for final fabrication of the all zirconia prosthesis is detailed along with a description of this exciting new technology.
Educational Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to achieve the following:
• Discuss the advantages of the full arch implant supported all zirconia (FP-3) prosthesis.
• Gain an appreciation for optimal oral hygiene compatibility and the need for the proper intaglio design of the FP-3 all zirconia prosthesis.
• Recognize the “new standard of esthetics” the FP-3 all zirconia prosthesis provides when a knowledgeable and artistic laboratory technician is used.
• Describe the data collection required to fabricate the Prettau FP-3 and the value of the participant's chair time versus laboratory costs.
Note: The fee to view this course is $36. This cost includes the fee to take the exam and claim your CE credits.
