This course will address the following topics:

• Mandibular over dentures
• Immediate placement of Implants for patients about to lose all their teeth
• Immediate loading concepts for edentulous patients
• Biomechanics and its influence on implant position, distribution, length and implant numbers
• Diagnostic considerations for edentulous patients
• The all on 4 concepts
• Step by step management of the edentulous case using fixed bridges and implant retained over dentures
• The difference between implant supported retained and tissue supported concepts and the relationship between the concepts and the number and location of implants and restoration required. Ideal implant positioning, what does this mean?

How does this course apply to you?

Dentists
Dentists will leave the course with an understanding of the biomechanics considerations for managing edentulous patients with implants. They will receive the theoretical knowledge required to manage fixed metal and acrylic bridges for edentulous patients and implant retained over-dentures in the mandible.
