Implants in the Esthetic Zone – Beyond the Straight Path: For Single and Full Arch Cases
About This Event
This Course has both a didactic and a hands-on component (Fabrication of Provisionals for Implants) for the 6-hour course. Replacing teeth in the esthetic zone presents some of the most challenging—and rewarding—opportunities in implant dentistry. This comprehensive lecture explores the critical biological, surgical, and prosthetic factors that drive long-term success and natural-looking results in the anterior maxilla. Attendees will gain a practical understanding of contemporary treatment planning strategies, immediate implant placement protocols, soft tissue management, provisional techniques, and digital workflows. Through clinical case discussions, step-by-step protocols, and evidence-based decision-making, participants will learn how to optimize esthetic outcomes while minimizing complications. Whether you are a restorative dentist, prosthodontist, or surgeon, this session will help you elevate your approach to anterior implant therapy—from diagnosis to final restoration.
Learning Objectives
- Understand site evaluation and risk assessment specific to the esthetic zone.
- Review flap design, immediate placement, and grafting strategies for optimal tissue preservation.
- Explore provisional protocols that guide soft tissue architecture.
- Integrate digital tools (intraoral scanning, CBCT, and guided surgery) into anterior implant planning.
- Analyze real-world cases and common pitfalls to improve predictability.
