Dental implants and esthetic dentistry have evolved into integral elements of contemporary dental practice. We must develop the ability to evaluate cosmetic deficiencies and design procedures for smile enhancement. Implant soft tissue development into an anatomical form is critical to mimic natural teeth. Dr. Smith will describe step by step sequencing for single teeth implants and adjacent missing teeth challenges. The advantages of digital dentistry will be presented. “Pearls” from the single missing tooth to the fully edentulous reconstruction will be highlighted.
Learning Objectives:
- Soft tissue development with provisional restorations
- Understanding the differences between single and adjacent implants
- How to create and when to make a INOL immediate provisional
- “Pearls” for efficiency, material selection and profitability
