DETAILED PROGRAM

DAY 1

9.05-9.15

Dr. Zsolt Németh, Dr. Levente Sidó
Implantology Congress – Opening

09.15-10.30

Dr. Martin Tomecek
Immediate Implant Placement Into Incomplete Extraction Socket
 

Immediate implant placement with a socket-sealing abutment or temporary restoration is a highly effective treatment option for maintaining the original morphology and natural aesthetics of the gingiva around implant-supported prosthetic restorations. However, the availability of this treatment can be complicated in cases of socket bone wall defects, which impair implant stability, compromise alveolar ridge bone healing, and increase the risk of soft tissue collapse, leading to a loss of soft tissue volume, quality, and anatomy. In this lecture, two available treatment options will be presented: Immediate Dentoalveolar Restoration (IDR) and the Multilayer technique. The IDR, based purely on autologous materials, leverages the unique biological features of tuberosity corticocancellous bone grafts. The Multilayer technique, utilizing xenogenic cortical lamina, will be presented as an effective and predictable approach for implant placement in extraction sockets with incomplete bone walls. Key aspects include: 1. Soft tissue support to prevent collapse, 2. Soft tissue recontouring in the same step, 3. Soft tissue management in cases of severe deficiency and fistulation, 4. Replacement of missing bone walls with a tuberosity bone or cortical lamina device, and 5. Bone augmentation using autologeous spongaeous bone and autologous dentin.

Lecture Objectives:

– Evaluation of the socket defect for the correct choice of technique, clinical management of an inflammed and destroyed bone socket
– Multilayer technique and Immediate Dentoalveolar technique
– Autologeous dentin as a potent bone grafting material providing both volumetric stability and osteoinduction.

Coffee Break

11.00-12.30

Dr. Kalin Marinov
Perio-Prostho Approach and Digital Workflow in Implantology in Full-Arch

In today’s dentistry and implantology “the digital approach” is everywhere. Let us get down to “digital” specifics:

– What is the decision making process when we choose FP1 vs FP3 cases, how do we plan FP1 case with the papilla and supra-crestal tissues in mind, what role CBCT segmentation and VEX model plays and when FP3 is the better option?
– What are the implant and prosthetic components available digitally that can lead to success?
– Can we combine FP1 and FP3 in a single arch depending on the papilla availability, local bone and soft tissue architecture?
– How to execute FP3 COPA fast & fixed with the STAR concept?

Lunch Break

14.00-15.30

Dr. Minas Leventis
The Art and Science of Implantology: Simplifying Everyday Challenges

Achieving predictable outcomes and long-term stability in our cases requires a clear understanding of the biological system at the core of implantology. This lecture explores the critical elements that determine the success of implant therapy, emphasising how these factors are interconnected and interdependent. Through everyday clinical cases, Dr Leventis will discuss the crucial pillars of modern implantology, including bacteria control, bone biology, and soft tissue management. Furthermore, he will introduce simplified, well-structured protocols and innovative materials for the enhancement of healing and the alveolar ridge reconstruction, aligning with these biological principles. By integrating these concepts into daily practice, clinicians can enhance patient outcomes and establish solid workflows for their approach to implant therapy.

Dr. Michel Rogé
Full Mouth Rehabilitation: 35+ Years of Clinical Experience

Prosthetic management for implant-supported full mouth rehabilitation is a complex procedure that requires expertise and a broad vision. Unfortunately, the means involved in prosthetic treatment often overshadow the essence of our achievements. It becomes increasingly evident that the efficiency of technology and science is overshadowing the philosophy and humanistic dimension of our profession.

Albert Einstein once said, “The perfection of the means and the confusion of the goal seem to characterize our age.” This presentation aims to demonstrate that in the treatment of full mouth restoration, the objective must be clearly identified because it dictates the selection of the means.

Rather than seeking an ideal treatment, which is unrealistic given the multitude of contributing factors, we must ask ourselves:

– What does the patient want?
– What does the patient need?
– What can we achieve?

These questions bring up issues of our responsibilities and values:

– Should we respond to the patient's request regardless of its relevance and give them what they desire, or should we educate them?
– Can we consider that standardization and protocol should govern our practice?
– Should we maintain our identity, creativity, and imagination to preserve the artistic dimension of our profession?
– Can we believe that the quality of our achievements is exclusively dependent on products and technology?

10.30-11.00
Coffee Break

11.00-12.30

Dr. Ignazio Loi
The Horizontal Path of Marginal Tissues

BOPT (Biological Oriented Preparation Technique) is a procedure prosthetic simplification that allows to intervene in clinical cases already treated prosthetically, without multidisciplinary interventions. New concepts will be examined: controlled sulcus invasion, profiles emerging adaptation, differentiated abbrasion that are part of the technique itself. Step-by-step cases will be presented with long-term follow-up proving of the stability of the esthetic results. The concepts of the B.O.P.T. technique have been also transferred to the implant field with the creation of the vertical abutment millable. The resulting thickening of the soft tissues allows for greater stability of the same and better aesthetics in the marginal. The further evolution of these concepts was the creation of a transmucosal implant with a vertical component: IL.

12.30-14.00
Lunch break

14.00-14.45

Dr. Milan Vucetic
Posterior Maxillary Implant Rehabilitation: Current Challenges and Evidence-Based Strategies
 

Theposterior maxilla often presents significant challenges due to insufficient bone quality and quantity, particularly for implant-fixed rehabilitation. To address these challenges, clinicians must be adept in various clinical strategies that emphasize minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as the use of piezosurgery. Employing these strategies during tooth extraction can optimize bone and soft tissue conditions and prevent sinus pneumatization, thus facilitating future implant placement. When the extraction site has healed in the upper posterior zone, alternative treatment options become necessary. These include bone augmentation procedures, such as sinus transcrestal or lateral lifts with standard axial implant placement, or the use of short or tilted dental implants that bypass the need for bone augmentation. This lecture will delve into the specific requirements and considerations of these advanced treatment modalities, providing a comprehensive overview for successful clinical outcomes.

14.45-15.45

Dr. Jameel Gardee

Implantology Congress – Opening

9.15-10.15

Dr. Miren Zaverski
Contemporary Periodontal and Peri- Implant Therapy

Both periodontal and peri-implant disease develop as a result of the accumulation of bacterial plaque and so the treatment for both diseases adopts the same principles. Even though treatment principles are similar, outcomes differ as well as long term prognosis. Proper understanding of biological principles, development and progression of these diseases as well as understanding and creating simplified protocols can have a big impact when treating complex cases. Application of minimally invasive concept, gentle tissue management during non-surgical and surgical techniques allow the clinician to obtain predictable, successful and long term results.

10.15-10.45
Coffee Break

10.45-11.45

Dr. Eran Gabay
Extreme Alveolar Ridge Resorption, the Ultimate Challenge

As the demand for dental implants solutions is growing rapidly, the need to manage severe alveolar bone deficiency is growing accordingly. Dental trauma, untreated periodontal and peri-implant diseases, failing surgical procedures and prolonged use of dentures, may cause severe alveolar bone deficiency. In his lecture, Dr Eran Gabay will demonstrate the difficulties and dilemmas that clinicians are facing. Dr Gabay will give his own original perspective and interpretation for those cases. He will demonstrate how complexed cases can become much simpler by using creative and innovative solutions by applying several regenerative techniques in the same case.
