Feel free to share your comments with the DentalXP community in regards to the following online educational video:

Title: Immediate Extraction and Temporization
Description: In this instructional clinical video, Dr. Alan Meltzer take us through the treatment of a clinical example of an extraction of a maxillary central incisor and its replacement with an implant and the placement of an immediate temporary restoration. Dr. Meltzer outlines every clinical step in the process in great detail, including implant site preparation, restorative abutment selection and preparation as well as fabrication of the provisional restoration all in the same visit.

He should have shown an occlusal view of the Osteotomy which would explain how in these cases we want to engage the palatal bone and stay away from the labial plate. The starting point with the spear shaped drill is the most crucial part of the Osteotomy as it creates the palatal position. Dr. Meltzer glanced over this point very nonchalantly. For the dentist just beginning to contemplate immediate placement, this is the most crucial point of all. He also should have illustrated when to take radiographs during the procedure. The description of the video states he outlines "every clinical step in great detail". I don't believe that this was the case. An average effort.

He did reference the fact that the implant does need to be tucked behind the facial plate of bone Dr. Weinberg, on a number of occasions. Your point however is well taken; would that XP develop an ancillary method of posting graphics or animations to drive home the point - 3D is 3D in learning whether it's cbCT or drawings.
