Interface Development: Managing Ridge Deformities in the Esthetic Zone - Part 3 of 3
This presentation by three members of a single multidisciplinary reconstruction team suggests recent changes to their armamentarium to meet the challenges of reconstruction of ridge deformities in the esthetic zone.

Immediate Extraction and Temporization
Biomechanics of Early and Immediate Loading

Techniques for Immediate Implant Replacement and Provisionalization of a Central Incisor
Dr. Paul Petrungaro demonstrates the step-by-step immediate flapless implant replacement of an extracted central incisor.

A Full Mouth Rehabilitation in Four Major Visits
Modern technology can dramatically cut the time and number of visits for a complex implant case while greatly improving the precision of the final result. The great advantage of the processes shown in this presentation is that the clinician retains full control of precision implant placement, emergence profile development and the construction and aesthetics of the final rehabilitation.

Insights, Trends & Controversies in Implant Dentistry
In this first of a 4 part series, Dr. Dennis tarnow shares insights into new trends, developments and controversies in implant dentsitry. In this section, Dr. Tarnow discusses important topics related to implantitis, the gap, one-abutment/one-time, implant surfaces and design to name just a few.

Immediate Anterior Implant Therapy: Comprehensive Esthetic Management
To achieve "Esthetic perfection", every minimal detail should be considered, starting from the temporary on the day of the surgery: Dr Agnini will describe various clinical options and techniques for efficiently and esthetically fabricating a temporary restoration immediately after implant placement in the replacement of a single tooth.

Save the Natural Tooth or Place an Implant? Three Periodontal Decisional Criteria to Perform a Correct Therapy
To perform advanced periodontal therapy to save a natural tooth or to extract it and place an implant-which is best?

Determining the Cessation of Vertical Growth of the Craniofacial Structures to Facilitate Placement of Single-Tooth Implants
<b>Introduction:</b> Single-tooth implants are commonly used to replace congenitally missing teeth in adolescent orthodontic patients. However, if implants are placed before cessation of facial growth, they will submerge relative to the adjacent erupting teeth. Therefore, it is important to know when facial growth is complete in postpubertal orthodontic patients. The purposes of this study were to determine and quantify the amount of vertical growth of the facial skeleton and the amount of eruption…

Immediate Dentoalveolar Restoration - A New Technique for Compromised Extraction Sites
Immediate loading of implant in damaged fresh extraction socket with gingival architecture involvement, using bone sliver graft from maxillary tuberosity: a clinical case. <br> Immediate loading of implants in undamaged sockets following tooth extraction is very well established in the literature. In cases of tooth loss with socket structure loss, the esthetic risk increases, thus contraindicating immediate loading, such that the bone graft procedure needs to be prior to implant insertion. This paper describes an immediate loading procedure in a damaged fresh socket in the region of an upper central incisor that presented unevenness of gingival contour.
