Microgeometry of Implant Surfaces - Part 1

Description:
Dr. Jack Ricci, Associate Professor and Masters Program Director of Biomaterials Science at New York University, discusses the science behind the Laser-Lok microchannels surface in implant design. This presentation is critical to understand the biology that is behind the soft tissue-implant relationship in the critical zone of the subgingival dentistry. Implications to tissue health, integrity and stability are detailed especially as they impact the clinician.

Andres; Interestingly, that idea is already being done by Biohorizons offering the laserlok technology on their abutments.
good ideas.

Dr. Salama

why no combine all three advantage in one implant system? an implant with morse cone conection like ankylos, and the neck of the abutment with microchannels for soft tissue suport? why not use the microgrooves technology in the first parts of the abutments?

Maurice Salama - (1/2/2009 6:40 AM)

Implant Microgeometry, Microgrooves offer mechanical loading effeciencies , laser microchannels offer biological affinity for certain types of cells, platform switching offers reduced artificial materials in the subgingival arena and possible alteration of the biological remodelling that occurs at the prosthetic connection, one piece unibody implants offer the advantage of no microgap.
What do the members of XP think is most important?

Zygomatic Implants in the Treatment of Fully Edentulous Patients Premium Member Content

Zygomatic Implants in the Treatment of Fully Edentulous Patients
This presentation aims to bring some possibilities in the treatment of edentulous patients with a severe atrophic maxilla. The major problem is that the absence of an appropriate bone bed, will compromise any approach with bone grafts and substitutes, as well as involving a greater morbidity and treatment time. In this way the oral rehabilitation with zygomatic implants is a current need for many patients, which will require a scientific knowledge of the dental care professional. Through this slide show and video demonstration you will be able to recognize and diagnose cases recommended for the therapy with zygomatic implants and its possible configurations supporting an oral rehabilitation.

Aesthetic Enhancement of Anterior Dental Implants with the Use of Tapered Osteotomes & Soft Tissue Manipluation
An adequate bone base is usually a prerequisite for functionally and aesthetically optimal reconstruction of the soft tissue architecture around a dental implant. In patients with sufficient bone height but insufficient bone width as a result of tooth loss, a jaw enlargement technique with osteotomes combined with soft tissue manipulation may be utilized to facilitate proper implant placement while concomitantly optimizing the aes thetics of the final implant prosthesis. The learning objective of…

Optimizing Anterior Esthetics with Immediate Implant Placement and a Fixed Provisional Restoration

Optimizing Anterior Esthetics with Immediate Implant Placement and a Fixed Provisional Restoration
Implant placement immediately after tooth extraction, followed by an immediate provisional restoration of a single dental implant, provides significant benefits compared with traditional delayed protocols. Patients are not burdened with cumbersome removable interim prostheses, osseous anatomy may be preserved, sulcular form is optimized before definitive restoration, soft tissue has matured before implant integration, fewer surgical interventions are required, and treatment time is accelerated.…
