Course Description:
This presentation includes a candid discussion of the oral health care needs of the approximately 40 million edentulous adults in the USA. Many of these patients cannot afford or are too debilitated to have extensive oral care. There are several extensive and very expensive treatments for these patients that are currently being heavily promoted by companies and the lay press. However, there are less expensive and highly successful ways to treat many more of these patients very adequately including:
• Two conventional diameter implants in the canine areas followed by an overdenture
• Four small diameter implants in the anterior region followed by an overdenture
• Four conventional diameter implants, two in the anterior region and two in the posterior region followed by an overdenture
Learning Objectives:
- Utilizing small diameter implants in the anterior region for the edentulous patient
- How to best manage the knife ridge mandible for overdenture candidates
