Implant Risks, Complications, and Solutions in the Esthetic Zone - Part 2 of 3
Immediate tooth replacement therapy has become a mainstream treatment modality for single tooth implants in the esthetic zone. The balance between achieving primary stability, implant diameter, and gap distance is a delicate dance yet essential for survival and esthetics. However, esthetic risks and complications exist such as apical socket perforation, loss of labial plate thickness over time, and loss of the interdental papilla due to proximity issues with tooth-to-implant distance following placement. An inverted body-shift implant design concept as solutions to these challenges will be presented and supported by studies that scientifically supports, validates, and reinforces the biologic principles in design that ultimately enhances esthetic outcomes in modern day implantology.

Would Healing in Periodontal Surgery
Adequate Wound Healing is an essential part of a Successful Surgical Procedure. The purpose of this lecture is to go through some of the critical aspects that play a role in the evolution of wound healing after a Periodontal Surgery. The lecture will go in depth into a Biological analysis of the key factors that can modify the evolution of wound healing after a periodontal surgery. At the end of the lecture some conclusions will be posted in regards to how we can use these factors to create a primary intention healing and encounter the clinical results we planned.

A Decade of the Socket-Shield Technique: A Step-by-Step Partial Extraction Therapy Protocol
Ten years have passed since Hürzeler and coworkers
first introduced the socket-shield technique. Much has
developed and evolved with regard to partial extraction
therapy, a collective concept of utilizing the
patient’s own tooth root to preserve the periodontium
and peri-implant tissue. The specifications, steps, instrumentation,
and procedures discussed in this article
are the result of extensive experience in refining the
socket-shield technique as we know it today. A repeatable,
predictable protocol is requisite to providing
tooth replacement in esthetic dentistry. Moreover, a
standardized protocol provides a better framework for
clinicians to report data relating to the technique with
procedural consistency. This article aims to illustrate a
reproducible, step-by-step protocol for the socket-
shield technique at immediate implant placement
and provisionalization for single-rooted teeth.

Modified IVAN Technique: Long-Term Follow-Up of 20 Cases Over 2 to 11 Years
When natural teeth fail, frequently there is a loss of hard and soft tissue. This may complicate subsequent dental implant placement by
creating insufficient bone to house the implant. This also occurs when the tooth has been missing for an extended period, especially in the
premaxilla, where the bone is less dense and often lacks sufficient volume of facial bone. Site reconstruction to accommodate implant
placement often requires both hard and soft tissue augmentation. The modified interpositional vascularized augmentation neogenesis
(mIVAN) technique achieves the desired treatment goals in both delayed and immediate placement scenarios. The technique will be
discussed as well as the long-term follow-up on 20 cases.

The Modified IVAN Technique: Hard and Soft Tissue Augmentation at Extraction for Delayed Implant Placement
Failure of a natural tooth may not permit placement of
an implant at the time of extraction due to insufficiency
in available bone to house the implant. Reconstruction
of the extraction socket frequently involves both hard
and soft tissue augmentation to provide a site that can house
the implant and ridge contours that mimic the adjacent natural
anatomy. This situation becomes more problematic in the
maxillary anterior due to the anatomy and the lower density of
the bone of the premaxilla.
The solution is the interpositional vascularized augmentation
neogenesis (IVAN), which consists of hard tissue grafts, various
barrier membranes, and closure with the pediculated connective
tissue graft (PCTG). The modified IVAN (mIVAN) technique
achieves the necessary goals and may be used in both delayed
and immediate placement situations.

Microsurgical Soft Tissue Reconstruction for Teeth & Implants - Part 2 of 2
Esthetics plays a key role in a modern society and the average dental health of the population is improving every day. In such environment, the demands of dental treatments are different and dentists should approach their patients in a different way: they should be prepared to implement different and modern techniques around teeth and implants. Soft tissue grafting techniques provide the dentist with an armamentarium that makes possible to prevent and solve many problems and complications around teeth and implants, making more predictable the treatments results.
This presentation is focused in the importance of soft tissue grafting techniques around teeth and implants and how to do it in a predictable, modern and a minimally invasive way. We present many different techniques illustrated with clinical cases.
