Implant complications pose significant challenges for dentists involved in implant procedures. This special lecture aims to equip participants with a comprehensive understanding of the factors contributing to peri-implantitis, enabling them to prevent these complications effectively. Topics include crucial aspects such as optimal implant positioning in six dimensions, restorative variables (e.g., crown contour, the distance between crown margin and fixture bone level, abutment height, residual cement, occlusion, tissue phenotype around the implant prosthesis), and various surgical considerations related to peri-implant diseases, including soft and hard tissue factors. The lecture will thoroughly explore strategies to avert these complications. Additionally, participants will gain insights into selecting the most appropriate treatment modalities for varied peri-implantitis defects, such as the "submerged regenerative approach," "osseous surgery combined with implantoplasty," and the "rescue implant approach." The correction of implant buccal dehiscence defects through soft tissue grafting will also be illustrated.
- Gain practical experience and confidence in determining the appropriate treatment approach for different types of peri-implantitis lesions.
- Master the EP-DDS protocol for regenerating peri-implant defects, acquiring proficiency in advanced methods to enhance clinical outcomes.
- Become familiar with specialized tools for disinfecting contaminated implant surfaces, including implantoplasty and osseous surgery techniques.
- Understand the application of soft tissue grafting to address implant esthetic complications effectively.
- Learn strategies to prevent implant complications related to restorative processes through precise implant placement and careful restorative reconstructions.
