ANNUAL TEAM MEETING

Implants in The Esthetic Zone: Management and Avoidance of Complications

Friday, August 17th, 9:00 am – 4:00 pm

San Francisco Marriott Union Square
480 Sutter St.
San Francisco, CA 94062

7 CE Units   |   Course Fee: $299

When a dental implant is needed in the esthetic zone, several challenges exist, both for the restorative dentist and for the surgeon. Once the initial surgery is completed and the crown is in place, special care and monitoring must be performed which is different from that required for teeth. Effective maintenance with the dental hygienist is key for long-term success. This course is designed for the whole dental team and will cover what makes esthetic zone implants uniquely challenging and how to best care for them.

Who this course is for: Restorative dentists, hygienists, dental assistants, and staff who are in practices that place, restore, or maintain dental implants.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand complications that can arise with implant treatment and restoration
  • Learn techniques to minimize potential complications
  • Understand how complications can be managed in your office and with the periodontist
  • Understand effective communication with the patient and interdisciplinary team
