George F. Priest, DMD
Dr. Priest will describe proven techniques and
protocols that enhance esthetic outcomes based on
his experience restoring thousands of implants over
more than 20 years. Specific techniques, materials
and components that profoundly impact implant esthetics will be highlighted. Topics
covered include team collaboration, envisioning the end result, site preservation/
preparation, restoratively driven implant placement, soft tissue development,
abutment selection, lab communication, integration of implants with other
treatment modalities and the post-treatment assessment. This
information-packed day will help restorative dentists,
prosthodontists, periodontists, oral surgeons, orthodontists and
laboratory technicians to predictably enhance esthetic implant
outcomes.
Objectives:
- Direct implant placement with a restoratively driven
surgical guide
- Develop soft-tissue form with provisional restorations
- Select materials and components specific to the
esthetic zone
- Communicate with the laboratory for ideal shade
selection, abutment and crown contours
