Simplifying The Restorative Dentist’s Role in Implant Dentistry: An Economical Approach

In this full-day lecture and hands-on workshop, which has been offered at national dental meetings and regularly sells out at TUSDM, Dr. Allen Schneider will present his insights into how implant dentistry can be done simply and economically.  A waitlist will be offered once the class has reached its maximum optimal capacity.

During the morning session, Dr. Schneider will focus on some of the newest techniques for simplifying implant prosthetics. The lecture will explore the current state of dental implantology, which is experiencing a shift as patents expire and many international systems are becoming available at significantly reduced prices.

This course will incorporate information about a large array of different implant systems as well as an introduction to the Megagen IDS implant system. The hands-on workshop will feature the Megagen AnyRidge implant system, and all concepts and exercises can be applied to any implant system in use in your office.

This course will also feature extensive information on overdentures, which are one of the most cost-effective, successful and well-known treatment approach for reconstructing fully edentulous patients. Participants will improve their ability to diagnosis edentulous patients, treatment plan their care and determine the number of implants needed for ideal outcomes. Participants will learn how to easily change attachments in seven seconds or less, and will receive a valuable briefing on contemporary dental products in order to help them keep their office costs down.

During the afternoon session, Dr. Schneider will address methods of simplifying the fixed restorative aspect of implant dentistry, and the potential benefits of having the surgical and restorative doctors treatment plan together. This session will include information on treating the partial to fully edentulous (All On Four) patient.  Impression techniques, CAD/CAM technology and digital dentistry will be reviewed, providing the clinician with a wide array of tools in order to produce optimum esthetic results.
