Speaker: Dr. Roger Wise

Abstract: The orthodontic profession has only recently focused its attention towards patient driven diagnosis and treatment planning. It is difficult to imagine practicing dentistry today without utilization of dental implants. Smile esthetics can be very challenging or even compromised when implants are involved. In problem-oriented implant treatment planning the orthodontist may help establish a diagnosis that identifies possible improvement or even correction of hard and soft tissue. This lecture will also demonstrate how to establish occlusal and/or spacial relationship prior to implant placement.

Learning Objectives:

At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:

  1. The value of orthodontics in the developing dentition prior to implant placement.
  2. The limitations of orthodontics prior to implant placement in the adult patient.
  3. The importance of orthodontics in the dental alveolar trauma patient prior to implant placement.
