Continuing Professional Education: Immediate Loading: State of the Art

Date: 

Tuesday, July 12, 2022, 11:00am to 12:00pm

Location: 

Webinar via Zoom

Speaker: Dr. Tiziano Testori MD, DDS, Msc, FICD

Abstract: The ultimate goal of an immediate loading protocol is to reduce the number of surgical interventions and shorten the time frame between surgery and prosthetic delivery, all without sacrificing implant success rates. Immediate loading will ultimately lessen patients' reservations and result in increased acceptance of implant therapy. The lecture will address the latest digital protocols and a variety of topics related to immediate loading in different clinical situations: edentulous mandible and maxilla, partially edentulous patients from single tooth to multiple units.

Learning Objectives:

1. Predictable clinical indications
2. Contraindications to immediate loading
3. Digital pre-prosthetic diagnostic phase
4. Step-by-step surgical/prosthetic procedures in totally and partially endentulous patients
