How to Revive the "Sick" Dental Implant
Educational Objectives
After completing this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Explore the etiology of implant disease from both a microbial and surface corrosion perspective.
- Develop an understanding of the diode/erbium wavelength as related to the effects on target tissue for implants.
- Create a step-by-step workflow in managing peri-implant disease.
- Demonstrate how the integration of an all-tissue laser creates a positive niche for patient acceptance and value-added revenue stream.
Abstract
While inflammation associated with dental implants is at an all-time high, we can prevent loss of implants with innovative chairside techniques to 1) reverse implant mucositis, and 2) demonstrate success via minimally invasive techniques with bone loss implantitis.
Landmark studies demonstrate validity in managing peri-implant disease with GBT (Guided Biofilm Therapy) and all-tissue-erbium lasers. Clinical research shows how erbium laser wavelengths have been incorporated into procedures for treating peri-implant disease with no adverse thermal events as to the integrity of implant surfaces. We will define user-friendly protocols for all team members, establishing systems related to severity of implantitis with expectations. Patient talk tracks for positive case acceptance will be reviewed.
