Have you ever heard a patient say, “My dentist told me I can’t have implants”? This course is designed to challenge that perception by highlighting the latest reconstructive innovations available to even the most compromised cases.

We’ll explore solutions for severe maxillary and mandibular atrophy including custom mesh bone regeneration, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) therapy, subperiosteal frameworks, and zygomatic implants. Whether you’re new to reconstruction or looking to advance your surgical capabilities, this lecture will offer practical, clinical insights to help you say “yes” to more patients.

Upon completion of this program, participants will:

• Understand new treatment pathways for patients with advanced bone loss.

• Identify when and how to utilize emerging regenerative techniques.

• Evaluate the use of custom mesh and BMP in complex reconstructions.

• Review surgical and prosthetic considerations for subperiosteal and zygomatic implants.

• Increase interdisciplinary collaboration to provide patients with comprehensive care options.

This interactive program is designed for doctors and their hygienists to attend together, focusing on the critical role the hygiene team plays in achieving and maintaining implant success. Attendees will learn evidence-based protocols, risk assessment strategies, and practical maintenance techniques to optimize patient outcomes.

We will explore:

• Hygiene Protocols – Best practices for prevention, maintenance, and monitoring around implants and natural teeth.

• Risk & Maintenance – Identifying patient- and site-specific risks and implementing tailored strategies to reduce complications.

• Why Problems Occur – Common causes of peri-implantitis, bone loss, and soft tissue breakdown, with prevention-focused approaches.

• Implants and Occlusion – The impact of occlusion on both implants and teeth, key risk factors, and how to manage them in daily practice.

• Soft Tissue & Bone Health – How to evaluate, protect, and maintain peri-implant tissues for long-term stability.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

1. Implement hygiene protocols that support long-term implant stability and oral health.

2. Recognize and manage risk factors that contribute to implant and periodontal complications.

3. Explain why peri-implant tissue breakdown and bone loss occur and apply strategies for prevention.

4. Evaluate the role of occlusion in implant success and describe how it differs from natural dentition.

5. Develop a collaborative approach between doctor and hygienist to enhance patient education, maintenance, and clinical outcomes.

This course will cover edentulous patient options from digital dentures to screw-retained, fixed implant supported dentures. Technology presumes there's just one right way to do things and there never is. This program will help you understand and determine the best options for each patient based on multiple factors including vertical dimension, smile line, and patient compliance among others. This program will also cover the indications and intended use of several different options. Features and benefits of digital dentures, treatment planning for the edentulous patient and overdentures, and All on X treatment options will be presented and discussed. Digital workflows for each type of restoration will be included. Hands-on activities will encompassed in the course so that you learn how to complete each step along the way.

Upon completion of this program, participants will: 

• Know the difference between implant supported and implant retained options.

• Be able to identify 3 different material options available for screw-retained dentures .

• Understand the treatment planning steps for a screw-retained denture
