Dental implant courses, digital dentistry training, and more

Shadowing an oral surgeon at MALO CLINIC provides a better understanding of what a doctor’s typical day is like, and a great way to gain familiarity with different surgical procedures and environments.

If you are a dentist looking to increase your knowledge in different aspects of Oral Surgery including Implant Dentistry, this is the right venue for you!

Take advantage of shadowing top oral surgeon Prof. Armando Lopes and learn directly from the source! 

Clinical features of Prof. Armando Lopes include implant dentistry, from single teeth, to the All-on-4® concept and zygomatic implants; 3-D navigated surgery (X-Guide) and digital planning; Complications management (including surgical interventions to resolve implant complications).

Course Overview

• Comprehensive overview of the All-on-4® concept – surgical protocol
• All-on-4® concept – immediate and final prosthetic considerations (MALO CLINIC ceramic bridge, MALO CLINIC acrylic bridge, PEEK, hi-fiber)
• All-on-4® concept – laboratory considerations
• All-on-4® concept – the science of things: clinical research, diagnosis, risk assessment, prognosis, and prophylaxis
• LIVE All-on-4® concept surgery

Synopsis

The All-on-4® concept is an innovative surgical procedure for the rehabilitation of edentulous jaws focusing entirely on the patient. By taking advantage of the dense bone available in the anterior maxilla and between the mandibular foramina, this widely applicable surgical technique allows the treatment of a significantly greater number of patients, while avoiding the need for complex, time consuming and often debilitating bone grafting procedures.

An important aspect of the long-term success of the All-on-4® concept is the full-arch implant-supported dental prosthetics. There are several options for both the immediate provisional and the definitive prosthesis with the ensemble of different materials in the infrastructure, the artificial gingiva and the crowns, each option with its own advantages and disadvantages that warrant discussion. Some examples include the MALO CLINIC ceramic bridge, the MALO CLINIC acrylic bridge, the MALO CLINIC PEEK-acrylic bridge.

The presentations by MALO CLINIC will focus on the laboratory process, clinical outcomes and scientific research using different materials in full-arch implant supported prostheses (including zygomatic implants). During these two days, the MALO CLINIC clinical team pioneer of the All-on-4® concept will demonstrate how to achieve immediate function, excellent esthetics and predictable long-term success through state-of-the-art protocols including, surgery, prosthodontics, and maintenance. In this prosthodontic clinical residency, the participant will have the opportunity to watch live surgery, perform prosthodontic hands-on and take advantage of a prosthetic mentorship, watching live patient treatments/appointments and discussing the cases.

This course is targeted to oral surgeons, prosthodontists, or dental laboratory technicians that want to stay up to date with the latest protocols related to the All-on-4® concept.

The tilted implant approach has been a revolutionary technique that has changed the way total implant-supported rehabilitation is done.

Increased patient comfort, time savings, cost savings, and improved esthetic outcome are just some of the advantages brought by these treatments in modern dentistry. Thanks to new trans-sinusal and trans-crestal implant placement methods, it is possible to avoid bone grafting and take advantage of residual bone by tilting the implants not only in the mesio-distal but also in the palato-vestibular direction.

You will be able to try the original protocols with your own hands and place implants according to the Tilted Implants approach. Through surgery on anatomical preparation, it will be possible for each participant to try in real bone every rehabilitation option for atrophic jaws: All-on-4 maxillary and mandibular, Trans-Sinus, Trans-Crestal, Pterygoid and Zygomatic implants.

Learning objectives:

-Learn to perform the correct treatment option based on bone availability. 

-Learn  how to place tilted implants following the original all-on-4 and V-II-V protocol.

-Learn how to manage implant failure in total rehabilitation with tilted implants.

-Learn how to perform trans-sinus and trans-crestal implants in thin residual ridge.

-Learn how to place single and double zygomatic implants. 
 

This comprehensive course is perfect for dentists who want to increase their knowledge and skill set in dental implant surgery.  The program will help you gain a solid foundation in the principles and techniques of implant surgery through extensive hands-on training exercises on models, suture pads, and cadavers.

It employs case-based learning by emphasizing evidence-based learning for daily usage. Participants will learn from the basic tools to the latest advancements in digital implant dentistry. Streamlined clinical and digital workflows will be presented to increase efficiency and clinical outcomes. All the secrets of static guided surgery and X-Guide dynamic navigation will be unveiled to discern when and how to use the different surgical options, including the review of the current CBCT, IOS and Face scanning technologies.

The DTX Studio™ Clinic, DTX Studio™ Implant and DTX Studio™ Lab software will be presented, explaining how to simplify the digital workflow for predictable guided immediate implant placement and immediate loading. The digital implant planning rules for anterior, posterior and full arch cases will be reviewed and updated to achieve biological, functional and esthetic success. The attendees will improve their own confidence and skills with digital planning through immersive software hands-on.

Indications and limitations of the static and dynamic guided surgery will be reviewed and discussed, from simple flapless to advanced procedures, including digital assisted soft tissue sculpturing (DASS Technique), Guided Socket Shield protocols and X-Act Teeth. Special emphasis will be given to interdisciplinary digitally assisted treatment planning and final aesthetics in the different clinical scenarios.
