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.

Synopsis

Designed for smaller groups, this observation program will allow you to follow in detail the daily work and surgical schedule of MALO CLINIC clinical team with a key focus on high skilled cases as well as on the combination of the All-on-4® surgical protocol with the use of zygoma implants; for severely atrophic maxillae, this procedure is complemented with extra-maxillary anchored implants – hybrid and double-zygoma approaches – which treatment planning and placement will be covered in detail during this training session. 

During this program not only will you get the chance to follow several different procedures at the operating room including live zygoma surgery, as you will also have the opportunity to extensively discuss the All-on-4® protocol hybrid and double-zygoma approaches with our clinical team that will take you through all the relevant aspects, from patient selection to treatment planning, and anatomic and imaging considerations, all the way through to the fitting of the immediate and final prostheses. 

These approaches will also both be covered at a hands-on session. The zygoma clinical residency program will allow you to gain the skills and know-how to successfully rehabilitate severely resorbed maxillae in just a few hours using the MALO CLINIC protocol and is complemented by a mentorship program to support you on your first cases. We also encourage you to bring your own cases for discussion and treatment planning.
