Over the past decade, there has been an increase in oral implant treatments. With the advent of digital workflows and integration of guided surgical approaches, there has been a trend that shows when implants are planned, they are positioned where the bone is rather than where the restorative position dictates. These planned implants are usually in a more lingual or palatal position and when the restorations are completed, the patients may experience various complications such as food impaction and the inability to properly maintain their implant suprastructures. Additionally, the accumulation of bacteria and plaque leads to the potential of periimplant infection and prosthetic complications which may lead to the potential failure of the implant itself.

This lecture will provide an up-to-date evidence-based discussion for the oral healthcare professional on the use of probiotics and their role in dentistry.

Summary: 
The impact of probiotics on human health has been substantiated for many years as they have been advocated for the prevention and treatment of a wide range of diseases. In recent years, the application of probiotics for oral health has attracted much attention. There is an increasing body of research which suggests that probiotics could be useful in the prevention and treatment of oral problems and infections such as halitosis, dental caries, and periodontal disease. This lecture will be provide an up-to-date evidence-based discussion for the oral healthcare professional on the use of probiotics and their role in dentistry.

This webinar featuring Irene Orellano will cover getting patients to understand that their cleaning is more than JUST a cleaning!

The long-term success of an implant-supported rehabilitation is strictly influenced by both the density and volume of available bone and the quality of soft tissues at the implant site Thoroughly analyzing the anatomic situation and well-planned treatment has become a requirement, because incorrectly planned and positioned implants may jeopardize long-term esthetic and functional prognosis. In addition, many types of biocompatible materials, autogenous hard and soft tissue grafts, and different surgical techniques have been developed. In this webinar we will review and discuss procedures to achieve a predictable and long lasting results with soft and hard tissue augmentation.

De plus en plus de patients bénéficient d’un traitement implantaire. Une fois la réhabilitation prothétique supra-implantaire réalisée, il est important de garder un suivi et une maintenance chez nos patients afin de prévenir la survenue d’éventuelles complications implantaires et péri-implantaire. Malgré cela, des complications biologiques peuvent survenir. Ces dernières années nous ont permis de connaître de mieux en mieux les principes fondamentaux et les facteurs influençant les maladies péri-implantaires, de même les outils pour leur diagnostic et leur prise en charge. A travers ce webinar interactif nous verrons les différentes étapes stratégiques de diagnostic et de traitements de la péri-implantite afin que vous puissiez dès le lendemain les mettre en applications.
