Members: $95 each presentation; Non-Members: $125 each presentation
LA-1 Flapless Surgery - A View from Two Perspectives (pt. 1)
Thomas G. Wilson Jr., DDS
This course will discuss the concept of the flapless approach in details with specific indications and contraindications for its use. Included will be detailed information on the use of traditional surgical templates, the use of guidance programs, and surgical template developed from these programs as well as the use of navigation (robotic surgery).
LA-1 Flapless Surgery - A View from Two Perspectives (pt. 2)
William Becker, DDS
This presentation will discuss the rationale, indications, limitations and potential problems related to flapless and minimal access surgery. We will describe the differences between the two procedures as well as step examples of placing implants using flapless and minimal access surgery.
LA-2 Osteogenic Procedures with Recombinant Human
Platelet-Derived Growth Factor
William V. Giannobile, DDS, DMSc
Myron Nevins, DDS
This presentation will provide evidence of the treatment of periodontal defects and a variety of localized ridge defects for implant placement. The topics include the sinus elevations, horizontal and vertical ridge augmentation and bone preservation for compromised extraction sites.
LA-3 The OSU Frame: A Practical Approach to Immediate Loading for the Edentulous Patient
Edwin A. McGlumphy, DDS
"Final implant restorations on the day after surgery" is the dream of many patients and clinicians. Therefore, there has been considerable recent interest in the concept of immediate or early loading of dental implants. This presentation will describe a method that facilitates the final restoration of the edentulous mandible in two days.
LA-4 Minimally Invasive Reconstruction in the Maxillary
Anterior Area Vestibular Incision Subperiosteal Tunnel Access
Homayoun H. Zadeh, DDS, PhD
Implant therapy of atrophic anterior maxilla is a challenging clinical problem. Although an array of therapeutic options are available for reconstruction of hard and soft tissue in this area, current techniques have some inherent shortcomings. This presentation will provide a rationale, technique and various applications of VISTA (vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access) - a novel, minimally invasive
approach to augmentation in the maxillary anterior area.
LA-5 Latest Strategies in Techniques and Materials for Maxillary Sinus Elevation
Stephen S. Wallace, DDS &
Chris ten Bruggenkate, MD, DMD, PhD
This presentation will present the standard techniques for maxillary sinus elevation for the year 2010. These surgical techniques and grafting decisions have been determined by the evolved evidence-base of the past 30 years. Having this information as a platform, newer techniques and technologies will be presented that are presently available or currently being evaluated in controlled studies. These "state of the art" technologies are being developed to improve outcomes as measured by procedural success, vital bone formation, and reduction in treatment time.





LA-6 Immediate Implant Loading - Surgical and Prosthetic Procedures for Success
Jeffrey Ganeles, DMD
David Guichet, DDS
This presentation will provide an overview of the indications and techniques that are used to provide immediate loading implant dentistry including diagnostic, intra-operative and laboratory procedures. Improvement in evaluation, planning tools, implant design and surface technology will be presented.


LA-7 Immediate Implant Placement or Socket Regeneration - Formula for Success
Jay R. Beagle, DDS &
Zvi Artzi, DMD
The morphology of the post-extraction socket can be quite varied, based on the etiology of tooth loss, and can create a significant challenge for implant placement. Prior to extraction, the clinician must discern the treatment option most appropriate for the patient - natural socket healing followed by delayed implant placement or immediate implant placement with/without augmentation in conjunction with immediate provisionalization. This presentation will describe, in detail, the pros and cons of each surgical approach with clinical histological evidence.
LA-8 The Sandwich Osteotomy - A Versatile and Effective Procedure for Enhancing Implant Placement
Ole T. Jensen, DDS
This presentation will describe the sandwich osteotomy and review best practice procedures for its use for alveolar augmentation.
LA-9 The Classic Dilemma - The Edentulous Posterior Mandible With Super-Erupted Anterior Teeth
Daniel R. Cullum, DDS
This session will review and discuss the indications for implant reconstruction with nerve repositioning, staged posterior augmentation, over-denture or immediate full arch/fixed provisional restoration.
LA-10 Save the Teeth or Extract and Place Implants (part 1)
Pamela K. McClain, DDS
This course will review the current state of the art of periodontal regenerative therapy using various techniques and materials in selective osseous defects as well as discuss its limitations and consideration for placing implants.
LA-11 Prosthetic Keys to Implant Success
Edward R. Schlissel, DDS
This presentation will discuss the key prosthetic factors for single and multiple teeth implant restorations that must be employed at the planning, surgical and restorative phases of treatment.
LA-12 The Secret of Successful Augmentation Procedures
Craig M. Misch, DDS, MDS
This presentation will discuss diagnostic methods to improve the clinician's understanding of the augmentation needs, the aspects of recipient site preparation prior to and during augmentation procedures, and methods to enhance augmentation results and avoid complications.
Opening Symposium
LA-10 Save the Teeth or Extract and Place Implants (part 2)
Edwin S. Rosenberg, DMD
In this day and age, teeth are being abstracted for no good reason other than for pathology for a definitive treatment planning reason. This lecture will attempt to outline the reasons for and against extractions of teeth and replacements by implants. Long-term results up to 30 years have shown that in cases where the treatment planning has been thought out, based on good clinical evidential reasons, teeth have been maintained in health for many years.
