Implant Seminar with Dr. Mark Montana at The Legacy Club at Woodcrest

The placement and restoration of dental implants into the biologic network of remaining teeth is neither assimilation nor invasion, but rather like the awkward intrusion of an obdurate guest. Although

the mimicry of natural teeth may be convincing, the implant complex is unyielding and static, surrounded by a matrix that continually evolves. Understanding that the restoration of today may be unsatisfactory or inadequate tomorrow, the clinician and patient benefit by a restorative workflow that maximizes the quality of the restoration and allows for correction as time passes. This

presentation will focus on the challenges we encounter with a single implant restorations and will discuss the solutions to provide

excellent restoration of implants which incorporates: function, esthetics, health, durability and retrievability.

At the conclusion of this course attendees will understand:

• Why the contact is lost, did we do something wrong?
• The potential consequences of open contacts
• Solutions for dealing with complications of single tooth implants
