Prosthetic Considerations That Impact Single Implant Surgery and Restoration Design: Clinical Decision Tree and Digital Case Demonstration Junying Li, DDS, MS, PhD

Junying Li, DDS, MS, PhD

Prosthetic design is a crucial factor influencing the long-term success of implant treatments. This lecture will explore essential prosthetic considerations, with a focus on trans-mucosal contour design and its relationship to surgical techniques, abutment selection, and the restoration process. A clinical decision tree and cases utilizing a fully digital approach will be demonstrated.

Upon completion of this presentation, participants should be able to:
1) Identify the types of single implant abutment.
2) Design an implant crown contour that is both biologically sound and aesthetically correct.
3) Describe the process of immediate single implant loading with digitally pre-fabricated implant crown.
