UNRAVELING THE CHOICE BETWEEN FP1 AND FP3 This lecture delves into the complexities of the All-on-X dilemma in full arch restorations, focusing on the choice between FP1 and FP3 prostheses. Participants will learn the optimal number of implants and bone reduction required for successful full arch reconstruction. The discussion will highlight the advantages, disadvantages, and considerations unique to FP1 and FP3 prostheses, enabling clinicians to make informed decisions tailored to individual patient needs. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of the factors influencing prosthesis selection, facilitating improved outcomes in full arch restorations.
Learn to:
investigate the optimal implant number and the amount of bone reduction essential for full arch reconstructions
compare FP1 and FP3 prostheses, evaluating their strengths, weaknesses, and suitability for different clinical scenarios
equip participants with the knowledge necessary to navigate the
All-on-X dilemma, enabling them to make informed decisions tailored to individual patient requirements for successful full arch restorations

THE SHORT IMPLANT SOLUTION AND SINUS ELEVATION WITHOUT BONE GRAFTING Over the last decade, the popularity of short implants has skyrocketed—but how predictable are they? This lecture will provide a comprehensive analysis of the literature regarding the definition and success of short implants in various clinical situations. Key clinical factors when considering the use of short implants will also be discussed. Additionally, we will provide a detailed examination of the scientific data and clinical steps regarding the placement of short implants in conjunction with sinus floor elevation in the atrophic posterior maxilla without bone grafting.
Learn to:
review the literature regarding clinical indications of short implants, as well as their success and survival rates
understand the evolving definition of short implants
review the effects of surface texture, implant diameter, thread pitch and crown to implant ratio as well as other key factors leading to the success of short implants
provide participants with an in depth step-by-step overview of the clinical placement of short implants especially combined with sinus floor elevation in the atrophic posterior maxilla, without any additional bone grafting
