Description
Biological principles and outcomes with tissue level implants
The tissue level implant has a design that has been relatively unchanged for over 30 years. The implant design eliminates an interface at the bone level. This lecture will focus on the biological benefits of the tissue level design and provide long-term data on survival and success.
Clinical applications of tissue level implants for full arch rehabilitation
The tissue level implant has been utilised for full arch restorations for many years. This presentation will discuss the prosthetic pros and cons of using this model of implant and how it is utilised within the digital workflow.
