ITI Academy module: Biological Principles of Bone Grafting
Learning material: Lti
Description
A prerequisite for a successful implant treatment is that the implant is placed with primary stability and successfully integrates into the jaw bone in a prosthodontically driven, predetermined position. For osseointegration of the implant to take place, it is essential that the living bone be treated carefully during the procedure to place the implant. Clinicians therefore need to understand the composition and nature of living bone before undertaking dental implant procedures.

ITI Academy module: Role of Implants in Dentistry
Learning material: Lti
Description
Tooth loss is one of the most common disabilities affecting mankind, and is a consequence of dental diseases, tumors of the orofacial region and trauma. Missing teeth may also occur because of agenesis.
The extent of missing teeth can vary, from single teeth in the anterior region of the jaws, single teeth in posterior segments, extended edentulous spaces and edentulism. This may result in functional, esthetic and phonetic impairment for the individual concerned.
Missing teeth have an enormous impact on the psychosocial well-being of these individuals, and as such, dentists have an important role in assisting these individuals to improve the quality of their lives.
ITI Academy module: Implant-Supported vs. Conventional Fixed Dental Prostheses - Comparison and Outcomes
Learning material: Lti
Description
There are many conventional fixed treatment options that can be considered for the replacement of missing teeth. They include Fixed Dental Prostheses or FDPs, fixed cantilever FDPs and resin-bonded FDPs.
The choice of treatment option should take into account the patient's wishes and perceived needs.
Treatment planning should be prosthodontically driven. When more than one prosthodontic option is possible, the treatment outcomes published in the scientific literature should be considered and used as a factor in advising the patient on the most suitable option.
This module will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of conventional fixed treatment options for replacing missing teeth and compare their published treatment outcomes and indications with those of implant-supported prostheses.
ITI Academy module: Tissue Integration of Dental Implants
Learning material: Lti
Description
This module focuses on the concept of dental implant integration into the soft and hard tissues in the oral cavity.
Integration into bone is called osseointegration and this phenomenon essentially revolutionized how missing teeth can be replaced.
Osseointegration has implications for all dentists as well as for patients with any missing teeth. Implants are anchored in bone tissue and penetrate the soft tissue.
ITI Academy module: Implant Designs and Characteristics
Learning material: Lti
Description
Patients desire teeth that are in good health, with good function, esthetics, and phonetics.
When indicated for missing teeth, dental implants are a means to fulfill these requirements.
This Learning Module will outline the implant design features and characteristics that are aimed at facilitating integration with the hard and soft tissues, allowing them to serve as anchorage elements for prosthetic reconstructions whilst also withstanding occlusal loading forces.
ITI Academy module: Minimally Traumatic Extraction Techniques
Learning material: Lti
Description
The use of implant-supported dental prostheses to replace missing teeth has resulted in a renewed focus on extraction techniques, particularly in the esthetic zone.Removing the tooth without damaging the alveolar socket can facilitate post-operative healing, ridge preservation techniques and subsequent implant placement.This module will describe the techniques to remove a hopeless tooth with implant placement in mind.
ITI Academy module: Healing of the Extraction Socket
Learning material: Lti
Description
Following tooth extraction, a well-described process of wound healing takes place in the extraction socket.
A series of physiological events occur, resulting in wound healing and bone regeneration within the socket. Bone resorption results in external changes to the alveolar ridge.
The outcome of this resorption is most often a significant modification of the pre-extraction outline of the alveolar ridge, which may present a problem for later prosthetic reconstruction.
For this reason, a knowledge of the healing events following tooth extraction is essential for appropriate prosthodontically driven implant treatment planning.
This module will present anatomic characteristics of the alveolar bone and extraction socket and will describe the histologic and dimensional changes following tooth extraction.
ITI Academy module: Flap Closure
Learning material: Lti
Description
Multiple factors influence the success of implant surgery. These include careful treatment planning, a command of the basic surgical techniques common to all oral surgery procedures, and the ability to perform these procedures atraumatically.
One such procedure is closure of any soft tissue flaps that were elevated during surgery. The aim of flap closure is to reposition the soft tissues in a good anatomical position.
Satisfactory closure of surgical wounds promotes healing and reduces complications such as wound breakdown, dehiscence, and infection.
These factors play an important role in achieving successful and esthetic surgical outcomes.
This module will focus on flap closure for oral surgery related to implant procedures.
ITI Academy module: Ridge Preservation Techniques
Learning material: Lti
Description
The alveolar process of the jaw develops along with the eruption of teeth, ongoing root formation, and subsequent growth.
The alveolar bone, periodontal ligament, cementum, and tooth constitute a developmental unit, as they form together.
The dimension of the alveolar process differs significantly among the various regions of the jaw, with the tooth type correlating to the size of the alveolar process.
Genetic factors may also play a role in determining the alveolar process dimension.
The alveolar process is composed of two types of bone: the alveolar bone proper (known histologically as bundle bone) and the supporting bone.
The bundle bone comprises the inner portion of the alveolar socket while the remaining part of the alveolar process consists of supporting bone.
The bundle bone is a periodontal tissue similar to cementum that connects the periodontal ligament to the alveolar bone.
When a tooth is removed, the developmental unit is altered, and the alveolar process resorbs.
ITI Academy module: Transitional Prostheses Used During Implant Therapy
Learning material: Lti
Description
Transitional prostheses play an important role in replacing missing teeth during implant therapy, up to the point when the implants are ready to be restored.
Implant therapy often involves several clinical and laboratory stages, and transitional prostheses seek to ensure that the patient is comfortable on both an esthetic and a functional level throughout the duration of treatment.
Transitional prostheses also have important diagnostic functions, and they can be a key factor in achieving patient satisfaction with the definitive treatment outcome.
There are a number of options for transitional prostheses, both fixed and removable.
ITI Academy module: Timing of Implant Placement after Tooth Extraction
Learning material: Lti
Description
When patients request dental implant treatment or are identified as candidates for implant therapy, they often present with failing teeth that need to be removed or have recently been extracted. Once a tooth has been removed, dynamic physiological and dimensional changes take place during the healing phase that may influence the choice of the best time to place an implant. These dimensional changes are clearly visible in the clinical situation of the site eight weeks after tooth extraction. There are several time points following tooth extraction that may be considered for the placement of dental implants. Each time point has advantages and disadvantages. The clinician is in a unique position to be able to prescribe the time for implant placement following tooth extraction in order to maximize the advantages and to achieve successful long-term outcomes. An understanding of the factors that are important in determining the timing of implant placement is an essential part of the treatment planning process. These factors will be presented in this module.
ITI Academy module: Selecting an Implant System
Learning material: Lti
Description
Since the introduction of dental implants, research has demonstrated that the clinical effectiveness of implant-supported prostheses equals or surpasses the performance of conventional fixed or removable prosthetic therapy.
The scientifically documented success of implants has led to the development of many different implant designs, materials, surface technologies, and surgical methods.
Numerous companies manufacture and market implant systems, and most of these systems include implants of more than one design.
At present there are well over 2,000 different implant designs available worldwide. Moreover, some of these systems include prosthetic components designed to be compatible only with implants from the same manufacturer.
Therefore, choosing an implant system requires careful consideration.
This Module will review the various factors that should influence the clinician's selection of the most appropriate system for their patients.
