The Melbourne Dental School in conjunction with Noble Biocare is proud to present: 

Immediate Implant Placement and Provisionalisation in the Aesthetic Zone: Mastering the Surgical and Prosthetic Parameters 

This comprehensive two-day course is comprised of interactive lectures and hands-on training.  Lectures will cover the following topics:

• Implant loading times and their differentiating factors
• Patient selection for immediate placement and loading
• Scientific evidence regarding soft tissue biotype
• Diagnosis and treatment planning tools
• Effects of implant design and prosthetic connection
• Aspects of the surgical procedure (including ideal implant 3-D positioning)
• Optimal provisionalisation and final restorations
• Key factors enabling successful long-term outcomes     

Day one of this program consists of a full day lecture covering scientific rational and considerations for immediate placement and provisionalisation. Day two of the program focuses on practising the clinical skills required to successfully execute the procedure under supervision of the presenters.  A patient surgery live demonstration is planned for the beginning of day two to provide participants with real time insight on the sequencing and surgical protocol.

Participants have the option to attend day one comprising of lectures, or both days comprising of lectures and hands-on sessions. Please note that the hands-on day cannot be completed on its own.

Major Topics:

• Implant loading protocols
• Patient selection for immediate placement and loading
• Treatment planning considerations to facilitate immediate loading
• Surgical and prosthetic considerations for immediate loading
• Soft tissue management for improved stability and aesthetics

At the conclusion of this course participants should:

• Understand the scientific literature supporting immediate placement and immediate loading protocols
• Have adequate knowledge of the advantages of the technique
• Discuss aspects enabling successful functional and aesthetic long-term outcomes
• Plan for this treatment protocol in dental clinics
• Apply the clinical skills to enable this protocol (if attending hands-on component)

Hands-on component includes:

• 3 dimensional implant positioning in anatomical models
• Temporary prosthesis fabrication
• Soft tissue harvesting on models.
