Evidenced-based bone grafting and bone regeneration for implant therapy – Present-day procedures and materials used to augment treatment platforms and expand alveolar bone volume.
This discussion will focus on current trends in bone augmentation for the treatment of patients requiring dental implants. In addition, a systematic review of complications related to bone grafting will be discussed. The benefits of allogenic materials in both hard and soft tissue will be presented. New materials such as the Creos™ allograft and other innovative solutions will be headlined.

Choosing patient specific treatment options from analog to navigated surgery – my decision tree in daily routine
New innovations in guided and navigated surgery provide more options for dental implant treatment. Based on the clinical situation, as well as patient requirements, an array of highly reliable treatment options such as X-Guide and Trefoil will be discussed. Additionally, opportunities to treat a new patient segment will be demonstrated.
The X-Guide system is designed to consistently elevate precision and control in your dental implant surgeries. Interactive, turn-by-turn guidance gives you the ability to improve every movement of your handpiece during osteotomy preparation and implant delivery.
Trefoil is a breakthrough in treatment for the edentulous mandible. Restorative and laboratory workflows are completely streamlined by use of a standardized, guided approach for implant placement and a unique premanufactured bar, that enables a passive fit of the definitive prosthesis.
