Description
The session introduces participants to beginning with the desired final prosthetic outcome and working backwards to determine the most appropriate implant position. Participants will learn to identify the ideal three-dimensional implant position and understand how implant positioning influences the emergence profile, occlusion, available prosthetic space, aesthetics, and overall restorative outcome.
Objectives
Through basic digital implant planning, participants will gain practical experience in evaluating
the proposed implant position and selecting an appropriate surgical and prosthetic approach. The
hands-on component will allow participants to place dental implants in models, reinforcing the
principles of angulation, depth, spacing, and three-dimensional positioning.
The session will also highlight the common clinical and prosthetic consequences of incorrectly
positioned implants, including compromised emergence profiles, difficulty achieving ideal
occlusion, inadequate prosthetic space, aesthetic limitations, challenging impression and scanning
procedures, and difficulties in achieving a predictable definitive restoration. The overall aim is to
develop an understanding of how accurate implant positioning is fundamental to predictable
surgical, prosthetic, and aesthetic outcomes.
