Course Description

Implants

Implants are the standard of care for edentulous areas. A patient with implants is different from a patient with a natural dentition. Does the team understand the difference?

As more patients are seeking dental implants as viable restorative options, all members of the dental team should have a grasp of the role implants play in the maintenance of oral health. At times team members can be confused by the process and how implants differ from natural teeth. To maintain optimum health of the patient and the implant, team members need to understand how the patient and the dental professional can maintain the implant from the beginning of the implant process through its many components. Join in for a jam-packed overview of the implant process.

“The educational teaching methodology used in this course is live, interactive lecture presented via Zoom webinar with an accompanying PowerPoint presentation. Both the live webinar and the PowerPoint presentation incorporate a variety of audio and visual cues to enhance audience members’ understanding and retention of key concepts. In addition, question and answer periods are provided for at the conclusion of each section of the live webinar.”
