CGDent webinar, Wednesday 29 January 2025, 7pm
The World Health Organisation classifies edentulism as a disability. This CGDent webinar unpacks the details of this disability, looking at both qualitative and quantitative research in this field. The quality of life of these individuals, both before and after all the teeth are lost, is discussed, along with treatment modalities, from the most commonly provided conventional complete dentures, to management with dental implants for both removable and fixed prosthodontic solutions.
The webinar is hosted by Dr Amin Aminian FCGDent, a Specialist in Prosthodontics and guest editor of the ‘Implant dentistry (part one)’ issue of the Primary Dental Journal, published in Autumn 2024.
Speaker:
- Dr Sarra Jawad, Consultant in Restorative Dentistry at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust.
Dr Sarra Jawad is the author of ‘The edentulous patient: the impact of implants on quality of life’, which was published in the ‘Implant dentistry (part one)’ issue of the Primary Dental Journal, in Autumn 2024.
