CGDent on-demand webinar

As dental implants become increasingly mainstream in general practice, understanding their biomechanical principles is vital for long-term success. This webinar explores the key differences between natural teeth and implants, the implications for occlusal load management, and how restorative design choices influence biomechanical outcomes.

Objectives:

  • Comprehend the distinctions in (biomechanical) performance between natural teeth and implants.
  • Plan occlusion to minimise restorative or integration failure.
  • Identify long-term occlusal changes and their implications.

Outcomes:

  • You will gain an understanding of how to proficiently assess an implant restoration in relation to the current occlusal scheme and monitor the changes in dentition in relation to the occlusal forces exerted on the implant restoration over the long term.

Speakers:

  • Amin Aminian FCGDent, specialist in prosthodontics.
  • Shushil Dattani AssocFCGDent, implant surgeon and CGDent Recognised Mentor in Implant Dentistry
  • Anoup Nandra FCGDent, member of the College Council, principal dentist of a private practice, implant surgeon
