IMPLANT TRIBUNE
The World’s Dental Implant Newspaper · Canada Edition
April 2013 — Vol. 1, No. 2
www.dental-tribune.com
Clinicians gather in Bern to update
implant treatment ‘golden standard’
Findings from event,
held every five years
in Switzerland, to be
presented at International
Team for Implantology
annual conference
E
very five years, more than
100 leading clinicians and
academicians from across
the world gather at the International Team for Implantology Consensus Conference for three days of
debate. Participants identify and review in detail all of the clinically relevant issues in implant dentistry. The
statements and guidelines that emerge
from the debate are generally accepted
as a golden standard in implant dentistry and are basis for the ITI’s “Treatment Guide” series of publications.
It has been five years since the last
conference. The upcoming 2013 gathering — the organization's fifth — is
in Bern, Switzerland, from April 23–25.
Updated guidelines presented at
annual meeting
Following the three-day conference,
the resulting consensus statements,
treatment guidelines and clinical
recommendations will be presented
at the 2013 ITI Annual Conference,
Saturday, April 27, also in Bern. Meeting organizers describe the Saturday
meeting as being an opportunity for
implant dentistry professionals to
combine networking with catching up
on the latest information on best clinical practices in implant dentistry.
The ITI 2013 annual meeting is formally titled, “Treatment Guidelines
and Recommendations of the 5th ITI
Consensus Conference.”
With the rapid advances in clinical
techniques and biomaterials in the
field as well as new ideas and different
approaches, the meeting organizers
say that it is vital for clinicians to be
able to access up-to-date information
and clinical recommendations. To establish the series of consensus statements, the ITI Consensus Conference
participants evaluate the latest developments in the field.
At the Bern Consensus Conference,
five working groups led by Michael
Bornstein, Daniel Wismeijer, Dean
The Kursaal Bern, site of the International Team for Implantology annual conference, is unique in Switzerland. It comprises one of the country's
most modern congress and event venues, a hotel, numerous restaurants, a casino — and sweeping views of the capital city, Bern. This year's
meeting features results and recommendations from the fifth ITI Consensus Conference. Photo/Provided by Congress Center of the Kursaal
Morton, German Gallucci and Lisa
Heitz-Mayfield will discuss topics in
the following areas:
1) Contemporary surgical and radiographic techniques
2) Restorative materials and techniques for implant dentistry
3) Optimizing esthetic outcomes in
implant dentistry
4) Loading protocols in implant
dentistry
5) Prevention and management of
technical and biological complications.
At the annual conference on Saturday, scheduled topics cover such areas
as “Horizontal Ridge Augmentation in
Conjunction With, or Prior to, Implant
Placement in the Anterior Maxilla: A
Systematic Review,” “Screw vs. Cement
Retention: The Evidence for Stable
Outcomes,” “Prosthodontic Procedures to Optimize Esthetic Outcomes”
and “Implant Loading Protocols for
Fully Edentulous Patients With Fixed
Prostheses: A Systematic Review.”
Not just all work
Following Saturday's clinical program,
the organization hosts a gala dinner,
inviting attendees to “enjoy an excellent meal while listening to the featured vocal artist and round off the
evening with a couple of drinks at
the bar and a turn on the dance floor
while the live band plays at the Farewell Party for outgoing ITI President
Daniel Buser.”
The conference and associated events
will take place in the newly renovated
Congress Center of the Kursaal in the
Swiss capital city, situated at the base
of the Swiss Alps.
Save the date for ‘Knowledge is
Key’ in 2014
The next ITI Consensus Conference
won't be for another five years, but you
might want to start planning a trip to
Switzerland for a less-distant event —
the ITI World Symposium, April 24–26,
2014, in Geneva. “Knowledge is Key”
is the theme, and the agenda includes
some of the industry's top opinion
leaders. Attendees will be able to participate in a scientific program described as “challenging, with a strong
practice-oriented approach.”
The organization describes the gathering as "the most important event
in the implant dentistry calendar for
2014." For details on this and other ITI
events, visit www.iti.org.

Implant Direct is described as the company that revolutionized the implant industry by creating the valuepriced segment in 2006. But with its new online store,
it may soon be known as the company that dramatically
simplified how implants and auxiliary items are ordered.
Located at www.implantdirect.com, the online store introduces visitors to the latest products, resources and events
with an ever-changing homepage display (Fig. 1). Visual
selection charts lead clinicians or office staff through the
implant selection process, first by identifying the implant
system (Fig. 2) and then by choosing the correct diameter
and prosthetic platform (Fig. 3).
Once a site user is on the implant product page, the
compatible components, abutments, instruments, biologics and literature are just a click away. According to the
company, there’s no need to jump through different product categories or pages — with “All-in-1 Shopping,” everything
can be found all in one spot. The “simply smarter” system even
identifies the related items.
In addition, Implant Direct’s online store enables visitors to:
• View related 3-D graphic videos without interrupting shopping.
• Easily switch between different product images or zoom-in
for a close-up view.
• Compare the features and benefits between different products of interest.
• Move to different categories when desired via the global, top
navigation bar.
• Easily find Attachments International products and education opportunities in dedicated sections.
• Quickly navigate to products by using improved search capabilities and a new advanced-search option.

Expert Dental CE creates two new
restorative and esthetic modules
Courses address biggest reason for rejected insurance claims: poor, marginal fit
In keeping with its mission to provide
high-level online C.E. courses, Expert
Dental CE (www.expertdentalce.com) has
launched its first two modular programs
in restorative and esthetic advances.
Both modules are CERP approved.
“Our mission,” said Expert Dental CE Co-
Founder Dr. Frank Murphy, “is to provide
in-depth modules that give the learner
more than a superficial introduction to a
technique, while at the same time offering
material that is useful and practical.”
Module One (cost is $199 and the module is worth six C.E. credits, ) consists of the
following scholars and topics:
• Dr. Charles Goodacre on “How to
Achieve Excellent Marginal Fit & Cervical
Contour with Crowns.”
• Dr. Burney Croll on “Emergence Profiles in Natural Tooth Contour.”
• Dr. Jim Fine on “Crown Lengthening:
Dr. Charles
Goodacre
Dr. Jim Fine
Dr. Graz Giglio
Dr. Dennis
Tarnow
Dr. Mariano
Polack
Dr. Dean
Vafiadis
Ad
A Powerful Tool for Healthier Gums” and
Better Crowns.”
• Dr. Dennis Tarnow on “Periodontal and
Prosthetic Management of Furcated Teeth:
Parts I, II, III.”
“We created this module, in part, because
one of the single biggest reasons insurance claims are rejected by carriers is poor
marginal fit,” said Expert Dental CE’s other
co-founder, Dr. Alan Winter. “But that’s not
the only reason.” Winter also said that as
dentists gain more clinical experiences
through the years, they can become more
removed from their dental school education, and there is a great benefit to gain
from brushing up on the latest techniques
for everyday procedures. “As a practicing
periodontist,” he said, “I see greater value
in learning how to reduce the incidence
of periodontal disease and save dentitions
than in taking a course that requires four
surgeries and expensive biologics to grow
a papilla or 1 millimeter of bone.”
Newest theories in smile design
Module Two ($239 and worth 10 C.E. credits) features the following scholars and
topics:
• Dr. Graz Giglio on “A Review of Smile
Design Parameters” and “Achieving Aesthetic Laminate Veneers.”
• Dr. Mariano Polack on ”Understanding
Current All-Ceramic Systems.”
• Dr. Dean Vafiadis on “Computerized
Dentistry for Private Practice: Abutments,
Ceramics and Occlusion.”
Module Two carries Expert Dental CE’s
agenda forward by combining four lectures into a cohesive grouping that explores the up-to-date theories in smile
design, placing laminate veneers and
understanding the differences in ceramics
and the cements they require for the best
performance and esthetics. Also covered
in detail is the latest information available
for chairside CAD/CAM technologies for
single units and implants.
