March 2011

Four days of intense
learning and training with
Dr. Sascha Jovanovic
Online dental institute, Global Institute for Dental Education
(gIDE), hosts four hands-on workshops per year at its training facility in Los Angeles. Topics covered
include soft-tissue management and
grafting around dental implants;
bone, ridge and socket grafting; and
sinus elevation and grafting.
This advanced implant and grafting workshop is a four-day handson clinical course developed by Dr.
Sascha A. Jovanovic, a periodontist
from Los Angeles and pioneer in
implant dentistry, bone regeneration and esthetic procedures. Jovanovic is also the course director
at UCLA CE, past president of the
EAO, author of more than 60 scientific publications and one textbook,
and is the editor in chief of Implant
Tribune.
The next workshop is planned for
June 15–18.
Clinicians can benefit from taking one, two or all four days at
gIDE’s Training Center. Day 1 is
composed of an interactive lecture
in the morning addressing flap
design and management, suturing
methods, soft-tissue autografts and
allografts, abutment design modifications, perio-implant papilla support and more.
During the second half of the day,
participants will practice on fresh
porcine maxilla models with the
latest implant designs, microsurgical hand instruments, filler materials, resorbable and non-resorbable
sutures and dermal allograft.
The second part of the course
consists of a two-day workshop
covering the latest techniques for
successful bone grafting in implant
placement, esthetic implant procedures and socket grafting. Two live
surgery cases will be demonstrated: a posterior case for ridge and
sinus augmentation purposes, and
an anterior esthetic case exhibiting
optimal implant placement and site
development. Participants will pracg IT page 7B

Recognizing implant dentistry’s global reach, the Academy of Osseointegration debuted an International Symposium to highlight clinical research, technology and treatment advances that may be unfamiliar to U.S.-based
practitioners during the AO’s 2011 Annual Meeting, which took place March 3–5, in Washington, D.C. For more

gIDE’s online lecture library expands
As part of gIDE’s mission statement, the Global Institute for Dental Education is dedicated to providing continuous new professional
development surrounding the everevolving field of dentistry. gIDE publishes new Online Lectures bi-monthly filmed in-house with professional
green screens and production equipment.
For its latest lecture on demand,
“Oral Plastic Surgery,” gIDE worked
with an expert in restorative dentistry,
Dr. Nelson Carranza. In many cases,
especially in implant dentistry, the
challenge still present today relies on
soft-tissue management. Periodontal
surgery is evolving to meet these chal-

lenges into a new concept termed
“oral plastic surgery.” Carranza filmed
two versions of this lecture, in English
and in Spanish.
Dr. Sam Strong, who has previously recorded nine lectures for gIDE,
most recently contributed “Treating
the Edentulous Arch with Removable
Implant Overdentures.” This presentation is the second of four modules
related to treating the fully edentulous
patient with removable overdentures.
It focuses on the use of a jaw relation
recording device (or tracing device),
which gives the clinician new accuracy in procuring centric relation.
“The Emergency Implant Immediate Extraction Replacement” is the

newest lecture from Dr. Jack Hahn, a
well-recognized pioneer in the field of
implant dentistry. Immediate extraction replacement is an option applied
when patients present themselves
with an un-restorable tooth, especially
in the esthetic zone where they want
something that will allow them to
engage in social situations without a
missing tooth.
gIDE has published more than
200 lectures online, while constantly
adding new and innovative content.
Access to these lectures is available
through DVD purchase, but gIDE’s
lecture library is most conveniently
utilized via the online membership.
Yearly subscription to this compre-

hensive library provides instant access
to scientific knowledge in the fastest
growing segments in dentistry. gIDE
is ADA certified and offers a growing
number of up to 200 continuing education credits.
Founded in 2003 by worldrenowned implant dentist, Dr. Sascha
A. Jovanovic, and colleagues, gIDE is a
private dental institute blending online
digital education with hands-on learning, dedicated to the advancement of
clinicians and the healthcare of their
patients worldwide. For additional
information regarding gIDE’s lectures

of the membership, visit www.gide

Sinus elevation and grafting are
the topics for the final part of this
all-encompassing clinical course. A
critical viewing of biological and
clinical aspects of sinus elevation
techniques, including the key elements for implant success, will be
presented. Participants will practice
lateral window approach, internal
sinus elevation using Osteotome
techniques and more on fresh goat

Dr. Leopold Weinstein, a general
practitioner from Camarillo, Calif.,
commented, “Dr. Jovanovic offers
the most complete and comprehensive program on bone, ridge and
socket grafting.”
A periodontist from Cerritos,
Calif., Dr. Phil Melnick said, “This
one-of-a-kind sinus hands-on course
raised my confidence level and success rate in sinus bone grafting and
has expanded my overall expertise
in these important procedures that I
now perform regularly.”

Introducing unique
patented dental implant
OsseoSpeed TX Profile
from Astra Tech:
anatomically designed
for sloped ridges
Astra Tech launches an anatomically designed implant for sloped
ridges called OsseoSpeed™ TX Profile. This uniquely shaped implant
eliminates the common compromise
between marginal bone levels and
esthetics in sloped alveolar ridge
situations.
The implant design meets a clinical need: it facilitates implant placement when there is a sloped ridge
and optimizes implant position to
maintain marginal bone support and
esthetics.
“The sloped design lets the
implant adapt to the anatomy rather
than letting the anatomy adapt to
the implant design; this works particularly well for placement in the
esthetic zone,” says Professor Dr.
Wilfried Wagner, of the Johannes
Gutenberg University Mainz, Department for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Germany.
As with all Astra Tech dental
implants, OsseoSpeed TX Profile has
all the key features of the well-documented Astra Tech BioManagement
Complex™, unique to the Astra Tech
Implant System.™
Due to the sloped neck of this dental implant, Astra Tech recommends
that dental professionals who use
this product have extensive implant
treatment knowledge.
