Vol. 6, No. 4
International
Implantology Week
Immediate
restoration
in the fully
edentulous
maxilla region
By Max J. Cohen, DDS,
This clinical case required optimal implant placement based upon a
restoratively driven treatment plan and
guided surgery. To achieve this goal,
we made use of CT scans, SimPlant
planning software, the new Zimmer
guided surgery instrumentation and
the new Materialise Dental Immediate
Smile model.
The patient was a 49-year-old white
female in good health, completely
edentulous in the maxilla and wearing a complete upper denture. On the
lower, she wore an implant-retained
overdenture.
The planning phase for the case
began with a CT scan utilizing the
i-Cat and the Materialise Dental Dual
Scan protocol. The patient’s existing
denture was transformed into a scan
prosthesis by gluing eight Dual Scan
Markers (Materialise Dental) on the
surface. A radiolucent bite index was
made to secure the prosthesis in the
correct position.
The patient was scanned in the
i-Cat 17-19 while wearing the convert
prosthesis and the bite index. In a
second scan, the convert prosthesis
was scanned alone. The resulting CT
data were loaded into SimPlant, and
the scan prosthesis was superimposed
upon the study using the SimPlant Dual
Scan wizard (Fig. 1).
Using SimPlant, the optimum
implant positions were determined
based upon available bone, a minimum of 3 mm between implants, and
the design of the final restoration (Fig.
2). The resulting treatment plan was
submitted to Materialise Dental for fabrication of a SurgiGuide and a Materialise Dental Immediate Smile model.

Dentists from around the world attend
New York University College of Dentistry event
By Fred Michmershuizen, Online Editor
Approximately 300 dentists from
28 countries gathered at New York
University College of Dentistry March
14 to 18 for International Implantology Week, a continuing education
event offering experienced practitioners of dental implantology the
opportunity to further their knowledge and expertise. The program
was organized and hosted by Zimmer Dental and NYU College of Dentistry.
“It is an exciting time to be a dentist and an implantologist,” said Dr.
Hom-Lay Wang, who served as clinical chair for the week-long, interactive event. “Dental implantology
stands poised on a threshold of rapid
change and essential innovation, and
treatment modalities continue to
evolve and upgrade. For us to ensure
future success and the betterment
of our patients, it is imperative to
stay at the forefront of cutting-edge
techniques and technologies through
symposiums such as this one.”
The specific topics, which were
presented by some of the world’s
leading experts, included effective case management, esthetics,
traditional implants vs. one-piece
implants, sinus lift procedures and
recent technological innovations
including trabecular metal and vertical bone techniques and procedures
— in short, all of the kinds of issues
intended to keep participants on the
forefront.

Dr. Philippe Russe offered the keynote lecture on navigating narrow
spaces in the esthetic zone. Other
lecture highlights included Dr. Zeev
Ormainer on the Tapered ScrewVent Implant; Dr. Maurizio Tonetti on
mucogingival tissue management in
periodontal and implant therapy; Dr.
Richard Kraut’s presentation on vertical bone augmentation; and Wang’s
presentation on recent advances in
sinus lift augmentation.
Also speaking were Dr. Joseph
Massad on treatment options for the
edentulous patient; Dr. Henry Salama
on abutment protocol in implant therapy; Dr. Edgard El Chaar on advanced
socket-preservation techniques and
materials; Dr. Katya Archambault on
advanced tissue grafting techniques;
Dr. Paul Petrungaro on localized ridge
augmentation with allogenic block
grafts; and Dr. Markus Schlee on early
clinical experience with a new porous
material.
The audience for the event was
composed primarily of practicing clinicians from around the world —
those who already possessed established competencies in implantology
but who were seeking to further their
skills and expertise.
Of course, no advancements in the
ability to treat patients would be possible without the best possible equipment. That’s why, between lectures,
meeting participants visited tables in
the lobby displaying Zimmer Dental’s various offerings, which cover
the gamut from surgical products to
regenerative materials to restorative
tools.
According to Michael Collins, vice
president of research, development
and education for Zimmer Dental, the
symposium offered participants an
opportunity to experience new products and see where things are going.
Even more importantly, he said, the
week offered attendees the opportunity to stay on the cutting edge.
“If it weren’t for International Implantology Week, it would be
impossible to find this kind of education all in one place,” Collins said.
Wang said that in addition to offering an unparalleled learning opportunity, the event also offered attendees
the chance to expand their horizons
by making global contacts.
Attendees were able to bond with
each other during breaks for meals,
and during the welcome reception
and opening dinner at the Sheraton
Ballroom.
The week concluded with a closing
dinner at Brasserie 8 ½ in Midtown
Manhattan. IT

AD
The Global Institute for Dental
Education’s (gIDE’s) one-year master
clinician program in implant dentistry
just wrapped up its second session
in Athens, Greece, where students
spent four days learning all aspects
of soft-tissue management and grafting before, during and after implant
placement. Leading the lectures and
hands-on workshops was gIDE’s faculty, Dr. Egon Euwe and Dr. Stavros
Pelekanos.
Day one of the session covered
topics ranging from periodontal considerations to minimally invasive softtissue techniques.
Euwe
demonstrated
optimal
implant placement during the live surgery on day two. The students got their
feet wet on day three with a hands-on
workshop in upper porcine models
highlighting different soft-tissue management and grafting procedures.
The session came to a close on day
four with Pelekanos conducting the
final workshop on framework fit.
As a program requirement, the students each presented a case out of
their practice on an implant treatment
plan for the posterior zone with minimum of one implant placement.
At gIDE’s next session, the third,
students will present an additional
case on a treatment plan for the anterior zone with minimum of one implant
placement and moderate bone and/or
soft-tissue grafting.
This master program in Greece is
just one of six programs gIDE conducts each year in implant dentistry.
Another session two began the first
week of March in Tokyo, Japan, led
by LLU Professor in Restorative and
Implant Dentistry Dr. Joseph Kan, Dr.
Y Matsushita and Dr. Sascha Jovanovic via live broadcast, and the following week in Beijing, China, with
Professor Paul Lin and Dr. Keng Mun
Wong. At the end of March more second sessions occurred in both Australia with Euwe and Dr. Glen Liddelow,
and North America with Jovanovic
and Dr. Harel Simon.
All six programs will come together
in September for a final week at UCLA
in California. Students will receive a
gIDE Master Program Certificate and
a UCLA Certificate in Implant Dentistry for all their hard work.
gIDE was founded in 2003 as a private dental institute blending online
digital education with hands-on learning. Its founders, world-renowned
implant dentist, Jovanovic and colleagues, are dedicated to the advancement of clinicians and the healthcare of their patients worldwide. It is
the No. 1 academically ranked online
dental education institute with an
elite group of 102 faculty members
published in more than 2,000 peerreviewed journals. gIDE is a certified provider of ADA CERP continuing
education credits.

I received the Immediate Smile
model, which contained a duplicate
of the scan prosthesis, a bone model
with a silicone soft tissue, and a mucosa-supported SurgiGuide. The bone
model came with eight openings corresponding to each of the eight implant
positions as designed in the SimPlant
plan and corresponding exactly in size
to the dimensions of Zimmer analogs.
The bone model comes with a screw
fixation system, which allows me to
recover the analogs. The silicone soft
tissue on the model also corresponds to
the realistic soft tissue. I also received
written drilling instructions and a prolongation report detailing the depth
and size of each osteotomy.
Zimmer analogs were placed in the
Immediate Smile model (Fig. 3). The
duplicate of the scan prosthesis was
used to mount the bone model with
the soft tissue on an articulator (Fig. 4),
giving correct orientation and vertical
dimension. This made it possible to
fabricate a provisional that would be
used for immediate loading following
implant placement.
The mounted model was then used
to create an orientation jig for the
SurgiGuide (Fig. 5). The jig assures
that the SurgiGuide is positioned in
the mouth exactly the same way as the
scan prosthesis was positioned in the
mouth.
This is a very important step for
a mucosa-supported SurgiGuide
because of the flexibility of the soft
tissue (mucosa). Both the duplicate of
the prosthesis and SurgiGuide fit perfectly onto the Immediate Smile model,
allowing for fabrication of an accurate
orientation jig on an articulator.
The surgical guide was placed in
the patient’s mouth, and the tissue
was punched utilizing a tissue punch
(Figs. 6–8). Then the surgical guide
was again oriented in her mouth with
the orientation jig created on the articulator and stabilized with three SurgiGuide fixation screws (Fig. 9). Utilizing
the Zimmer Guided Surgery Instrumentation and guided surgery drills
(Fig. 10), all eight osteotomies were
created and completed using minig IT page 13B

The right and left molar (#3 and
#14) osteotomies were created short
of the maxillary sinus. Then using the
new Zimmer Sinus Crestal Approach
(SCA) sinus lift kit, I extended these
two osteotomies into the left and
right maxillary sinuses. Alloplas-
tic bone (Puros) was placed into the
sinus cavity through the osteotomy
and spread using the paddle-shaped
spreading bur. Then all eight implants
were placed. Each had initial stability
exceeding 35 ncm.
The decision was made to immediate load only the six implants that did
not involve the sinus cavity. Therefore, healing heads were placed on

A postoperative CT scan showed
how accurately the eight implants
were placed in the bone using a
mucosa-supported SurgiGuide with

The accuracy and success of this

The surgical guide allowed for
minimally invasive surgery and greatly
reduced time of surgery. The Immediate Smile also reduced chair time by
allowing for fabrication of the temporaries well in advance of surgery. IT
