Replacing congenitally missing lateral incisors By Robert M. D’Orazio, DDS, FAGD, MIIF, ABOI/ID and Mark A. Iacobelli, DDS, FAGF, FICD, MIIF It is estimated that 6 percent of the American population, 18 million people, are congenitally missing a maxillary lateral incisor. To address this need, DMX Implant Corp., the dental implant division of Dentatus Ltd., has created a unique narrow body implant called the ANEW Implant System. ANEW is the only narrow diameter implant that accepts a screwretained abutment. This advantage affords prosthetic options unlike other narrow diameter implants. g IT page 7 ‘Ride the Wave to Success in Dentistry’ at winter conference 5 uPage 10 Vol. 6, No. 9 Industry products, services Collagen membranes, bone-grafting materials, more uPage 14-23 AAID turns 60 At annual meeting, group celebrates six decades of success and looks to future Sixty years ago, a small cadre of dental pioneers braved a firestorm of professional criticism and founded the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID) to stimulate research and training in implant dentistry and pave the way for eventual public and professional acceptance of implants as the preferred method for replacing missing teeth. This year, at its 60th annual scientific meeting, Oct. 19–22 in Las Vegas, AAID will celebrate six decades of achievement in dental implant education and look ahead to challenges in meeting surging global demand for implants. AAID’s meeting is highly regarded in the dental profession as an innovative forum and valuable resource for continuing education, product demonstrations and networking. More than 1,600 dentists, allied staff and exhibitors are expected to attend. The theme for the conference, to be held at Caesars Palace, is “Realities of Implant Dentistry: Stacking the Deck in Your Favor.” As always, the sci- Dental Tribune America 116 West 23rd St., Ste. 500 New York, NY 10011 EC The World’s Dental Implant Newspaper · U.S. Edition The 60th annual scientific meeting of the AAID will take place Oct. 19–22 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

A major highlight of the meeting will be the premiere showing of a documentary video, produced by AAID, tracing the academy’s history as told by the pioneers who made it. Dr. Norman Goldberg, AAID’s first president, now more than 90 years old, will introduce the video with current AAID President Joseph Orrico, DDS, during a plenary session. “What I believe is most compelling about AAID’s history is the courg IT page 2 AD PRSRT STD U.S. Postage PAID San Antonio, TX.

Another prominent and somewhat controversial topic in implant dentistry is early loading of dental implants. Jack A. Hahn, DDS, on Oct. 21, will instruct AAID members about when immediate load implants are appropriate in his main podium session titled “Implants for Immediate Function — Fact or Fiction.” Implants often are a key element for cosmetic dental restorations and contemporary facial rejuvenation procedures, such as Botox and injectable fillers, which are being used more frequently by dentists to maximize cosmetic outcomes. Most dentists, however, still are not aware of the considerable benefits these treatments offer for cosmetic dental treatment. In a workshop on Oct. 22, chaired by Pankaj Singh, DDS, conference attendees will learn that facial rejuvenation procedures are a natural and logical expansion for dental practices to help achieve optimal esthetic outcomes in cosmetic and restorative dental care. The AAID annual scientific meeting program also offers numerous clinical roundtable presentations for more intimate education in a small class environment and will feature live surgery beamed directly to the meeting venue. A mobile app for the meeting will also be available this year, allowing attendees to enhance their experience at the events and at the Implant World Expo.

IT AD[6] => 6 AO Annual Meeting Implant Tribune | February 2011 gIDE[7] => Industry Clinical Implant Tribune | September 2011 7 f IT page 1 The high success rate of narrow-body implants has expanded treatment options for both clinician and patient. Primarily, narrow-body implants can be placed into anatomically challenging areas that would be contraindicated for standard diameter implants without site modification procedures such as bone grafting and orthodontics. These procedures increase treatment time, cost to the patient and morbidity. This can deter the patient from dental implant therapy, thereby subjecting the patient to limiting his or her treatment plan to less definitive options such as “flipper” appliances, removable partial dentures or “bonded” and conventional bridges. In 2001, in conjunction with the NYU Department of Dentistry, DMX established a specific prosthetic protocol. In 2004, the FDA approved ANEW Implants for “long-term use or any length of time as determined by the health-care provider.” The low profile 3 mm head accommodates divergent angles offering natural-looking esthetics. The nonhygroscopic screw cap abutment facilitates fabrication of a fixed transitional restoration at the time of implant placement, thereby providing the patient with an immediate, predictable and cosmetic results. During the healing period, the restoration contours can be easily modified to the contours of the tissue architecture, thereby eliminating a final “black triangle” result. ANEW narrow diameter implants are minimally invasive and designed to fit into narrow spaces with implant diameters of 1.8, 2.2 and 2.4 mm respectively. The ANEW tapered one-piece implant design eliminates microgap-related crestal bone loss, facilitates one-stage surgery, provides immediate restoration and is more conducive to a flapless implant placement. Additionally, utilizing a minimally invasive flapless procedure with an immediate restoration eliminates many postoperative challenges as well as reduces total treatment time. ANEW narrow diameter implants have been tested with universitybased research from around the world. In 2007, Dr. Stuart Froum and his colleagues from the New York University Department of Implant Dentistry published a study in the International Journal of Perio and Restorative Dentistry stating: “40 Anew Implants in patients for one to five years postloading. No implant failures were reported, yielding a 100 percent survival rating.” In 2005, the Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants published Dr. Michael Rohrer’s histology study on Dentatus implants. Rohrer determined that the percentage of bone in contact with the body of Dentatus implants is in “the same range and sometimes higher than what is usually seen with conventional implants.” These results support wellknown literature about implant g IT page 9 Fig. 2: Pre-op site #7.

ANEW narrow-body dental implants are composed of Grade V, titanium alloy; the threaded portion of the implant is mechanically roughened to increase surface area and maximize the bone-implant interface; and the tapered design better facilitates implant placement, promotes initial implant stability and better distributes occlusal loads along the body of the implant. Predictably, ANEW implants have been placed in various places within the mouth with high success. Fig. 7: Six-months post placement #7. Fig. 8: Six-month post placement #10.

D’Orazio and Iacobelli) Case study A 15-year-old girl and her father came to the office for diagnosis and treatment planning as her orthodontic treatment was coming to an end. She presented with congenitally missing lateral incisors. Her orthodontic treatment had provided appropriate root separation of the cuspids and centrals as well as good esthetics during treatment. This was accomplished by having a prosthetic tooth #7 suspended from the archwire and retention of the upper left deciduous lateral incisor throughout the entire treatment course (Figs. 1-3). The treatment plan accepted was to proceed with the completion of the orthodontic treatment and debracketing (Fig. 4). That same day, the upper left deciduous lateral incisor was extracted and then ANEW implants were placed in the lateral incisor positions of #7 and #10. Once the ANEW implants were placed, an immediate fixed provisional crown was fabricated on each implant. They were then held in static occlusion as part of the orthodontic retention as well as to help provide initial stability for the ANEW implants during osseointegration (Figs. 5 and 6). It was clearly understood that as the still-growing patient would continue to mature, the provisional crowns would need to be removed IT About the authors Dr. Robert M.

This would easily be accomplished with the ANEW screw-retained abutment and provisional crown possibilities (Figs. 7-9). The final restorations supported by the ANEW Implants will be fabricated when the growth of the premaxilla is complete in about four to five years when the patient is between ages 19–20.

The convention will be held Jan. 25–29 at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center (BCEC). YDC is the fifth largest dental meeting in the United States and is sponsored by the Massachusetts Dental Society, in cooperation with the Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont dental associations. The 27,000 dental professionals who are expected to attend the convention in Boston will not only discover YDC 2012 to be educational, informative and fun, but also filled with entertaining events, top-notch speakers and more than 300 educational courses for dental professionals. A major highlight of this year’s meeting is a course being taught by Daniel Alam, MD, on Thursday, January 26, at 2 p.m. Dr. Alam is the current head of the Section of Facial Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery in the Head and Neck Institute at the renowned Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. He helped to make history in 2008 by being part of the multidisciplinary team who performed the first American near-total facial transplant. During Alam’s presentation, “Facial Transplantation Versus Conventional Reconstruction,” he will discuss the groundbreaking operation, including the basic scientific research, ethical considerations and technical challenges of such a procedure. The woman who received the transplant had suffered severe facial trauma and received a transplant of approximately 80 percent of her face. The procedure essentially replaced most of her entire face, except for her eyelids, forehead, lower lip and chin. Alam will also describe the advances in conventional microvascular reconstruction and the outcome limits of present surgical science in this field. In addition, back by popular demand for Yankee 2012, is live dentistry on the show floor, which allows attendees to see all-new live cuttingedge procedures.

The relationship with the European Federation of Periodontology, www.efp.net, is the most recent example of Consult-PRO’s commitment to worldwide patient and clinician education. True informed consent The governing bodies of dentistry are requiring more and more documentation. Was the patient provided with data to make an informed decision? Documenting informed consent or informed refusal is about protecting the dental professional and the dental patient. Proper documentation is paramount to the success of any modern dental practice. Consult-PRO has developed the complete informed consent solution. • Show 3-D consequences of non-treatment, different treatment options and various complications associated with different procedures. • Automatically document the exact date and time those procedures were shown to a particular patient. • Add notes in WordPad about what was specifically discussed with the patient. • Print brochures highlighting the details of the presentations shown and automatically document that they were printed and given to the patient. • E-mail 3-D presentations to the patient for him or her to watch at home with other family members or decision makers and document that you e-mailed those presentations. • Automatically document when the presentations were watched by the patient at home. Consult-PRO also gives you the ability to have the patient digitally sign to confirm that he or she has seen and understood everything that has been explained. We are living in a litigious society; we owe it to ourselves and our patients to ensure we are protected. Team building Consult-PRO isn’t just for the patient. It’s a team-building tool for the entire staff. Associates, hygienists, office managers and any other staff members can understand the common dental goals. The software also tracks which staff member showed or e-mailed which presentation to which patient. Consult-PRO helps make sure everyone in the dental office is delivering a clear and consistent message to the patient.

IT[19] => Implant Tribune | February 2011 Industry News 19 Osstell AB1[20] => 20 Products Implant Tribune | September 2011 BondBone aids socket preservation after extraction BondBone from MIS Implants Technologies offers a selfreinforced boneaugmentation product. (Photo/ Provided by MIS) AD MIS Implants offers new synthetic bone-graft material Tooth extraction without concomitant socket grafting can result in osseous deformities of the alveolar ridge, such as reduced height and width. This makes subsequent management of esthetics and implant placement very challenging. At the AAID To learn more, stop by the MIS Implants booth, No. 601, at the AAID Annual Meeting. MIS Implants Technologies recently introduced in the U.S. market a safe, synthetic bone-graft material, BondBone,™ that can be easily placed for socket preservation after extraction. BondBone is a biocompatible biphasic calcium sulfate in a granulated powder form. It is the only pure calcium sulfate graft material that can set in three to five minutes in the presence of blood and saliva without the need for additives or exothermic producing accelerators that affect the healing process. Calcium sulfate used to be considered just a bone space filler. We now know that it is much more. Studies have shown that calcium sulfate is biocompatible, biodegradable, osteoconductive, safe and nontoxic. It is hemostatic, it encourages angiogenesis in bony defects, and it enhances the release of BMPs into the site. Upon implantation into the defect, it dissolves into calcium and sulfate ions that combine with phosphate ions from body fluids to form calcium phosphate. This forms an osteoconductive lattice of biologic apatite that stimulates bone growth into the defect. When used on its own, BondBone is a highly effective material for small bony defects such as extraction sockets. When combined with other bone-grafts materials such as autografts, allografts and other granular bone-augmentation products, BondBone increases their binding properties, volume and effectiveness as bone grafts. BondBone is cementable and moldable, and the procedure time from the beginning of mix to completion can be accomplished in less than five minutes. Its putty-like mix for good bone-to-product contact enables the grafted area to be filled with vital bone, usually in three to four months. BondBone is a safe, synthetic bone-graft material. Its optimal properties facilitate a boneregeneration process that contributes to the success of future implant restorations.

(Photo/Provided by ACE) AD Expand your potential with NuOss XC™, an expandable bonegrafting composite from ACE Surgical Supply Company. This latest development in natural bone substitutes, like the other ACE NuOss products, supports bone growth in periodontal and oral maxillofacial defects. NuOss XC is a composite grafting material composed of mineralized de-proteinated bovine granules and purified type I bovine collagen. When it is placed into a bleeding site, the material expands to a predetermined size and shape. At the AAID To hear more, stop by the ACE Surgical booth, Nos. 203/205, at the AAID Annual Meeting. NuOss XC is available in two forms: socket and sinus forms. Both are easy to place, prevent particle migration and save time. The NuOss XC Socket comes preloaded into a delivery syringe for placement into extraction cavities. NuOss XC Sinus is placed without pre-hydration into the sinus cavity after successful elevation of the sinus membrane. Expansion occurs via contact with blood or by hydration with sterile saline after implantation, allowing the NuOss XC to fill the entire defect. NuOss XC is offered in two sizes: NuOss XC Socket expands to 6 mm x 15 mm and 9 mm x 15 mm. NuOss XC Sinus expands to 17 mm x 10 mm and 22 mm x 12 mm.
