lways a highlight in any exhibit hall, free handouts, free
samples, free drawings, free
trial offers and special pricing
are abundant at CDA Presents.
Walking down just a few aisles enables
an attendee to quickly fill a bag with
brochures, trinkets, samples and more.

booth has CDA Presents special offers to
help you decide to buy.
It’s hard to miss the aroma of fresh
popcorn wafting from booth No. 919,

sold-out ‘The Art of Endodontics: A
Hands-On Workshop’ on Friday morning.

Implant position
in the esthetic zone
By Siamak Abai, DDS, MMedSc
Since the advent of modern root form
osseointegrated implant dentistry in
1952, clinicians have strived for improvements in implant positioning in the esthetic zone to achieve predictable restorative and esthetic results.
Years of clinical experience in congruence with controlled clinical studies have helped establish parameters as
a guide for these results. Establishing a
treatment plan and clinical protocol prior to implant placement is paramount.
Treatment planning traditionally begins with comprehensive medical and
dental evaluations, articulated diagnostic casts, radiographs, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans and
a diagnostic wax-up. Patient demands
must be taken into consideration prior to
surgery, and pre-surgical mockups may
be necessary to convey the information
to the patient.
The advancement of CBCT technology
has led dentistry into a new realm of
dimensional accuracy. In combination
with the use of a surgical or guided stent,
proper 3-D positioning of an implant has
led to more accurate clinical results.
The importance of the implant position can be manifested in the four
dimensionally sensitive positioning
criteria: mesiodistal, labiolingual and
apico-coronal location, as well as implant angulation.1 The ultimate goal is
not only to avoid sensitive structures,
but to respect the established biological
principles to achieve esthetic results.
Mesiodistal criteria
Correct implant position in a mesiodistal
orientation allows the clinician to avoid
damaging adjacent critical structures. A
minimum distance of 1.5 mm between
implant and existing dentition prevents
damage to the adjacent teeth and provides proper osseointegration and gingival contours2–4 (Fig. 1a).
Distances of less than 3 mm between
two adjacent implants leads to increased
bone loss and can reduce the height of
the inter-implant bone crest. A distance
of more than 3 mm between two adjacent implants preserves the bone, giving
a better chance of proper interproximal
papillary height (Fig. 1b).
Labiolingual criteria
An implant placed too far labially can
cause bone dehiscence and gingival recession while an implant placed too far
lingually can cause prosthetic difficulties. A thickness of 1.8 mm of labial bone
is critical in maintaining an implant
soft-tissue profile5 (Fig. 2).
Labially oriented implants compromise the subgingival emergence profile

Replacement Solution, stop by the Glidewell Laboratories booth, No. 1328.
development, creating long crowns and
misalignment of the collar with respect
to the adjacent teeth.6
Apico-coronal criteria
Peri-implant crestal bone stability plays
a critical role in the presence of interdental papilla.7 Implants placed too shallow
may reveal the metal collar of the implant through the gingiva. Countersinking implants below the level of the crestal bone may give prosthetic advantages
but can lead to crestal bone loss.
The ideal solution would be the placement of an implant equicrestal or subcrestal to the ridge. However, the existing
microgap at the implant abutment junction leads to bone resorption because of
peri-implant inflammation.8 It is suggested an implant collar be located 2 mm
apical to the CEJ of an adjacent tooth if no
gingival recession is present9 (Fig. 3).

Implant angulation
Implant angulation is particularly important in treatment planning for screwretained restorations. Implants angled too
far labially compromise the placement
of the restorative screw while implants
angled too far lingually can result in unhygienic and unesthetic prosthetic design.
For every millimeter of lingual inclination, the implant should be placed an additional millimeter apically to create an
optimal emergence profile.10 In general,
implant angulation should mimic angulation of adjacent teeth (Fig. 4). Furthermore, maxillary anterior regions require
a subtle palatal angulation to increase
labial soft-tissue bulk.11

driven method of restoring missing
dentition. The solution is composed of
treatment planning, implant placement,
patient-specific temporization and the
definitive restoration (Figs. 5a–5f).

Making digital dental
restoration technology
an easier experience
E4D and Henry Schein
launch E4D NEVO Scanner
and Design Center

Ad
E4D Technologies (formerly D4D Technologies), an award-winning developer
of digital technologies for dentistry, and
Henry Schein Inc. are showing the new
E4D NEVO™ Scanner and Design Center
Here in San Francisco
To see the E4D NEVO Scanner and Design Center,
stop by the E4D Technologies booth, No. 2210.
here at CDA Presents in San Francisco.
Available exclusively in the United
States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand from Henry Schein, the E4D NEVO
Scanner and Design Center enhances the
ease-of-use of digital dental restorations
for the benefit of the patient and the
practitioner and represents a new level
of precision, proficiency and productivity versus prior E4D systems, according
to E4D.
The NEVO Scanner technology is based
upon years of experience with powderfree image capture in the intraoral environment and is the first scanner to use
E4D’s patent-pending blue laser technology, which provides exceptional quality of data capture, video-rate speed and
ease of use, according to the company.
In addition, the solid-state NEVO Scanner incorporates many other advances
including fog-free scanning, ergonomic
design for easy positioning, removable
tips for infection control, active heat
dissipation for full-arch scanning, colorcoded feedback to operator and an adjustable field of view.
The new E4D NEVO Design Center is
a powerful laptop computer that uses
high-speed Thunderbolt™ technology*
with the NEVO Scanner to provide more
energy and double the bandwidth of USB
3 connections.
The new system also gives the practitioner increased flexibility and portability. Dentists can move the E4D NEVO
Design Center from operatory to operatory, or even among multiple offices, all
while wirelessly connected to the milling
center.
“The E4D NEVO Scanner and Design
Center represents what we call the ‘Natural EVOlution’ of digital dentistry,” said
Mark Quadling, CEO of E4D Technologies. “We’ve combined the latest technologies to create an even easier-to-use
restoration experience. With NEVO, we
believe doctors have the potential to further improve the quality, fit and predictability of restorations, affording the patient a great outcome and strengthening
the practitioner’s clinical offering.”
“Henry Schein is proud to be the exclusive partner of E4D in bringing this exciting new technology to market,” said Tim
Sullivan, president, Henry Schein North
American Dental Group.
“We believe in a patient-centric approach to clinical care, and the new E4D
NEVO Scanner and Design Center greatly
enhances the benefits of digital dentistry
for the patient, which in turn will enhance the practice of our customers. We
fully expect that the E4D NEVO system
will drive increased demand for digital
dentistry, for the new user as well as for
those customers who upgrade their systems.”
