In addition to a comprehensive continuing education program featuring
hundreds of opportunities ranging from
hands-on workshops to all-day educational tracks, there’s the exhibit hall,
where nearly 400 companies are presenting some of the latest and most innovative products and services available
in the dental industry.

Education in spades
By Kristine Colker, Dental Tribune

If there is one problem with the 101st
Thomas P. Hinman Dental Meeting, it
would have to be that there are so many
educational opportunities, it is difficult
to know where to look first. With more
than 220 courses, including more than
60 hands-on workshops, there is something for everyone and on every topic
imaginable — from Botox and dermal
fillers to social media and pharmacology.
A highlight on Thursday was the “1-on1 at the 101” sessions with Drs. Lee Ann
Brady, Randy Huffines, Jeffrey Okeson

and Jeffrey Rouse. Attendees were able
to meet with these clinicians and ask
questions, discuss case studies and learn
information not shared during their lectures.
Of special interest today is the return
of Dr. Peter Dawson to the Hinman Dental Meeting. Dawson, along with Dr. John
Cranham, the clinical director of The
Dawson Academy, will present the sixhour course, “Timeless Principles in Restorative Dentistry,” starting at 8:30 a.m.
For more information about all the
educational opportunities available, pick
up the Hinman Dental Meeting official
program.

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

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

The Inclusive® Tooth Replacement Solution was developed by Glidewell Laboratories as a complete, prosthetically
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).
When utilizing the comprehensive
range of Inclusive Digital Treatment
Planning services, the clinician has absolute and precise control of each step.
The clinician has control of the four dimensions of implant placement in the
esthetic zone, creating a consistently predictable result.
