Course objective
The aim of this 3-Series course is to outline a systematic approach to prosthetic rehabilitation and help the clinician to confidently address comprehensive treatment involving bridges, crowns, veneers and onlays on natural dentition and on implants, from a single restoration to full-mouth rehabilitation.
Abstract
The application of a tried and tested system, experimented for over 25 years, represents, especially for complex rehabilitations,
an indispensable means of achieving optimal final results, from the esthetic as well as biological and functional viewpoints.
The prosthetic treatment plan must allow an ideal integration of esthetics, biological and functional requirements on natural teeth
and on implants. The esthetic analysis, thanks to a simple and systematic approach to assessing facial, dento-labial, phonetic, dental
and gingival factors, will allow to optimize the prosthetic treatment plan.
To this end, after filling in the esthetic checklist, the laboratory checklist is employed, a device as functional as it is indispensable for
communicating with the dental technician in an exhaustive and effective manner. The scrupulous compilation of this checklist will allow
the clinician to specify clearly any request and modification, in order to create an ideal diagnostic wax-up. Containing all the variations
necessary for optimizing the results of the rehabilitation, the laboratory checklist will consequently ensure the development
of a provisional restoration that can be fitted into the mouth in the same position as the technician intended it in the articulator.
Biofunctional provisionals serve as blueprint s for the definite prosthesis providing all information about shape, position, emergence
profiles, arrangement of teeth and non-destructive occlusion especially in challenging clinical situations. Material selection with the dental
ceramist is fundamental in management of complex rehabilitation cases with porcelain crowns, bridges, implant abutments and veneers.
The use of metal-free ceramic materials allows to achieve excellent esthetic results in the anterior area for crowns and veneers fabrication. Nowadays an innovative operative protocol allows to face highly compromised clinical situations, with a minimally invasive prosthetic
procedure (MIPP) that guarantees an excellent, long lasting esthetic result and a better acceptance of the treatment by the patient.
Clinical and technical suggestions for obtaining esthetic and durable results will be supplied.
