Gotta graft those gaps. Implant surgery has come a long way over the years along with improved surgical techniques. Even though bone graft is not required for these implants to osseointegrate it is a must for ideal healing and to preserve the patients existing gingival architecture with minimal soft and hard bone remodeling.
Here are two…

Hi, I placed an immediate implant on #31 with cover screw (final torque at 35Ncm) but my suture loosen up and most of the graft/membrane came out in 2 days. Can I go back and graft it or it’s best to replace it? Thank you.

Thanks for the post William! I think in this case, you should plan a GBR like @restoredsmiles suggested. Also, the shorter implants are the way to go here so you still have 2mm safety zone before the nerve canal!

Happy 4th of July to you ALL! I was the first dentist this patient had ever seen in his life and he was 82 years old. I was shocked this patient had this many teeth but unfortunately they all had to be extracted on a path to get this patient healthier.
Let’s make sure we emphasis and education the importance of dental hygiene and continued…

the fact he held on to as many teeth without a dental visit is amazing.

Reply to Mandibular 3 units posterior space with limited bone dimension
More lingual placement on 47 and site 45 looks very narrow so may have the most predictable outcome performing GBR in area prior to placement and I would go with shorter implants to allow more subcrestal placement which will also allow more restorative space. I also typically prefer individual implants but in this case an implant bridge may…

Happy Thursday! Here’s some full arch action to get your juices flowing into the weekend😁.
This type of case illustrates my preference for a lower over denture. If bone and anatomy allow I prefer 4 implants with this type of AP spread. Very stable for an implant assisted denture and if patient would like to go fixed in the future no extra…

Very nice case, do you always place bone graft material in the extraction sites in full arch cases? I have seen it done both ways but wondering what your thoughts are. Thank you!

Failures are apart of dentistry and any profession whether we like it or not. Our responsibility and goal is to deal with them in an effiecient and professional manner. With all the research articles and studies out there implants typically have a 96% to 97% survival rate at 10 years. This means on average you will have 3 to 4 implant…

I think the self doubt that comes from failures or criticism is one of the biggest issues in our profession.
One big stumbling block is that pressure you get from these things and it often gets blown out of proportion in your head

Happy Thursday to ALL! I hope all my Implant Ninja DOJO peeps are havning a fantastic day and week. Just remember if you’re havning a bad day or week it can always be worse, like this photo of a fractured implant. Make sure you always you the torque wrench properly and don’t over torque your implants or this can happen. Only way to remove…
-
at what torque value is considered “over torqueing”?
1 -
It depends on the implant system, as well as the diameter of the implant. Typically implants can be torqued at very, very high torque values and I am not one that believes in Osteo pressure necrosis. I have not experienced that clinically, and my implants are placed subcrestal and I have no bone loss around implants at extremely high…

Very important when doing any type of bone augmentation that you ask yourself where is my blood supply coming from and how can I get greater access of cells to my bone graft material.
You always want to make sure that you decorticate the buccal plate to help stimulate bleeding and allow greater access to cells to feed your bone graft…

I hope everyone is having a great week! This photo speaks to what we have discussed a bit with Paul’s case on this forum. This was an implant placed by one of our attendees at our live surgical courses and I want to point out a 3 things.
First is the proper height of the healing abutment so that it is easy to suture because the tissue is easier…
