Upper full arch implant case discussion
Hello William,
Based off the limited info I see here it doesn’t appear the pt. Has sufficient bone for either of those procedures for long term success of the implants. Ridge augmentations possibly to improve success and have sufficient bone and biology for the implants or possible another route such as Zygo’s and/or ptero implants. Either way…

Placed first implant (#4) solo, 2 weeks later looks like it's failing
Very easy to remove if needed by just reversing it out with your torque wrench and implant driver. However, I agree with Adis that it’s a bit too soon to throw the towel in. First, I wouldn’t ever use silk sutures and they do collect a ton of plaque, bacteria, and food and are not very hygienic. Monofilament sutures will keep site cleaner.… Read more

I get this questioned asked a lot so I figured someone here could benefit from it. Specifically I get asked how and where to I place the sutures to stablize the membrane. There is a full thickness flap here then at the base a partial thickness flap which if you look closely can see that is what i sutured to on the facial/buccal aspect. This can…

Also, if you place the implant slightly more lingual and upright the implant slightly more lingual in terms of angulation from buccal to lingual, I don’t think you’ll need additional grafting in that area potentially

Hey doc,
The shorter implant you selected should be fine. There’s actually great research that shows almost the same or very similar success rate with shorter implants compared with normal length or longer implants. However, if you have sufficient bone width it’s best to go wider if you’re going shorter to help compensate to minimize the…

Surgical guide and fixation pins?
Many ways you Can design to help improve your stability. Seeing that it is tooth born guide it should be very stable and you could do one screw fixation towards the gingiva side of the guide close to where you’re placing the implants. You also could have three fixation screws to have a more robust fixation one on the lower left and lower right…

Here’s a case of what you should expect to see when you don’t value bone, biology, and proper space around your implants.
This was a second opinion/consult from a new patient regarding her lower treatment and implants. These all were removed and reversed out with an implant removal driver and a torque wrench. All of the sites were grafted for…

Did you GBR the facial then after?

Here is one of two ways in which we assess stability of a dental implant at time of surgery. After we received our torque value, we place a smart peg in the implant to receive another value from our beacon device. This is what is called an ISQ value which stands for implant stability quotient. It essentially is measuring the bone to…

What ISQ range do you want to be in at the time of surgery and at the time of restorative?

Anything seem out of place??? What would you do? How could a mistake like this be prevented in the future? Leave a comment below👇👇👇.

This one will make you lose sleep for days 😅; Implant in the sinus UL. I would say if you are comfortable with doing a lateral window/caldwell luc, take a cbct and see where it is relatively in the sinus and remove with that procedure. I find that sometimes you can push the patients head a certain way (since the sinus the pyramidal) to get…
