Any strategies to help gain primary stability? Could u run the drill in reverse to help densify it. I removed this implant that failed.

UCLA abutment Q. I didnt see until after case returned. I ordered the 4.5/4.3 diameter ucla abutment however i just noted i placed 3.5 implants. Is it a problem since all Neodent platforms are the same.

So inherited case. Pt has several milled dentures made. He wants me to make him one. Pano shows lack of oros space. Denture confirms this. I plan to shorten anterior abutments. Thoughts on using Dentapreg or FiberForce? These options are glass fiber mesh and mught actually help unlike CrCo.

Having trouble communicating with lab about hygenic design. They keep putting buccal flanges on my cases. They look like this once adjusted and now they have a pantry shelf.

You’re right man, what kind of material is this? Usually the communication for how you want your final to look is done at the try in stage. What do you do at the try in stage?

Hey Nick, can you give some more background? Also can you share the patient’s pre-op x rays?
I share your frustration man. Some patients have such a hard time tolerating the implants that I screen more heavily. I’m more conservative than most. I’m looking forward to seeing the pictures.

So update on the mysteryous implant from Tuesday dicussion. I removed the implant crown. I noted that i was able to remove it by hand so that leads me to believe it loosened up. I had to tap on the buccal of the restoration to break the morse taper seal. I noted a bubble of pus which i popped. I think may have been from food getting below the…
