#3 Crown Cementation over Bone Augmentation
Join us!
Over the past decade, a significant shift in implantology has occurred, with a focus on prosthetically-driven approaches aimed at addressing the primary cause of implant failure: cement remnants. While this shift may seem logical, it has led to increased demand for bone augmentation in many delayed cases and the avoidance of immediate treatments in some instances to ensure screw-retained restorations. This has resulted in longer treatment times, higher costs, more complications, and added discomfort for our patients.
It begs the question: Is there a better way? Can we safely use cement to secure a restoration, avoiding the need for bone augmentation and complex surgeries, or even provide immediate treatment without the constraints of screw-retained designs?
In this webinar, we'll explore how to cement restorations safely, freeing both you and your patients from the risks of bone augmentation, major surgeries, and increased costs. Additionally, what if I told you that cementing a bridge offers superior benefits compared to screw-retained solutions? We will dive into the advantages of cementation for both FPDs (Fixed Partial Dentures) and single crowns, showing you how to do it safely and effectively. Plus, we will discuss why cementing can be a superior option compared to using an angled screw channel (ASC).
