3D Printing has revolutionized how we think about dental implants. Designing and printing Surgical Guides can be done in your office while the patient is in the chair. From custom healing abutments, screw retained provisionals, to definitive hybrids, 3D printing allows you to deliver same day, highly accurate, very economic and highly esthetic restorations chairside. This course is designed for those who have never placed an implant to those that have experience with digital hybrids.

Navigating your career in today’s dental climate is challenging. Many dentists quickly realize our profession and their life is very different from what they expected. Instead of a rewarding career helping others and honing our clinical skills, we find ourselves just trying to survive. Drowning in debt, afraid of making poor practice ownership decisions, we have few options and little control. We ask around and start to understand that the mature dentists in our community have few answers, many have become discouraged, their future uncertain and time limited. This course is a blueprint for the courageous. Those who want to take themselves and their team and create the practice of their dreams. This course is for practice owners, future practice owners, spouses, and all dental team members.

This two-day program will cover treatment modalities that can be utilized in both single-tooth implants and more complex interdisciplinary cases to achieve great outcomes. Several treatment adjuncts will be discussed in detail to achieve superior results, including hard and soft tissue augmentation, osseodensification, orthodontic bone formation, and partial extraction therapy. This program will also discuss abutment and restoration design to achieve long-term crestal bone stability. At the conclusion of this course, clinicians will feel more confident handling routine and more complex cases in a traditional analog and digital workflow.

Developing the ideal implant site often requires bone grafting procedures. Implant surgeons today must be proficient in socket grafting as well as ridge augmentation techniques. Gain the knowledge and confidence you need to incorporate these procedures into your daily practice with predictable results. This two-day course combines lecture and hands-on lab allowing you to quickly master these procedures and integrate them into your practice.

This course is designed for the General Dentist who is interested in learning more about basic surgical principles and protocols to initiate the process of placing implants. The goal is to empower dentists with the knowledge and confidence necessary to start a simple dental implant practice. After this course, participants should be able to develop their own protocol for the assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, surgical placement, and prosthetic restoration of single-tooth posterior implants. This immersive course includes lecture, hands-on typodont training and live surgical implant placement.

Formerly known as Implant Dentistry 102. Take the next step in your implant education as this two-day course guides you through the fundamentals of implant dentistry. Participants will learn how to place implants in the esthetic zone, immediate vs. delayed placement, and immediate vs. delayed temporization to develop ideal soft tissue profile. This course provides both technical and practical information for surgical and restorative aspects that can be implemented into your practice.

This 2-Day DIRECTarch Full Arch Cadaver Course is tailored for dentists and dental specialists eager to integrate the fixed full arch treatment into their practices. Whether you are currently placing dental implants or seeking to deepen your comprehension of the surgical process, this course is a pivotal step towards refining your treatment planning and enhancing the restorative outcomes for your patients.

Participants will gain a thorough grounding in the surgical protocol and receive a comprehensive overview of temporization and final prosthesis delivery options. This course is not just about learning the mechanics of surgery, but about understanding a transformative procedure that can offer your patients full-arch rehabilitation with immediate function.

By enrolling in this program, you will benefit from hands-on experience with cutting-edge technology and cadaveric specimens, allowing for a realistic and practical learning environment. This is an unparalleled opportunity to elevate your practice, offering a service that can dramatically improve your patients' quality of life.

Who Should Attend:

This is a training program designed for dental implant professionals looking to excel in their practice. The course will challenge participants, encouraging them to push the boundaries of their surgical and treatment planning skills for full-mouth dental implant treatment in a supportive and technologically advanced environment. Attending dentists should have extensive oral and implant surgical experience.

The clinical success of an implant restoration is dependent on the soft tissue that frames it and on the bone volume surrounding it. As such soft tissue grafting and sinus grafting are essential skills for the advanced implant surgeon to master. This two day course will focus on soft tissue grafting and sinus grafting procedures. Attendee will learn these procedures in a step by step fashion through didactic lectures and hands-on with a pig specimen.

Immediate implant placement with provisionalization is a long established and scientifically proven approach to implant therapy. This course is designed to cover treatment planning and specific protocols to maximize long-term success. The program will place emphasis on initial diagnosis, surgery, and prosthetics that will streamline procedures valuable to the patient.

This is a two-day course that covers the concepts of Digital Implant Dentistry. The course will immerse you into how to implement digital dentistry into your implant practice. We will demonstrate how to create a digital treatment plan and how to create and print a surgical guide. We will place an implant over a model using our guide and scan a final digital impression. We will also discuss abutment selection and demonstrate the digital design for our restoration.

This two-day program will begin with facially diagnosing and treatment planning for tooth position relative to the face to determine incisal edge position, height to width ratio of teeth, and vertical space requirement for prosthetic material to ensure proper implant position for long-term aesthetic and functional success. This will be a comprehensive course on successfully treating edentulous and terminal dentition patients with a variety of fixed and removable options in the digital workflow.
