Full arch implant cases are a special breed that require all of the practitioner’s skillsets, knowledge, and planning capabilities. No matter what implant system is chosen, the creation and execution of a complete and well constructed treatment plan is paramount for building strong and lasting full arch implant foundations. These fundamental elements of a well executed plan are imperative when reconstructing edentulous arches, and these criteria are the key to longevity for the entire restoration. Implant dentists are constantly inundated with new implant concepts and technologies, and it can be difficult for practitioners to decipher the best full arch options and outcomes. The ZircOnX fixed/removable concept offers an innovative option that eliminates the majority of difficulties associated with other iterations like screw retained hybrids or locator type attachments. Long-term implant stability, patient hygiene, crestal bone retention, beauty, and strength are some of the subject areas that will be discussed in depth along with multiple surgical and restorative cases studies and illustrations.
Learning Objectives:
Observe multiple case studies illustrating different F.R.A. options and discuss their attributes and limitations
Examine the massive, unmet need for a complete full arch fixed/removable solution that addresses the rampant problem of edentulism while offering alternatives to screw retained zirconia restorations
Explore the significance of an affordable fixed/removable full arch solution and the overall health benefits, including disease reduction and lifespan extension
