Non-Implant Replacement Options - Single Missing Tooth

Dr Michael Frazis

In dentistry, as we progress in our career we tend to start to narrow our focus on bigger and more expensive treatment options.

As implants are a skill that everyone wants to master, a lot have forgotten that they are not a one size fits all kind of option.  

It is important for a clinician to be well versed in a multitude of treatment options rather than continuously narrowing their focus as they do more and more CPD.

This lecture aims to return to the forgotten aspects of prosthodontics that used to be applied to replace missing teeth in the "dark ages" before implants. Dr Frazis will discuss and demonstrate:: 

  • Various treatment options that are possible as well as step by step guides in their planning and fabrication. Treatment options to become well rounded clinicians. 
  • Implants are not the only option and we don’t need to put a screw in every hole.

Predictable Occlusion when Dealing with Destructive Forces

Dr Michael Melkers

Dentists traditionally haven't been taught what to look for, how to look for it, or most importantly, why. In this class, Dr Michael Melkers will help you answer why do we need it? When is it applicable and how can it be applied in those situations

Occlusal knowledge can help give you that confidence and provide that higher level of service to patients and all the other things that we love to do.

We love aesthetics. We love reconstructing and providing hope and returning function and confidence for our patients.
