Replacing molars immediately - implant design, placement protocols and gaining predictable long term outcomes

Learning Content

Molar teeth tend to crack deeming them unable to treatment using RCT or crowns. Often seen in bruxists a molar tooth may crack through and through. Here we will show a technique to rapidly replace a molar tooth using a dental implant, both the surgical protocols, selection criteria and outcomes of such treatment. Implant design has moved rapidly over the last decade allowing clinicians to consider more rapid replacement of teeth. Traditionally molar teeth should be removed then augmented after a period of 6 months then placement and restoration subsequently 4 months later. Using this technique we shorten treatment times as well as preserve soft and hard tissue architecture negating the need for large grafts also. 

Our lecture will demonstrate the various facets required for predictable and safe outcomes for our patients 

  • To Understand Implant design for molar sockets
  • Understand the selection criteria for molar immediate replacement
  • Understanding of the various grafting materials we would use
  • To understand the surgical protocol for placement of the implant in a molar socket to gain stability

Aims

Aim to demonstrate a novel approach to immediate molar replacement using dental implants To demonstrate the various elements of implant design required for this procedure To demonstrate the evidence for this technique To show examples of the surgical protocols utilised for this
