Some of my thoughts about splinting maxillary implants in an edentulous patient.
   
A Multipurpose Internal Carrier System for Implant Delivery
   
Today we often attach a restoration to the implants at the time we place them. We have to choose our patients carefully for this immediate loading of the implants.
   
Very often a thin ridge is encountered during implant placement. There are many different ways to handle this... This is how I approach the problem...
   
By replacing non-standard slotted screws with standard size hex screws, we have eliminated two of the most annoying problems of using superstructure restorations...
   
It is true that sometimes an implant or two might fail. My philosophy is to get them all to work sooner or later... Usually, I don't have too much trouble, but this one took me quite a while to get it to work right...
   
Placing Dental Implants. The general technique that should be used in implant placement.
   
Using Zest Attachments. Step by step procedure for the ZAAG attachment.
   
Using ERA attachments. Step by step explanation of the ERA attachment.
   
Anatomical abutments. One type of wide diameter implant abutment that may facilitate the design of a normally contoured restoration.
 
Developing Emergence Profile. A look at what is really necessary to develop the proper emergence profile and contour of an implant restoration.
   
One Stage Implant Placement - Posterior Mandible. Any implant system can be used for a one stage surgical procedure. Here is a treatment with a Brånemark clone.
   
Placing implants in Posterior Mandible. A demonstration of implant placement in the posterior mandible when there is a minimal amount of bone height.
   
Bone Grafting Around Dental Implants. An excellent example of bone grafting to repair a huge defect in the area of implant placement.
   
Retrieving and Replacing a Fractured Implant. Under-engineering a restoration can lead to implant fracture. Here is a situation where I had to retrieve and replace a fractured implant.
