Vertical preparation has become more prevalent in aesthetic dentistry. It is offers an opportunity to replace many conventional and contemporary prosthetic preparation solutions. The preparation technique is actually relatively straightforward to execute but challenging to restore with regards to the provisional phases and the technical aspects of the laboratory aspects.
More recently innovation has taken this concept and applied the principles to Implant design The Prama implant offers vertical preparation benefits but with implant biology.
Often misunderstood in terms of when or how to use, the presentation aims to:
Identify the criteria for the variations of the vertical preparation designs To relate the principles of vertical preparation to implant restorative aspects with soft tissue implants To understand how to communicate and work with your laboratory to achieve the best potential possibilities with this preparation style To gain insight into the all-ceramic restoration current parameters that need to be respected To see the benefits and still appreciate the challenges of aesthetics in implant dentistry.
The lecture will be an overview of a concept that has been developed from the late 1960s on teeth and now we have a modern twist based on soft tissue implants concept.
