(BROOKLYN) (HANDS-ON COURSE) Treatment Guidelines for Immediate Provisional Restoration in the Esthetic Zone (#2025-10)

*This course is a hands-on course and has limited enrollment. Register EARLY to reserve a spot!

Venue:

Brooklyn, NY 11217

Clinician:
Wayne Szara, C.D.T.

Synopsis:
In this hands-on workshop, we will begin by reviewing clinical data prior to treatment planning for immediate provisional restorations in the aesthetic zone. Attendees will learn the difference between immediate loading and immediate non-occlusal loading, as well as become familiar with different methods of fabricating immediate single unit non-occlusal loaded provisional restorations. Participants will also take part in a hands-on fabrication of an anterior temporary. Upon successful completion of this course, attendees will receive a strong theoretical basis for managing single-tooth implants in the aesthetic zone. A secondary objective will be to maximize peri-implant soft-tissue aesthetics around definitive restorations—critical elements for achieving sustainable esthetics.
