The marked advantage of analog skills & digital tools in the evolution of implant dentistry

This presentation will review some of the emerging trends in both surgical planning and treatment, and how they are changing today's clinical landscape.  The goal in common to all clinicians is to provide ideal care with proven materials and predictable concepts from surgery through to restoration.  However, early adoption of emerging technologies and innovations may challenge this philosophy. The objectives of this presentation are to discuss specific concepts in the following areas:

• Digital planning concepts - an effective workflow for partial to complete edentulism
• A look at simplified virtual planning protocols
• Don't underestimate the importance of analog skills and procedures
