The 33rd Annual Dr. Robert Allen Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Lecture: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugliness of Implant Dentistry
Thursday, April 23
9 AM - Noon
3 CDE Credits – DDS, DH, DA, AUX
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Since the introduction of osseointegration in the early 80s, the expectations of oral and maxillofacial surgeons have changed in perception, stature and responsibilities when managing the dental implant patient. The OMS has transitioned from being a supportive member of the “Implant Treatment Team” (ITT) to the leader. The OMS must be ready to incorporate modern technology in all phases of implant patient treatment in order to achieve the best clinical outcomes.
Course Objectives:
1. Understand the importance of incorporating the newest technologies into the implant practice.
2. Have the skills and knowledge to deliver services that meet your patients’ expectations.
3. Realize the ROI with expenditure for modernized equipment/software programs to increase in profit.
