AACD Continuum: Seamlessly Replacing a Missing Tooth in the Esthetic Zone
Stillwater, MN •
Friday, October 21, 2016, 8 a.m. - Saturday, October 22, 2016, 5 p.m.
Restorative dentists typically feel more comfortable with the prosthetic elements of tooth replacement but remain hesitant to manipulate the tissue elements. In order to achieve optimized results when replacing missing teeth with a fixed bridge or implant supported crown, soft tissue alteration via surgery or scaffolding is often necessary. By learning to manage the periodontal/restorative interface, dentists and technicians can predictably move the dentistry they provide from acceptable to exceptional. This course will forever change the way you approach replacing missing teeth, increase predictability and lower stress.
