Overview
Managing extreme vertical mandibular atrophy in the posterior edentulous mandible presents significant challenges in dental implant treatment. This session explores advanced solutions for cases where the available bone height above the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) is less than 5mm, rendering conventional implant techniques unfeasible. In the following webinar Dr. Fares Kablan and Prof. Samer Srouji share their experience and insights into this alternative approach for treating extreme mandibular atrophy cases.
Essential Principles
The webinar examines an approach that combines immediate implant loading with guided implant placement alongside the inferior alveolar nerve. Key benefits include reduced treatment time, elimination of bone grafting, immediate implant insertion, bicortical implant anchorage, and favorable corono-radicular relationship.
Clinical Protocol
Learn about the specific protocols for guided implant placement, including technique considerations and clinical decision-making processes. The session addresses current findings regarding IAN dysesthesia and their implications for clinical practice.
Clinical Applications
The presentation includes detailed protocols and clinical cases demonstrating the application of this technique in challenging mandibular cases.
