Meet Dr.Elena’s Jalali (Dr. Elly)! 👋
Join her in our next upcoming course on Nov 3!
📚Module 2: CBCT & Digital Dentistry Insights
🗓️ Sun. Nov 3. 9am-3pm
📍 2227 McAllister Ave. Port Coquitlam
⭐️ 5 CE | Includes breakfast & lunch
Summary of Course Content:
1. CBCT Technology and Principles
• Overview of CBCT: Key principles (FOV, resolution) that make CBCT essential for implant planning.
• Systematic Review Process: How to quickly assess a CBCT scan, focusing on anatomy, bone quality, and potential pathology.
2. Essential Anatomy and Errors
• Critical Anatomy for Implant Planning: Maxillary sinus, inferior alveolar nerve, and other vital structures.
• Common Anatomy-Related Errors: Mistakes in identifying anatomical landmarks and how to avoid them.
3. Recognizing and Managing Pathology
• Pathologies That Affect Implant Planning: Recognizing periapical lesions, maxillary sinus issues, and others.
• When and How to Modify Implant Plans: Guidelines on managing pathologies in the context of implant surgery.
4. Clinically Correct Cross Sections and Prosthetic Considerations
• Importance of Cross-Sections: How cross-sectional views aid in positioning implants correctly.
• Prosthetically Driven Implant Placement: Aligning implant positioning with planned prosthetics and occlusion.
• Common Errors: Consequences of ignoring prosthetic-driven placement, such as implant malposition and poor load distribution.
5. Bone Density and Other Key Considerations
• Assessing Bone Density with CBCT: Understanding bone quality for implant stability (D1-D4 bone types).
• Bone Density and Implant Strategy: How bone quality influences implant size, placement, and loading protocols.
Bonus Hands-on Interactive Activity: Practice identifying landmarks and tracing the nerve on a 3D CBCT scan using the Sidexis software
