IMPLANT-SUPPORTED RESTORATION WITH DIGITAL IMPRESSION CAPTURE
This patient was treated by Professors David and Miguel Peñarrocha with Ticare® y PICdental®. Both the upper and lower arches were restored but only this case study only deals with the maxillary treatment. A flapless surgery technique was used to place 6 InHex standard implants (4.25 mm diameter). Distal implants were tilted to avoid the maxillary sinus. The positions of the implants were recorded using the PIC® camera, a system that uses stereophotogrammetry to obtain the accurate relative position of each implant in vector format. This information was then combined with digitised soft tissue data obtained from conventional impressions by Best-fit®. Based on this combined information, a permanent hybrid resin-bonded metal restoration was designed which was placed with immediate loading. This case has a 5-year follow-up period.

Dr. Hom-Lay Wang - conferencia Sepa 2022

Dr. Hom-Lay Wang conference sponsored by Ticare in SEPA 2022

Dr. Hom-Lay Wang gave a conference sponsored by Ticare focused on management of peri-implant complications.

Dr. Wang began by recognizing predisposing and precipitating factors associated with peri-implant complications, helping dentists to learn how to prevent future implant complications, and how to select proper treatment for different implant complications. Dr. Wang shared recent research findings of how restorative designs influence the incidence of implant complications, as well as the mechanisms of how implant bone loss and implant failure occurred at the conference, especially demonstrated how to manage implant biological complications using EP-DDS guided bone regeneration protocol.

Dr. Wang also highlighted Ticare Perio Hybrid implants: “Ticare Hybrid implants concept is what I have talked for more than 10 years, which with the polished collar to compensate for the supper crustal tissue at the region, so called biological width. When you have that space, the soft tissue attaches to it,
