Course Objectives
- Implant position and its influence on the prosthetic result. What implant malposition could be prosthetically solved and how
- Immediate implant temporization: fixed or removable? What restoration shape is the best? How not to cause any problems with the temporary crown to a healing implant?
- Temporary crown and soft tissue conditioning, where to push and where to preserve soft tissues. What are the signs that the result going to be (non)satisfactory?
- Impression taking: how to ensure stability of the impression coping.
- Communication with the dental technician. Xray and how to read it, how is it related to the selection of the titanium base?
- New iEXCEL concept of Straumann. BLX, BLC, TLX, TLC implant prosthodontics: TorcFit connection, titanium bases and much more. Why is it easier now?
- Material selection: zirconium oxide and lithium disilicate. What material is best for the soft tissues>
- Shape of the pontic area to ensure soft tissue stability
- Restoration delivery: screw retained vs cemented
Hands-on:
- Fixing and shaping a temporary crown on implant straight after implant placement (immediate temporization)
- Reshaping a temporary crown for soft tissue conditioning once the implant could be fully loaded

LECTURER Eglė Vindašiūtė-Narbutė
My specialisation is full and partial prosthesis on dental implants, also minimally invasive dental prosthesis. However, the biggest compliment for me is when people, captivated by my patient’s smile, dare not to ask if it was given by nature or a specialist had to do something with it.
I am a believer that a smile is liberating and presents a variety of opportunities.
