Instrumentation designed to remove teeth, without damaging or eliminating pre-existing osseous tissue is mandatory. The era of using large, cumbersome elevators and forceps is dwindling. Surgeons must now appreciate the importance of preserving surrounding bone and maintenance of soft tissue and understand the necessity of modern instruments designed to facilitate, if not enable esthetically pleasing results. The advent of the Periotomes, X-Trac forceps and now X-otomes by A. Titan Instruments has simplified these procedures. The presentation will demonstrate the role of these instruments in immediate implant surgery.
Educational Objectives of the webinar:
1.The clinician should better appreciate the importance of bone maintenance as it relates to the success of esthetic implant therapy. 2.Understand the evolution of tooth-removal instrumentation and the benefits of these new instruments. 3.Appreciate the importance of hard and soft tissue augmentation in achieving optimum esthetic outcomes.
