The ITI Education Week Rio de Janeiro (in association with School of Dentistry, State University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) is a 4-day course that addresses the use of digital technology in implant dentistry today. The course aims to help participants understand, indicate, use and implement various digital tools to improve the outcome and success of implant dentistry in their practice. The course is highly clinically oriented. It includes daily workshops on treatment planning, surgical digital planning of the edentulous patient, surgical digital planning of the partially edentulous patient, computer-guided surgical implant placement and prosthesis planning and production in milling machines, and live implant placement with a computer surgical guide and live prothesis production and delivery. The course also includes lectures on regenerative surgical techniques for the development of the implant site and maintenance therapy protocols.
Learning objectives
- To diagnose and plan straightforward to complex clinical cases using digital and/or analog workflows
- To understand how to implement digital planning and guided implant surgery from a single esthetic edentulous site to fully edentulous cases
- To understand the process of dimensional ridge alterations following tooth extraction and the regenerative approaches for predictable outcomes
- To understand peri-implant soft tissue characteristics and how to proceed for soft tissue grafting when needed
- To indicate the different modalities of implant placement following tooth extraction and loading protocols based on current scientific evidence
- To understand how to implement the digital workflow in different prosthetic rehabilitation using CAD-CAM technology
