A great challenge in implantology today is a predictable, long lasting red aesthetic result.
Course fee: $95.00
An innovative treatment concept is based on a non-traumatic and effective shaping of the periimplant soft tissue – including an anatomical shaping from the first second. Especially, too many assembling and removing of abutments can contribute to aesthetic complications by vertical tissue loss. Therefore the “one abutment one time” and the “one crown one time” concepts are preferred. Additionally, platform switched and sealed implant-abutment connection prevent crestal bone loss and an apical shift of the facial gingival margin.
In case of a fresh extraction socket the seal with the own tooth or a temporay crown can keep the complete soft tissue shape in a easy and predictible way. This "prosthetic" socket preservation simulates an intentinal tooth re-implantation without the root.
The same seal and therfore an optimal healing mode of the extraction socket is realized by an immediate implant insertion and restoration. The results are promising and more predictable than the common used “surgical” socket preservation.

This is a great opportunity! I had the pleasure of attending a lecture with Dr. Weigl in Germany and look forward to an enlightening presentation, once again. Thank you for offering this online (sure beats having to buy another plane ticket!). Danke!

There is no one quite like Dr. Weigl. The concepts he has discerned, the techniques he has developed, the audacity he has demonstrated through his innovation have been alchemized over the past twenty years. What he understood back then was derided; but he not only stayed the course, he reinvented it. No micromovement, platform switching, subcrestal placement....the entire implant world is now beating a path to a door he opened for them two decades ago...not to be missed.
