Respecting the balance of implant treatment in periodontal patients
With advances in both regenerative therapy and dental implants, dentists now have a large variety of treatment options to choose from. How do we choose the best treatment plan for the patient?
Learning objectives:
- To simplify treatment planning for patients with severe periodontal disease,
- To consider clinical cases where regenerative techniques were chosen to save a tooth: to help to understand what is possible with modern treatment developments,
- To study examples of clinical cases where extractions were the treatment of choice, to gain insight into why we “gave up”.
