Description
Course Description:
This three-day course is designed to provide clinicians with a structured and evidence-based approach to full-arch, immediate-load fixed implant rehabilitation utilizing tilted implants, including the Full-Arch Treatment Tilted Implant Protocol. During days 1 and 2. participants will acquire the foundational knowledge required to plan and execute fixed full-arch rehabilitation. Lectures will address key clinical decision-making principles, including selection of fixed prosthesis types; comparison of freehand versus guided surgical approaches; soft- and hard-tissue management considerations; occlusal principles and their impact on treatment outcomes; determination of implant number and positioning; and recognition and management of fixed full-arch complications.
On Day 3, participants will engage in a hands-on clinical training session incorporating full-arch exercises, reinforcing didactic concepts through practical application.
Course Topics Include:
- Comprehensive preparation of All-on-X cases, including diagnosis, treatment planning, and clinical execution
- FP1, FP2, and FP3 prosthetic classifications and critical factors influencing fixed prosthesis selection
- Soft- and hard-tissue management strategies for fixed full-arch rehabilitation, including incision design, flap management, and ridge augmentation techniques
- Occlusal principles for fixed full-arch restorations and their role in long-term prosthetic success
- Determination of implant positioning, angulation, and number of implants to optimize clinical outcomes
- Digital workflows for full-arch rehabilitation: indications, limitations, and decision-making for fully digital and fully guided surgical and prosthetic protocols
- Progression from freehand surgery to surgical and prosthetic guides, culminating in Dr. Han’s Stackable Method
- Preparation of surgical guides and prosthetic setups for delayed and immediate implant protocols
- Criteria for immediate loading versus delayed loading
- Clinical protocols for transitioning from surgical placement to interim prosthesis and from interim to definitive prosthesis
- Identification, prevention, and management of early and late-stage complications
