	The Insertion of Two Contiguous Implants into a Mandibular Bone Void Using Sinus Lift Abutments with SynthoGraft®, and Their Subsequent Restoration with Two Integrated Abutment Crowns™ Posted on July 12, 2017 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, SHORT® Implants This treatment demonstrates the insertion of a 4.0 x 6.0mm implant and a 4.5 x 6.0mm implant into two contiguous mandibular osteotomies, which communicated with each other because of a bone void. After preparation of the implant osteotomies through the crest of cortical bone, the soft tissue content of the bone void was thoroughly removed from the bony walls of the defect with a spoon excavator prior to filling the defect with a putty-like consistency of the patient’s blood and SynthoGraft®, a pure-phase beta-tricalcium phosphate. A sinus lift abutment was used to prevent the implants from being displaced into the defect. Subsequently, the implants were restored with Universal Abutments and Integrated Abutment Crowns (IACs).
	Guided Bone Regeneration Technique and Implant Placement in an atrophic mandibular first molar site Posted on May 10, 2017 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Uncovering This treatment offers an alternative to ridge splitting procedures, demonstrating the molar implant placement and simultaneous guided bone regeneration of a 56-year-old woman’s atrophic left mandible. Because of the very thin and dense crestal bone, a high-speed drill was used to initiate the osteotomy prior to the successive use of latch and hand reamers, and the placement of a 4.5 x 6.0mm implant, which was covered with SynthoGraft™ within a collagen membrane pocket. The 5-year post-insertion clinical and radiographic images reveal a successful treatment with significant bone gain.
	Placement and Restoration of a 3.0 x 6.0mm SHORT® Implant in a Seemingly Impossible Clinical Situation Posted on October 9, 2016 in Immediate Placement, Integrated Abutment Crowns™, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Surgical This case demonstrates three years of remarkable healing and clinical capabilities of a Bicon implant which was restored with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC) in a seventy-two-year-old male patient. Due to a variety of extenuating circumstances, a 3.0 x 6.0mm SHORT® Implant was immediately placed with a significant amount of SynthoGraft™, a pure phase beta tricalcium phosphate material, and a collagen membrane in a seemingly impossible clinical situation after the removal of a fractured and infected mandibular lateral incisor.
	Guided Placement and Restoration of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant with a CEREC® e.max® CAD/CAM Crown Posted on October 19, 2015 in SHORT® Implants This case demonstrates the successful guided placement of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant on a 67-year-old female and its restoration with a CEREC® chairside-designed e.max® abutment crown. A pre-op CEREC® designed crown integrated into an XG3D cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was utilized for implant planning down the long axis of the CEREC® designed crown. The final design was emailed to SiCat for construction of a surgical guide with a Bicon Guided Sleeve. The guided surgery used the final desired intraoral position of the CEREC® abutment crown to determine the final position of the Bicon implant.
	Guided Placement and Restoration of a Missing Second Molar with a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant and a CEREC® e.max® CAD/CAM Crown Posted on September 29, 2015 in SHORT® Implants Radiographic and clinical images of this case demonstrate the successful guided placement of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant on a 63-year-old female and restoration with a CEREC® chairside-designed e.max® abutment crown. The case utilized a pre-op CEREC® designed crown integrated into an XG3D cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for implant planning down the long axis of the CEREC® designed crown. The final design was emailed to SiCat for construction of a surgical guide with a Bicon Guided Sleeve. This case illustrates guided surgery utilizing the final desired intraoral position of the CEREC® abutment crown to determine the final position of the Bicon implant.
	Restoration of Maxillary and Mandibular Full-Arch Telescopic TRINIA™ Prostheses Posted on August 28, 2015 in Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Telescopic Restorations This case demonstrates the clinical and laboratory procedures for the fabrication of maxillary and mandibular full-arch telescopic TRINIA™ restorations, each using four Bicon SHORT® Implants and cast chrome cobalt copings with Si-tec TK-FRIC retentive attachments in only three clinical visits.
	Two Stage Placement, Uncovering, and Restoration of a Mandibular Posterior Bicon SHORT® Implant Posted on July 8, 2014 in SHORT® Implants, Two Stage, Uncovering This case demonstrates the two-stage placement of a 4.5 x 6.0mm SHORT® Implant, its uncovering, implant-level transfer impression, and restoration for a mandibular right first molar.
	Restoration of a Maxillary Left Central Incisor with an e.max® CAD/CAM Crown Posted on June 11, 2014 in Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Surgical, Two Stage, Uncovering This case demonstrates the two-stage placement of a 4.5 x 8.0mm  SHORT® Implant, its uncovering, implant-level transfer impression, and restoration for a maxillary left central incisor with an abutment with a titanium base and extra-orally cemented Zirconia coping abutment which was restored with a lithium disilicate crown.
	Internal Sinus Lift with Synthograft™ Posted on August 2, 2013 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Sinus Lifts, Surgical This case demonstrates the surgical placement with an internal sinus lift procedure using SynthoGraft™ pure phase Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate, and the restoration of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant with an Integrated Abutment Crown™.
	Maxillary and Mandibular Metal-Free TRINIA™ Prostheses on Bicon Integra-CP™ Implants Posted on September 14, 2012 in Fixed, SHORT® Implants, Surgical, Two Stage, Uncovering This case demonstrates the two-stage maxillary placement of four Bicon SHORT® implants, uncovering, implant-level transfer impressions, the concept and clinical techniques for fabricating a maxillary and mandibular metal-free implant supported fixed TRINIA™ prosthesis on Bicon implants.
