	NEW! Indirect Abutment-level Impression and Insertion of a New CAD/CAM Hybrid Ceramic Crown for a 6.0 x 5.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant Five Years After Initial Insertion Posted on May 31, 2019 in SHORT® Implants This treatment demonstrates the replacement of a CAD/CAM crown for a 6.0 x 5.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant to improve its aesthetics. A full-arch, indirect abutment-level transfer impression, and the intraoral cementation of a CAD/CAM hybrid ceramic crown to a seated 6 Series Universal Abutment is also shown.
	Two-Stage Placement of a 4.5 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant for a Maxillary Right Central Incisor Five Months After Grafting a Large Buccal Defect with SynthoGraft™ Posted on February 25, 2019 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Surgical, Two Stage This treatment demonstrates the two-stage placement of a 4.5 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant for a maxillary right central incisor five months after grafting a large buccal defect and using SynthoGraft™, a Collagen Membrane, and a Collagen Plug. Also shown is the making of a full arch implant-level transfer impression and the subsequent restoration of the implant with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC).
	One-Stage Placement of a 5.0 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant for a Maxillary Left First Molar and its Restoration with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC) Posted on February 14, 2019 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, One Stage, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Surgical This treatment demonstrates the placement of a 5.0 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant for a maxillary left first molar using the one-stage surgical technique, the restoration with a full arch implant-level transfer impression, and the insertion of an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC).
	Two-Stage Placement of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant with an Internal Sinus Lift Procedure using Guided Surgery for a Maxillary Right First Molar and its Restoration with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC) Posted on January 10, 2019 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Surgical, Two Stage This treatment demonstrates the two-stage placement of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant with an internal sinus lift procedure using guided surgery for a maxillary right first molar and its restoration with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC). Guided surgery designed for a 5.0 x 5.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant was used to minimize the risk of sinus perforation and expedite the placement of the 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant with an internal sinus lift procedure. The osteotomy was deepened using incrementally longer Guided Surgery Reamers through the orifice of a 5.0mm Guide Ring until the length of the intended implant was achieved. The top of the Guide Ring is designed to be 12.0mm above the top of the implant when the implant is placed 2.0 to 3.0mm below the alveolar crest of bone.
	Laboratory Fabrication of a Full-Arch Maxillary Telescopic TRINIA® Prosthesis and its Insertion on a Demonstration Model Posted on December 18, 2018 in SHORT® Implants This demonstration provides detailed images and explanations of the laboratory fabrication of a custom full-arch maxillary anatomic teeth arrangement for a telescopic TRINIA® prosthesis on four Bicon SHORT® Implants using the polyceramic material, Ceramage, with the live staining sandwich technique and the simulated clinical insertion of the prosthesis on an acrylic demonstration model.
	Guided Surgery with Two-Stage Technique for the Restoration of a 5.0 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant for a Mandibular Right First Molar with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC) Posted on December 7, 2018 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Surgical, Two Stage, Uncovering Using the Bicon Guided Surgery Technique, a 5.0 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant was placed with a two-stage surgery for a mandibular right first molar and restored with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC). This technique employs a Spade Drill to initially establish the osteotomy to the diameter of the intended implant. Subsequently, the osteotomy was deepened using incrementally longer Guided Surgery Reamers through the orifice of a 5.0mm Guide Ring until the length of the intended implant was achieved. The top of the Guide Ring was designed to be 15.0mm above the top of the implant when the implant is placed 2.0 to 3.0mm below the alveolar crest of bone.
	Restoration of a Maxillary Left Second Premolar with a 4.5 x 5.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant Using the Two-Stage Technique with SynthoGraft™ and a Collagen Membrane Posted on November 26, 2018 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Surgical, Two Stage, Uncovering This treatment demonstrates the restoration of a maxillary left second premolar with a 4.5 x 5.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant using the two-stage technique with SynthoGraft™ and a Collagen Membrane, as well as the subsequent uncovering, full arch implant-level transfer impression, and insertion of an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC).
	Restoration of an Atrophic Mandible with Three 4.5 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implants and a Mandibular Telescopic TRINIA® Prosthesis Posted on November 21, 2018 in Restorative, SHORT® Implants This treatment demonstrates the restoration of an atrophic mandible with three 4.5 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implants and a mandibular telescopic TRINIA® prosthesis. Also shown is the Gothic arch technique, which was used to record the patient’s centric occlusal relation.
	Restoration of a 4.5 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant for a Maxillary Right Central Incisor Using the Two-Stage Technique with Bone Grafting Posted on October 31, 2018 in Integrated Abutment Crowns™, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Surgical, Two Stage This treatment demonstrates the restoration of a 4.5 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant for a maxillary right central incisor using the two-stage technique with bone grafting of a labial fenestration using SynthoGraft™ and autogenous bone with a Collagen Membrane.
	Fabrication of a Maxillary Telescopic TRINIA® Prosthesis and a Mandibular TRINIA® Overdenture and the Subsequent Conversion of the Mandibular Brevis™ O-Ring Overdenture to a Telescopic Prosthesis After One Year in Function Posted on September 13, 2018 in Overdentures, Restorative, SHORT® Implants, Telescopic Restorations This treatment of a seventy-five-year-old woman, who was previously told by six clinicians that dental implants would be an impossible treatment option (despite the fact that one clinician augmented her right maxilla with graft material), clearly demonstrates the unmatched clinical capabilities of Bicon SHORT® Implants and TRINIA® metal-free CAD/CAM material. The surgical placement of two maxillary and two mandibular implants is also shown, as well as the initial prosthetic restoration of a maxillary telescopic prosthesis and a mandibular Brevis™ O-Ring-retained mandibular overdenture, and the clinical and laboratory techniques for modifying and converting the mandibular Brevis™ O-Ring overdenture to a full-arch telescopic TRINIA® prosthesis after one year in function.
