	NEW! 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).
	Replacement of an Eighteen-Year-Old O-Ring-Retained Mandibular Overdenture with a Telescopic TRINIA® Prosthesis with Custom Cast Copings in Three Clinical Visits Posted on January 23, 2019 in Overdentures, Telescopic Restorations This treatment demonstrates the use of Gothic Arch tracing to record the patient’s centric occlusal relation, as well as the clinical techniques for the insertion of a mandibular telescopic TRINIA® prosthesis with custom cast chrome cobalt copings.
	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.
	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.
	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.
	Clinical Techniques for Fabricating and Inserting Maxillary and Mandibular Telescopic TRINIA® Prostheses with Universal Abutment Copings on Bicon SHORT® Implants Posted on September 4, 2018 in Overdentures, Restorative, SHORT® Implants This treatment demonstrates the clinical techniques for fabricating and inserting maxillary and mandibular telescopic TRINIA® prostheses with Universal Abutment copings each supported by two 4.5 x 8.0mm and two 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implants for a sixty-eight-year-old male patient.
	Immediate Load of Two 4.0 x 8.0mm and Two 4.5 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implants in the Anterior Maxilla Posted on July 3, 2018 in Immediate Placement, SHORT® Implants, Surgical This treatment demonstrates the removal of two canine root tips, and the immediate placement and loading of two 4.0 x 8.0mm and two 4.5 x 8.0mm Bicon SHORT® implants with four Universal Abutments in the anterior maxilla. Subsequently, the insertion of a six-unit resin-cemented TRINIA® prosthesis is shown, as well as enhanced papillae over a two-year period.
	Replacement of 25-Year-Old Maxillary and Mandibular O-Ring Relined Overdentures with Telescopic TRINIA® Prostheses Posted on March 9, 2018 in Overdentures, Restorative, Telescopic Restorations This case demonstrates the clinical and laboratory techniques and procedures for the replacement of two twenty-five-year-old tissue-borne overdentures with a telescopic maxillary implant-borne prosthesis on four implants and a telescopic mandibular implant-borne prosthesis on only two implants with 24mm and 21mm cantilevers.
	Insertion and Adjustment of an Eight-Unit Maxillary Telescopic TRINIA® Prosthesis on Four SHORT® Implants Posted on February 2, 2018 in SHORT® Implants This treatment demonstrates the clinical techniques for the fabrication and insertion of an eight-unit maxillary telescopic TRINIA® prosthesis on three custom cast chrome cobalt telescopic copings and one milled retentive coping, and the subsequent removal (three weeks later) of excessive polyceramic material from around the margins to eliminate irritation to the soft tissues under the prosthesis. This treatment also demonstrates the clinical compromises to healthy soft tissues caused by trying to achieve unnecessary gingival aesthetics rather than accepting supragingival titanium abutment margins.
	Implant Placement and Restoration of a Six-Unit Cemented TRINIA® Prosthesis in Only Two Clinical Visits Posted on January 18, 2018 in Extraction, Immediate Placement, SHORT® Implants This treatment demonstrates the extraction of a maxillary lateral incisor and the immediate placement of a 4.0 x 6.0-mm implant with a 2.5-mm well for a 91-year-old man. An implant-level transfer impression was made for an existing integrated molar implant and the immediately placed incisor implant. The existing molar implant, with a 3.0-mm well, was used to provide support for a temporary prosthesis during the four months of healing. The permanent TRINIA® prosthesis with six units of handcrafted polyceramic teeth was cemented at the time of the implant’s uncovering during the patient’s second clinical visit.
