	Extraction, Immediate Placement, and Restoration of a Mandibular Primary Molar with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC) Posted on May 3, 2018 in Case Studies, Techniques This comprehensive video case study demonstrates the extraction of a mandibular primary molar and the immediate placement of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant, including the use of a sulcus former to countersink the orifice of the osteotomy which minimizes the inadvertent displacement of the osteotomy from dense or sloping bone. Additionally, the implant-level impression, temporization, and final seating of the Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC) are demonstrated, with 2.5-year follow-up images.
	All the Things I Can Only Do with Bicon Implants Posted on April 23, 2018 in Introductory, Case Studies In this video, Dr. John Morgan shares his thoughts on why the Bicon Dental Implant is sometimes the only implant system he can use for certain cases and discusses five primary situations where Bicon truly shines for him. He is an oral surgeon in private practice and has been using the Bicon system for over twenty years. He also uses multiple different implant systems for his referral base but is frequently asked why he prefers Bicon. Dr. John Morgan is Board Certified with the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and a Fellow of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons. He is also a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery at the Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine.
	Immediate Placement and Restoration of a Maxillary First Molar with an Extra-Orally Cemented Lithium Disilicate Crown Posted on April 5, 2018 in Case Studies, Techniques This comprehensive video case study demonstrates the extraction of a maxillary first molar and the immediate placement of a 6.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant. Additionally, three different impression techniques are presented: implant-level with impression material, implant-level with digital scanning, and abutment-level transfer impression. Furthermore, the extra-oral cementation of a lithium disilicate crown and its final seating are demonstrated.
	Prefabricated Retentive Copings for Telescopic TRINIA® Restorations Posted on April 7, 2016 in Case Studies, Techniques This video demonstrates the fabrication of telescopic TRINIA® prostheses using cemented prefabricated retentive and non-retentive titanium copings on Bicon Universal Abutments, the fabrication of light-cured resin jigs used for the orientation and insertion of the abutments, and presents five clinical case studies highlighting the benefits of these innovative techniques.
	Immediate Placement and Loading of Four Maxillary Incisor SHORT® Implants Posted on March 13, 2016 in Case Studies This case study video demonstrates the immediate placement and loading of four maxillary incisors with a TRINIA® stabilization prosthesis, and their restoration with TRINIA® polyceramic crowns for a 75-year-old man in four clinical visits.
	Clinical Capabilities of the Bicon 3.0 x 6.0mm NARROW® Implant Posted on October 3, 2015 in Case Studies In this video, Dr. Laura Murcko discusses the clinical capabilities of the Bicon 3.0 x 6.0mm NARROW® Implant. She discusses recommendations for success and presents multiple clinical cases for review.
	Full-Arch Telescopic TRINIA® Prostheses Posted on September 20, 2015 in Case Studies Join Dr. Laura Murcko for a comprehensive video case study demonstrating the clinical and laboratory procedures for the fabrication of maxillary and mandibular full-arch telescopic TRINIA® restorations in only three clinical visits.
	The Implant Book was Wrong, Longer is Not Better Posted on September 8, 2015 in Case Studies In this video, Dr. Rainier Urdaneta discusses how his practice of implant dentistry changed over the years, once he recognized the merits of using 5.0 and 6.0mm short implants. He was taught to use long implants, but now knows the use of short implants is better. Short implants can avoid the need for bone grafting procedures and their associated morbidity, expense, and pain.
	How Bicon Abutments Can Affect Bone Gain Posted on August 30, 2015 in Case Studies In this video, Dr. Vincent J. Morgan discusses how both the diameter of the hemispherical base and the length of the abutment shaft are factors that can impact bone levels. He goes on to explain how this knowledge was then incorporated into Bicon’s Universal Abutment System.
	Restoring Congenitally Missing Laterals in Adolescent Patients with Bicon Posted on August 18, 2015 in Case Studies In this video, Dr. Vincent J. Morgan gives a brief overview of the successful history of restoring congenitally missing laterals in adolescent patients with the Bicon Dental Implant System. In addition, he discusses just how easy it is to intraorally lengthen a Bicon restoration to compensate for the continued eruption of natural teeth over time.
