	Two-Stage Implant Placement for a Congenitally Missing Maxillary Premolar Posted on March 21, 2020 in Introductory, Case Studies, Techniques This case study and technique video demonstrates the case planning, osteotomy preparation, and two-stage placement of a 4.5 x 6.0mm SHORT® Implant for a congenitally missing maxillary premolar for a 26-year-old female patient. In addition to Latch Reamers, Hand Reamers with a Threaded Instrument Adapter were used for the preparation of the osteotomy, which offers better control — especially in thin bone.
	Immediate Placement of a Maxillary Lateral Incisor Posted on March 15, 2020 in Introductory, Case Studies, Techniques This case study and technique video demonstrates the case planning, extraction, osteotomy preparation, and immediate placement of a 4.0 x 8.0mm implant with a 2.5mm well for a maxillary lateral incisor. Additionally, the technique of changing the Pilot Drill trajectory while drilling on a slope is demonstrated. This technique facilitates ideal implant placement. For the preparation of the osteotomy, Hand Reamers were used with a Threaded Instrument Adapter, which offers better control — especially in thin bone.
	Bicon SHORT® Implants and TRINIA® on Three Posted on March 8, 2020 in Scientific Lectures In this video, Rolf Ewers, MD, DMD, Ph.D. discusses the revolutionary TRINIA® on Three technique and its long-term results. After experiencing over six years of reliable results with full-arch TRINIA® prostheses supported by four SHORT® Implants, he decided to modify the study design in 2016 to follow full-arch TRINIA® prostheses supported by only three 4.0 x 5.0mm SHORT® Implants. He attributes their success to the exceptional clinical capabilities of Bicon SHORT® Implants and the unique properties of the non-rigid metal-free TRINIA® CAD/CAM material.
	Two-Stage Placement of a 4.0 x 8.0mm Maxillary Canine Implant and its Restoration with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC) Posted on March 3, 2020 in Introductory, Case Studies, Techniques This case study and technique video demonstrates the case planning, osteotomy preparation, and placement of a 4.0 x 8.0mm implant with a 2.5mm well in a maxillary canine site using a collagen membrane and SynthoGraft™ bone grafting procedure. After four months of healing, its uncovering, implant-level impression, and restoration with an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC) are shown. Additionally, the modification of the adjacent 15-year-old lateral incisor IAC to improve gingival aesthetics is demonstrated.
	Laboratory Techniques for Full-Arch TRINIA® Prostheses Posted on January 22, 2020 in Techniques The unique benefits of a full-arch TRINIA® prosthesis are evident, for both you and your patients. In order to achieve clinical success, certain techniques must be followed in the lab. This video provides an overview of those practical techniques.
	Inserting a Maxillary TRINIA® Prosthesis Posted on November 19, 2019 in Case Studies, Techniques This case study video demonstrates the insertion of five Bicon Universal Abutments and a maxillary telescopic TRINIA® prosthesis with the resin cementation of five Retentive Copings within the passive bores of the prosthesis — all within a 30-minute office visit.
	Materials for Long Span Implant-Supported Reconstructions: An Alternative to Existing Survival Issues Posted on August 21, 2019 in Scientific Lectures In this video, Dr. Estevam Bonfante, DDS, MS, Ph.D. of University of São Paulo, Bauru College of Dentistry, Department of Prosthodontics discusses the challenges of current restorative materials for both short and long-span prostheses, as well as a classification system for all-ceramic and ceramic-like materials and the EAO 2018 conclusions about the unacceptable fracture rates of ceramics. Dr. Bonfante concludes that there is not only an opportunity, but also a real need for novel metal-free restorative materials such as TRINIA®, a fiber-reinforced CAD/CAM material.
	My Journey from Augmentation to TRINIA®, a Non-Rigid Metal-Free CAD/CAM Material Posted on July 18, 2019 in Scientific Lectures Join Rolf Ewers, MD, DMD, Ph.D. on his journey with TRINIA®, a fiber-reinforced resin CAD/CAM material, as his views evolved over time — from using and enjoying multiple bone grafting techniques to avoiding grafting completely by using a non-rigid material and shorter implants. He examines how TRINIA® can further expand the clinical capabilities of Bicon SHORT® Implants — on four, three, and even one implant. After nine years of real-world experience and multiple long-term clinical studies, Prof. DDr. Ewers concludes that “less is more”!
	Bicon Dental Implants Roundtable 1997 [HD] Posted on July 1, 2019 in Introductory In 1997, Bicon released a roundtable discussion video. This video featured a frank and open discussion among clinicians sharing their real-world experiences with the Bicon system. Recently, more than 22 years later, we were pleasantly surprised to hear that clinicians around the world still refer to it today. Following a brief introduction by Dr. Vincent J. Morgan, we present this historical video — refreshed and digitized in high definition.
	Two-Stage Placement of a 5.0 x 6.0mm Bicon SHORT® Implant with an Internal Sinus Lift using Guided Surgery for a Maxillary Right First Molar and its Restoration with an IAC Posted on April 18, 2019 in Case Studies, Techniques This case study video 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). The guided surgery placement was designed for a 5.0 x 5.0mm implant in order 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 then deepened using incrementally longer Guided Surgery Reamers through the 5.0mm Guide Ring until the length of the intended osteotomy and sinus elevation was achieved for the 6.0mm implant. In addition, one-week, nine-month, and five-year follow-up images are provided.
