My Evolving Views on Bicon SHORT® Implants After Using Them Extensively for Eight Years – Prof. DDr. Rolf Ewers [HD]

Posted on September 3, 2018 in Scientific Lectures

Please join Rolf Ewers, MD, DMD, Ph.D. on his journey with Bicon SHORT® Implants as his views have evolved over time — from initial disbelief to using them extensively for over eight years. Prof. DDr. Ewers also considers how Bicon’s bacterial seal, double platform switching, screwless locking-taper connection, slow drilling at 50RPM, callus bone healing principle, and Haversian-like bone morphology result in unmatched clinical capabilities. He also examines how TRINIA® metal-free CAD/CAM fiber-reinforced resin material can further expand the clinical capabilities of Bicon SHORT® Implants. After multiple long-term clinical studies, Prof. DDr. Ewers concludes that maybe “less is more”.

Short Implants: A Reliable Treatment Option? – Dr. Frank Kistler [HD]

Posted on May 7, 2018 in Scientific Lectures

IDC-Italy presents the 1st European Forum On Short Implants at the Teatro Comunale di Ferrara in Ferrara, Italy. Please join Dr. Frank Kistler as he discusses the primary issues today in Implantology — aesthetics, acceleration, long-term stability, efficiency, and simplicity — and how short implants can help address those issues. Dr. Kistler also makes an important distinction between “success rates” and “complication rates”.

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.

Dr. Urdaneta also discusses multivariate factors associated with bone gain and presents long-term Bicon SHORT® Implant case results.

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.
