This comprehensive video presents time-proven techniques for restoring Bicon abutments with their 360 degrees of locking taper positioning to achieve unmatched clinical capabilities, such as the extra-oral cementation of crowns using a wide variety of materials. Additionally, techniques and various uses for the metal-free fiber-reinforced hybrid resin CAD/CAM material TRINIA® are shown.

Bicon Free Vascular Graft Meeting – Rome 2022

Posted on November 29, 2022 in Introductory, Scientific Lectures

On October 15th and 16th in Rome, Italy, Bicon hosted a two-day international forum for clinicians and technicians participating in a 12-year clinical study initiated by Professor Rolf Ewers of Vienna, Austria. This study presented clear evidence that restoring free vascularized fibula and scapula bone grafts with TRINIA® fixed prostheses supported by Bicon SHORT® implants for the mandible and maxilla are efficient and effective treatments for providing both aesthetics and function for patients in need.

Immediate Placement of a Bicon SHORT® Implant in a Molar Socket

Posted on July 21, 2022 in Introductory, Techniques

In this video, Rolf Ewers, MD, DMD, Ph.D. presents his technique for immediately placing a 5.0 x 6.0 Bicon SHORT Implant in a maxillary right second molar socket using a supraperiosteal split-thickness flap to achieve primary closure of the extraction site. Subsequently, the implant is restored with an implant-level impression and insertion of an Integrated Abutment Crown™ (IAC). Additionally, a 6.5-year post insertion radiograph is presented.

Unmatched Clinical Capabilities of TRINIA® – Drs. Vincent J. Morgan and Estevam Bonfante [HD]

Posted on June 27, 2020 in Webcast Replays, Introductory, Scientific Lectures

On May 27, 2020, Vincent J. Morgan, DMD, and Estevam Bonfante, DDS, MS, Ph. D, co-presented a live webcast discussing TRINIA®, a metal-free ceramic matrix CAD/CAM material.

During the first portion, Dr. Morgan introduces TRINIA® as a fiber-reinforced resin with exceptional clinical capabilities and unique properties, which has been successfully used as a dental CAD/CAM material for over ten years.

In the second portion, Dr. Bonfante of The 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 and the conclusions of the EAO’s 2018 consensus report, 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 CAD/CAM restorative materials such as TRINIA®.

During the conclusion, Dr. Morgan presents multiple real-world clinical cases exemplifying TRINIA’s unmatched clinical capabilities and its potential to revolutionize restorative dentistry. He demonstrates that with TRINIA®, patient satisfaction can be achieved with less time, fewer clinical appointments, greater flexibility, and significant financial benefits for both you and your patients.

Dvofazna ugradnja implanta na poziciji urođeno nedostajućeg premolara u gornjoj vilici

Posted on June 8, 2020 in International, Serbian

Naredna studija slučaja prikazaće planiranje terapije, preparaciju u kosti i dvofaznu ugradnju 4,5×6,0mm Bicon Short implanta, na mestu urođeno nedostajućeg gornjeg premolara kod dvadeset šestogodišnje pacijentkinje. Pored mašinskih proširivača, upotrebljeni su i ručni proširivači pretvoreni u mašinske pomoću adaptera, čime je postignuta bolja kontrolapreparacije, posebno u regijama sa tankom kosti.

Naredna studija slučaja prikazaće planiranje terapije, preparaciju u kosti i ugradnju 4.0×8.0mm Bicon implanta, sa 2,5mm unutrašnjim promerom implanta, na poziciji očnjaka u gornjoj vilici, uz upotrebu kolagene membrane i SynthoGraft koštanog zamenika. Nakon četiri meseca osteointegracije, sledstveno prikazani su i otvaranje implanta,uzimanje otiska na nivou implantai protetska rehabilitacija saIntegrisanom abatment runom (IAC). Pored toga videćemo i reparaturu 15 godina stare IAC krune na poziciji lateralnog sekutića, zbog postizanja bolje gingivalne estetike.

Colocación inmediata de un incisivo lateral maxilar

Posted on May 29, 2020 in International, Spanish

Este vídeo técnico muestra la planificación del caso, extracción, preparación de la osteotomía y colocación inmediata de un implante de 4.0×8.0mm con poste de 2.5mm en un incisivo lateral maxilar. También se muestra la técnica para modificar la trayectoria de la fresa piloto durante el fresado en una pendiente. Esta técnica facilita la colocación ideal del implante. Para la preparación de la osteotomía, se utilizan fresas manuales con el instrumento adaptador roscado, que ofrecen mayor control – especialmente en hueso fino.
