15:15	Interdisciplinary Management of Aesthetic Zone: from Single Teeth to Complex Aesthetic & Restorative Dilemmas The Ortho-Perio-Restorative interface plays a critical role in the optimum management of the broken-down dentition, missing and failing teeth and severe alveolar defects or advanced periodontal disease involving teeth in the aesthetic zone. This presentation will outline the interdisciplinary team approach to the management of these dilemmas in our practice. The aesthetic rehabilitation of the periodontally and structurally compromised dentition in the aesthetic zone remains a challenge despite the numerous advances in the treatment of periodontitis, regenerative and dental implant therapies. The management of some cases requires some ‘out-of-the-box’ thinking. Learning Objectives Learn the key principles for the diagnosis, treatment planning and management of the compromised dentition Learn the key elements in the surgical & prosthetic management of implant restoration of missing and failing teeth in the aesthetic zone Gain an understanding of the biology of the peri-implant tissues Review the principles of bone and soft tissue management around implants, as well as how to manage bone and soft tissue defects in post-extraction sites and peri-implant defects Review a systematic approach to case management in complex cases See the benefit of interdisciplinary case management and the management of the Ortho-Perio-Restorative interface Learn how orthodontic treatment can faciliate treatment outcomes See strategies for aesthetic rehabilitation of aesthetic & restorative dilemmas will be presented and discussed including the management of failed implant and/or grafting cases in the aesthetic zone along with implants cases with compromised aesthetic outcomes See the interdisciplinary rehabilitation of patients with severe alveolar defects in the aesthetic zone and the management of patients with advanced periodontal disease involving teeth in the aesthetic zone with significant bone and tissue loss Tidu Mankoo Dr Tidu Mankoo qualified with a BDS from the University of Bristol in 1981 and has a renowned Private & Referral Practice in Windsor, UK, treating Implant, Restorative and Aesthetic cases, particularly complex cases.

16:00	Changing Lives This lecture will look at 3 patients (in the last 2 years) who at the end of their treatment confided in me that I had changed their lives! We will cover our treatment planning and how decisions were made. We will cover in detail the very latest digital tools that allow us to replace the diagnostic wax-up but still are really accurate in real time. I always have before and after models made up so the patient can approve and give consent to very sophisticated treatment plans. My technician colleague Bryan Matthews will demonstrate and explain the giant leap forward this is! He will show how we can be certain that this is as accurate as the old diagnostic wax-up. Learning Objectives Delegates will understand how important treatment planning is! Delegates will understand how important it is for the patient to be able to see the end result before we start. Delegates will understand how this digital software works and how accurate it is. Delegates will understand how important it is to gain medico-legal consent from the patient.

14:00	Introduction to Current Gold Standards for Analog Full Arch in Dentistry The analog full arch restoration remains a cornerstone of prosthetic dentistry, offering patients a dependable and functional solution for complete edentulism. As the field advances into the digital era, the gold standards for analog restorations are defined by precision, durability, and aesthetic excellence. These standards ensure that patients receive high-quality care, resulting in prosthetics that function well and have a natural appearance. The process begins with thorough diagnostic planning and the creation of precise impressions to capture the patient’s oral anatomy. These impressions must be accurate to ensure a proper fit of the final prosthesis. Additionally, the use of high-quality materials for frameworks and prosthetics, such as titanium or high-strength dental alloys, is essential to provide the necessary support and durability. Advancements in analog techniques have further refined these standards, such as PAIT, PARS guides, and cal techniques enhancing the fit, function, and longevity of full arch prosthetics, this allows for increased accuracy and efficiency in the treatment process. This integration helps clinicians achieve more precise results, ultimately benefiting the patient. Maintaining these high standards requires continuous education and adherence to best practices. Clinicians and Technicians must stay informed about the latest advancements and techniques to ensure they can deliver optimal outcomes for their patients. Regular evaluation and adaptation of methods are crucial to uphold the integrity and effectiveness of analog full arch restorations in modern dental practice. Learning Objectives Understand advanced analog impression techniques to accurately record the oral anatomy for full arch restorations. Identify and utilize high-quality materials for the construction of full arch frameworks and prosthetics, with a focus on durability and aesthetics. Learn the principles of designing and fabricating durable and functional full arch frameworks using analog techniques. Develop skills in constructing precise full arch prosthetics, focusing on the details necessary to achieve a high level of fit and patient comfort.
