Columbia Study Club Meeting: Interdisciplinary Approach for Treating the Esthetically Compromised Patient

This continuing education activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the standards of the ADA Continuing Education Recognition Program (ADA CERP) through joint efforts between Columbia University CDM and New York County Dental Society.

Course Description 

The treatment planning of complex cases requires the highest level of knowledge and skill of the treating team. Practitioners must envision the final case before starting in order to know where the goal of treatment will be directed. The orchestration of procedures, including proper sequencing and timing, makes all the difference.

  • 1.5 CE Credits
  • Course: T1021

Learning Objectives

This talk will explore questions facing the team, including:

  • Which teeth to save or extract?
  • Should implants be placed immediately or in a delayed protocol?
  • Should multiple implants be placed in the aesthetic zone?
  • When and how to include orthodontics, if needed, for site development.
  • Should the case be splinted or broken up into separate bridges or individual teeth?
  • How to provisionalize the case throughout treatment.
  • When to immediate load cases vs. serial extraction.
