After nearly 20 years of the immediate load full arch concept, dentistry has gained an appreciation of the protocols needed for long-term success. Yet this treatment concept is undergoing another revolution with the evolution of definitive restorative materials, the advent of improved intra-oral scanning technology, and in-office printing. This program will review the important foundation concepts for full arch implant-supported prostheses, while updating protocols for current restorative materials, and how evolving technologies can improve the patient experience. This is a must for practitioners who diagnose and perform this complex treatment.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the tried and true concepts that are the foundation for predictable results.
• How the use of zirconia as a definitive restorative material requires modification of particular foundational concepts.
• Discover how current intra-oral scanning partnered with new acquisition devices and in-office printing can provide a prototype prosthesis on the day of surgery.
