Implant Retained Removables:The Least-Stressful Replacement Option
When faced with either partial or full edentulism, the options that are available to most patients are often limited to either conventional dentures, which are poorly retained, or implant-retained fixed prostheses. These prostheses can be very expensive, complicated, and stressful for the dentist. Implant retained removable dentures are a wonderful “middleground” option. The only problem is that they require knowledge and comfort with all the tiny parts and pieces needed for successful execution.
In this entertaining and highly practical presentation, Dr. Gupta simplifies this process, providing a simple, step-by-step guide from the new patient consult all the way to final seating.
Learning Objectives:
This course is ideally positioned as a full-day course with a hands-on component. If needed, it can be compressed to a half-day course. Content is relevant to dentists and their teams.

How Is It That Some Patients Can Afford a New TV, but They Can’t Afford a Root Canal?
Dental case acceptance and refusal often cannot be rationally explained. Our profession has taught us that the ability to smile and properly function is tremendously valuable, yet we often find patients seemingly incapable of understanding such value. Instead of negatively judging these patients, it is important that we understand what is actually going on inside our patient's heads at the time when complex dental recommendations are made. By understanding our patients, we will become much more successful at getting them to understand us and realize the value of what we have to offer.

Learning Objectives:

- Discover the value in starting the new patient interview during the initial phone call
- Return to your office with immediately actionable tools that will get your patients to say "yes" to complex full mouth treatment
