Speaking Engagements by Dr. Wes Mullins…
Mining Titanium
Today more than ever, the entire dental team needs to understand the options patients have concerning dental implants. Patients are more informed now than ever before, and require excellent results. Most dentists only restore single implants and are not fully confident in the options for patients that need multiple implants. This program will discuss the systems that can be implemented immediately that help to properly plan and present implants to patients. It will discuss how to handle everything from questions patients ask over the phone to questions your patients have before, during, and after treatment. How do restoring doctors become the “quarterback” and driving force to create a restorative-driven treatment plan that surgeons can follow? After completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Train your entire dental team to prepare for dental implant restorations
- Present implants to patients that turn “No” into “Yes!”
- Perform needs analysis (Fixed vs. Removable)
- Determine when to immediate load patients
- Make surgical guides and CT scans work for you
- Incorporate a dental lab into your Team
Understand new lab technology that is moving faster than ever!
Treating the Endentulous Ridge with Zirconium Hybrids
Full-contour zirconia restorations are quickly becoming the hot topic in the dental industry. Recent advancements in CAD/CAM technology have brought years of know-how to implant dentistry. Are hybrids constructed of acrylics and metal substructures a thing of the past? Can full-contour zirconia solve problems? During this program, Dr. Mullins will present an overview of zirconia’s history in the dental field, bringing to light what laboratories and dentists have learned about how to treat this not-so-new material. Surgeons will learn how to avoid pitfalls of placement of implants for hybrid restorations. How can guided surgery improve restorative outcomes? Restoring doctors will learn the step-by-step process of full contour zirconium hybrids restorations.
