On my way to CHicago Midwinter meeting.  Last case was fun for me....Microscope Assisted Immediate extraction and implant placement for tooth 14.  Low Level Laser at end....Implant was a 4.5 by 13mm HiOssen...maybe could have gotten away with 4.0 by 13 mm but the PIezo helped me get the tooth out nicely, laser disinfection and immediate with cortical stabilization of the palate.  Grafted the jump gap but it was small.....On my way ...

Hello Folks,   Here's a quick case study that I would like to show.  Many of you know me as the locator guy (I actually do more than that but it is a niche that I have created).  I have had people ask and also criticize that unsplinted implants should and can not be loaded immediately.  Mark and I know this to be untrue but we all know that change is accepted slowly in dentistry.  Yes, it is a paradigm shift.   &n...

Thought I would share this case from yesterday. The photos and case were done under the dental operating microscope, and the images put into my Mac Practice software and a screen shot taken....sorry if they are smaller in this format. This was a case where I extracted the upper right first molar 2 years ago, grafted it with allograft and waited as the patient was unsure whether they wanted any restoration let alone an implant mainly for financial...

Hi guys,   I have a 22 implant but CT shows that ridge narrowing to 2.46mm at the apex but widens again beyond that point.  Patient has low lip rise.  Defect appears to be on the palatal.  Should I graft on buccal anyways and place the 3.5 Hiossen mini or graft and wait.  Is it even possible given that the original 22 was rotated and the space left in the arch is only 4.8mm?   Thoughts?   Sokhi...
