Learning outcomes:
Upon completion of this course the audience will understand how to:

• Describe patient selection criteria and ease of treatment using Nobel Biocare implants and components.
• Discuss treatment planning and restoring any missing tooth situation.
• Demonstrate implant surgical placements step-by-step and the prosthetic protocols using the various prosthetic components.
• Explain selection of abutments, and creating Procera® C&B&I restorations.
• Focus on safe, simple and predictable procedures and guidelines for implant and prosthetic solution therapy.
• Explain how to create a provisional restoration.
• Cement a provisional restoration and develop immediate function.
• Fabricate a Procera® crown.
