Description

About Dr. Emilio Argüello:Dr. Emilio Argüello obtained his dental degree, specialty training in periodontology, and Master of Science in Oral Medicine from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston, MA. Dr. Argüello is Board Certified and a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry. He has conducted extensive clinical and basic science research in periodontology at The Forsyth Institute and Harvard University in Boston. He serves as a core faculty at the Harvard University School of Dental Medicine in the post-gradute periodontology program. He has co-authored textbooks as well as several scientific publications in peer review journals; lectures extensively nationally and internationally in addition to serving as a reviewer of the Journal of Periodontology and for the International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry among others. He also serves a Committee Chair at the Academy of Osseo-integration. Dr. Arguello has made and impact in the dental industry in the last 15 years in the fields of business management, technology development, research and academics. He continues to collaborate with other specialists and industry leaders, locally, nationally and internationally for the constant improvement of the profession in benefit of patient care. Abstract:While the industry have focused in implant fixture macro and micro designs for the last 50 years in order to have more predictable osseointegration, the general understanding of such implant designs could be confusing to the profession, and the clinician may not be aware which implants may be more suitable for long-term success. More over, no much research has been done on implant site preparation with regards to cell behavior and cell response during drilling of the implant osteotomy. This course will address such changes to the cell structure during implant site preparation at the cellular level and mechanical level. New technologies will be discussed as well as practical protocols to be ready to use in clinical practice today to increase bone cell protection and minimize cell damage. Objectives:1. To understand the damage caused by traditional drilling protocols on implant site preparation. 2. To understand how new technologies can minimize damage to the cells on implant site preparations. 3. To understand how macro and micro designs of dental implants can influence long-term implant success. 2 CE Credits*Food included*Sponsored by Loocid Inc.
