The Anterior Implant
Predicting Esthetics & Provisionalization Workshop
Saturday December 2, 2017
We are honored to have Dr. Kan present at Esthetic Professional Dental Education Center in Tarzana, CA. He is a world
renowned expert in the Anterior Implant. Implant restorations present a unique challenge compared to natural teeth.
Over the past decade, one of the biggest challenges in implant dentistry has been the development of peri-implant
gingival esthetics, particularly in the anterior maxillary region. Peri-implant esthetics is defined as the presence of
harmonious gingival architecture around the implant restoration and the surrounding dentition. This day program
will teach participants how to diagnose, predict and provide optimal implant results in the esthetic zone. Implant
restorations in the esthetic zone can be compromised if the tissues surrounding them are not ideal. The esthetic implant
provisional is a critical component for evaluating and modifying the tissues surrounding an implant. The purpose of
this portion of the session will be to present implant provisional techniques and allow participants to make an anterior
implant provisional.
