Loading Protocols in the Digital Era – Part I: Single Implants and Extended Edentulous Sites
In this lecture, the first of a two-part series, German Gallucci discusses how overall treatment times can be shortened by careful selection of the appropriate loading protocol and the use of digital workflows. Using a series of clinical cases to illustrate major points, he discusses the clinical recommendations of the 2013 ITI Consensus Conference and how digital workflows – digital planning, guided implant placement, and digital impressions – can be used to achieve optimal patient-centric outcomes in implant treatment plans. This presentation covers single implant restorations and implant-supported fixed dental prostheses in extended edentulous spaces.

At the end of this Congress Lecture you should be able to…
- define immediate, early, and conventional loading protocols
- define the concepts of treatment regulators and risk factors, and their relevance to the three types of loading protocols
- list the applications where immediate, early, and conventional loading protocols might be applied to single-tooth implant-supported prostheses
- list the applications where immediate, early, and conventional loading protocols might be applied to implant-supported fixed dental prostheses in extended edentulous spaces
