08AAP-FCE07: Narrow Diameter Implants: Expanding Your Options

Narrow diameter implants (NDIs) add a valuable and unique treatment modality, thus increasing the opportunity to use implants in patients who would not be candidates for conventional implant treatment. Two types of NDIs will be discussed in this presentation, which will provide a thorough review of all uses of such implants. Step-by-step procedures will be shown to familiarize the participants in the surgical, immediate temporization, final prosthetic treatments and ridge augmentation procedures with block grafts, and guided bone regeneration. Home-study references and materials including clinical photographs will be provided to each participant.
