Mastering implantology is an important facet of dental practice if
the dental health professional wishes to be at the cutting edge of
the profession and to offer alternatives to his or her patients. Implantology
should be henceforth considered AN integral part in the planning of
bucco-dental treatments.
Offer a solution for life!
The efficient replacement of missing teeth has always been one of
the essential preoccupations of dentistry. Research in this area has
progressed in a spectacular fashion in the last few decades. The techniques
and materials permitting us to fuse synthetic elements to the maxilla,
thus fulfilling the functions formerly reserved to natural teeth,
are now well established and highly evolved.
Dental implants enable many people to rediscover the pleasure of tasting
food, smiling, speaking, practising certain sports and even sleeping
without having to concern themselves with their prostheses. The perfect
stability of the prostheses, which liberate the buccal mucosa, enables
the patient to rediscover the taste of food and provides total comfort
in all of life’s circumstances.
In slowing the process of the degradation of the bone and muscle structure
of the face, dental implants improve the aesthetic aspect of those
who suffer the consequences of maxillary atrophy. The action of implants
thus helps to preserve and often to restore facial appearance.
Planning the treatment is the key to
success!
Maximal success is assured only when the dental implant is conceived
in such a way as to support the required prosthesis by using an adequate
method in keeping with the anatomic conditions and the health of the
patient.
It is now recognised that the principal cause of failure during treatment
is a lack of practitioner training. Training And the planning of the
treatments is thus the guarantee of success.
The Institut canadien d'implantologie is, in this respect, the place
of learning “par excellence” where the educational program
combines theory and practical sessions with professional and technical
support after graduation.
Acquiring a solid foundation in implantology at the Institut diminishes
the risk of failure and increases the profitability of the professional
who has taken the time to perfect him or herself.
