About The Webinar
In this webinar Dr de Oliveira will discuss everything you need to know about implant connections. What are conical connections and why use them? What could happen if I use a "flat on flat" connection? I've used a lead in bevel implant for years, why switch? Dr. de Oliveira will answer all these questions and more.
CE Learning Objectives:
- Doctors and their team will learn the difference between lead in bevel, conical and flat on flat connections.
- Doctors and their team will learn the effect of connection length and screw loosening.
- Doctors and their team will learn which connections best prevent micro movement and micro leakage
