Abstract:

This presentation will address the most common prosthetic implant complications in partially edentulous treatments including loose / stripped / broken screws, progression of open contacts and short anterior crowns, “screwmentable” complications, cement induced peri-implantitis, and more. Each complication topic will cover frequency of occurrence, common causes, strategies for prevention, and management.

Learning objectives:

1. Causes of the most common prosthetic implant complications
2. Protocols and techniques to reduce the incidence of prosthetic implant complications
3. Practical management of these complications
