Modern clinical dentistry provides us with a myriad of potential solutions in an effort to overcome common problems. All too often we base our decision-making processes on certain factors such as patient choice, operator experience, cost of treatment and predictable outcomes. The British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry is proud to bring you this highly educational day course featuring a host of clinical and laboratory based national and international speakers: In One Room: For One Day only…..
Learn the current concepts, applications and thought processes behind consideration of all options for replacement of the Hopeless Upper Central. This day will comprise of no less than seven highly concentrated, personal and academic viewpoints that will give you balanced argument for what can truly be achieved no matter the option. Lectures will be academically led and the day will conclude with an open floor question and answer session with the speaker panel.
This promises to be an extremely thought-provoking day …..this is your opportunity to find out all the tips and tricks you need to give your patients the best mode of management possible
After tooth extraction, the alveolar ridge undergoes horizontal and vertical dimensional changes. Approximately 50% resorption of the alveolar width and height is commonly seen and the majority of this resorption takes place within the first three months.
This can lead to ridge deformation and other aesthetic complications which may be difficult to fully correct later on.
Placement of a bone graft material into to the socket immediately after tooth extraction (ridge preservation) can prevent volume loss and lead to an optimised hard and soft tissue situation.
Additionally, recent research confirms that the need for additional hard tissue augmentation at implant placement is 10 times less compared to when the socket is allowed to heal naturally.
Learning objectives:
Robert qualified at Kings College, London in 1987. After working in an orthodontic practice in Colchester for four years he moved to Newbury, Berkshire.
Rob then spent the next 14 years working in a busy private practice where he built a reputation for treating complex cases involving cosmetic, implant and orthodontic treatments. At this time, Rob also became involved in teaching and mentoring and has taught many dentists on all aspects of cosmetic and dental implant therapies.
In 2006, Rob moved to Pentangle Dental Transformations – a purpose built centre for dentists to send their patients for cosmetic and complex treatments. Rob now spends his time between treating these referred patients and teaching.
Rob is currently a post graduate tutor for the Oxford and Berkshire deaneries, a mentor and faculty educator for the ADI (Association of Dental Implantology), a mentor and international speaker for the ITI (International team of Implantologists), a Royal College of Surgeons examiner for the implant diploma (RCS Edin), as well as scientific director and president elect of BAAD (British Academy of Aesthetic Dentistry).
He presents regularly at scientific meetings and has published several articles on implant therapy.
In the early days of Implantology treatment was considered successful if Osseo-integration was actually achieved, but this is no longer the case. When replacing teeth in the aesthetic zone our patients increasingly judge the success or otherwise of our Implant treatment using cosmetic criteria. Furthermore, such cosmetically-driven patients often have high expectations as to what can be achieved, and we ignore their expectations at our peril.
The morphology of the edentulous ridge is a major influence upon the final aesthetic outcome when replacing missing teeth with removable dentures, conventional fixed bridgework or Implantology.
Furthermore, as dentists we are often called upon to replace teeth which have been missing for some time, and the resultant ridge defects present significant aesthetic challenges. However, when requesting Implants, our patients assume we can just screw in the new replacement teeth and fail to grasp the importance of the morphology of their edentulous ridge. We can of course deal with ridge defects using pink porcelain, but this restoratively-based modality is not without difficulties.
If we could first bulk out the edentulous ridge using autogenous tissue we can perhaps expect a more aesthetic final result. Autogenous bone grafting is considered the gold standard when restoring lost tissue bulk, but remains a modality that can challenge the skills of even the most dedicated general dentists, to say nothing of the postoperative discomfort to the patient.
Conversely, soft tissue manipulation can often provide a viable alternative to bone grafting and also be less stressful to the patient. Connective tissue grafting offers a less invasive modality than autogenous bone grafting, and is a relatively straight forward technique which most general dentists can learn and subsequently offer in their own practices.
The aim of this presentation is to highlight practical strategies which can be mastered by the motivated general dentist. The techniques described will be comprehensively described and extensively illustrated with clinical cases from the speakers own practice.
At the end of the presentation the delegates will be able to:
Dr Ken Harris graduated with BDS from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in 1982, passed MFGDP(UK) in 1996, finally achieving Fellowship of Royal College of General Dental Practice FFGDP(UK) in 2017.

Ken is a member of the editorial board of the International Journal of Cosmetic Dentistry (IJCD), and despite being a full-time Practitioner, he has penned numerous articles in the dental press while still managing to fulfil a busy teaching schedule both nationally and internationally.
We will be taking a look at various approaches and solutions to the dilemma of the single anterior restoration. We will look at photographic techniques to help the ceramist and show how material choice will have a drastic effect on the outcome . A plethora of disciplines will be discussed , from prepless cases to implant solutions with one goal in mind.

Single tooth implants in the aesthetic zone are one of the most challenging cases to execute well. Attention to detail is paramount for predictable, long-term success. This presentation will outline some innovative techniques and ideas to help classify sites suitable for immediate implants and several cases will be shown, highlighting the importance of pre- and peri-implant provisionalisation and grafting. It will ultimately demonstrate that immediate implants in the aesthetic zone can be a predictable technique when strict protocols and techniques are adhered to.
