ANZAOMS Pre-ASM Workshop
This workshop explores state-of-the-art approaches in the management of oncologic patients, focusing on implant surgical and prosthetic protocols that optimize both survival and quality of life. Cutting-edge techniques in jaw reconstruction with implants are highlighted, emphasizing functional and aesthetic outcomes through the integration of microvascular surgery, digital planning, and biomaterials. The program also addresses aesthetic considerations around dental implants, with a focus on challenging clinical scenarios requiring meticulous soft- and hard-tissue management. Finally, treatment strategies for extreme atrophic ridges are presented, showcasing novel implant protocols that redefine the boundaries of rehabilitation, including zygomatic and pterygoid implants.
