Implant

The 11th Congress of the Asian Academy of Osseointegration

On 10th - 11th November 2018, Robert Santosa was in Seoul, South Korea presenting at The 11th Congress of the Asian Academy of Osseointegration (AAO). The meeting was held over 2 days at the prestigious Yugwangsa Hall, College of Medicine Korea University. The theme for the meeting was " The Challenge and Sustainability for the Future of Implant Dentistry"

Robert presented the topic " Prosthodontic protocols for long-term prosthetic success"

The long-term performance of implant-supported prostheses is influenced by various factors such as prosthetically driven treatment planning, to ensure the correct 3D implant positioning and prosthetic design;

the timing of implant placement; soft tissue management; and prosthetic design to manage the possible development of complications. The presentation will propose some advice, clinical recommendations, and alternative treatment options to reduce the risk of complications in daily clinical practice.

As usual, Robert had the jetlag and walked around the beautiful city of Seoul early in the autumn morning here. For more information about AAO, please click here.
