Abstract: In Spectrum Implants October 2022 I introduced a few guidelines that I use to decide to splint implants within a fixed restoration or not. Let’s test them against the root causes of mechanical problems that put our patients at risk of biological problems such...
Abstract: The Reverse Margin System (RMS) designs satisfy the need to tolerate the three-dimensional errors inherent to prosthesis installation safely. The root causes of these errors include those intrinsic to the indirect production of the prosthesis called Prosthesis Dimensional Error (PDE), the need for the...
Overly grandiose and poorly substantiated titles risk the take-away message that Dental Implants don’t work, as the “casual” reader may not investigate beyond the title and critically analyze the full publication. Such a conclusion could prevent dentists from considering dental implants as part of many...
Abstract: This article reveals the perspective of a dentist who has spent 40 years providing oral health care for his patients, doing focused research to identify the root causes of prostheses installation related complications, and sharing his results with colleagues. To his dismay, he found...
Abstract: This slide presentation is a concise overview of how current prostheses installation systems expose patients to multiple risk factors for peri-implant disease and treatment failure. Dr. Svoboda identifies the root causes of these complications and reveals how innovative abutment-prosthesis designs and installation protocols can...
Abstract: What prompted the development of the prosthesis installation system commonly referred to as Screwmentation? What problems were the clinicians trying to solve? Were they successful in making prosthesis installation better for patients? The author's review of the screwmentation system found it non-optimal for single...
Emil LA Svoboda PhD, DDS, Anit Sharma DDS and Dharminder Cheema DDS Spectrum Implants 2022 Mar/Apr, V13,N2:50-64. & www.ReverseMargin.com May 22, 2022. Abstract: Intra-oral cementation is a common process for attaching crowns and bridges to natural teeth and dental implants. While fixed prosthetics are cemented onto natural...
I welcome all your questions and comments. I hope this “Implant Essentials: The BIG Questions” segment of this journal will help guide you to a better understanding of your craft, so you can do the best possible job for your patients. Besides, it would probably...
Citation: Svoboda E.L.A. Fixed Prosthetics: Position, Yaw, Pitch and Roll. ReverseMargin.com/articles: Published Oct 2021;1-5. What is an optimized fit and what does that have to do with Position, Yaw, Pitch and Roll? In dentistry, connection stability is important from a mechanical and biological point of view....
As knowledge about dental implant treatment increases, there is a compelling need to add new words and phrases to the dental glossary to support easier and more precise communication, and to open new frontiers for dental research. The intent of this publication is to define...
