About the course:

Peri-implantitis has been identified in up to 50% of surveyed communities. To decrease the prevalence of peri-implantitis, it is necessary for dental practitioners to identify factors associated with this condition, and render pro-active rather than re-active treatment to decrease the risk of peri-implantitis in our patient populations.

Learning objectives include:

•	Identify various prosthetic and abutment design factors associated with iatrogenic peri-implantitis.
•	Develop appropriate strategies for patient's compliance and effectiveness in their plaque control endeavors.
•	Learn clinical and biological features of the treatment modality known as the 'On One' abutment system, as well as the concept of 'One Abutment One Time'.
•	Recognize future trends in implant design and implant surfaces to facilitate predictable long-term treatment success.
