Advanced Implant Design for Early Stability,
Restoration of Function,
and Predictable Esthetics

July Cruise

July 24 - 31, 2011

7-Night Alaskan Cruise
                  ^{leaving from}      Seattle
^{Sunday - Sunday}
 

Presented by
Hoda Yousef, D.M.D.

16 CE Credits
course given on days at sea

COURSE CONTENT:

The lecture will concentrate on these areas:     

(a) Biomechanical principals essential for initial implant stability and the importance of implant taper design and thread design.

(b) Importance of the design of the implant retention screw for reliability of prosthetic fixation.

(c) Significance of the use of controlled laser micromachined implant surface microtexture on the implant collar for successful endosseous incorporation; the integration of epithelium, connective tissue and bone at the implant surface.

(d) Clinical application of these innovations as demonstrated by greatly reduced crestal bone loss, predictable soft tissue management, and excellent long-term function and esthetics.

Hoda Yousef, DMD, MS, completed a prosthodontic program at the
University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey on May 1996.  The
program consisted of a combined prosthodontic certificate and a masters degree in oral biology. Dr. Yousef is currently employed at New Jersey Dental School as an Associate Professor in the Restorative Department of prosthodontics and biomaterials.  She is Course Director for the Pre-clinical Fixed Prosthodontic Course, is greatly involved in the Post Graduate Prosthodontic Program and works as a prosthodontist in faculty practice. She has made numerous presentations at the International Association for Dental Research, Academy of Osseointegration, and the American College of Prosthodontics as well as international programs.  She is an associate member of the Greater New York Academy of Prosthodontics and a lecturer on implant dentistry.  Dr. Yousef’s research interest include implant prosthodontics and she has several publications stemming from her implant research and lectures internationally on proper placement and restoration of Implants
