Immediate implant protocols have been gaining momentum across the globe as patient demand for shorter treatment times and professional desire for ever-improved outcomes drive the development of techniques and materials. Despite impressive advancement within the field so far, there are still several potential challenges that need to be overcome for the best treatment results. Dr Andrew Legg, a highly experienced clinician with a specialist interest in dental implantology and a co-director of the Campbell Academy in the UK, comments:

“Immediate full arch reconstruction has become a popular treatment option across the world, but successful outcomes rely on careful patient selection and robust treatment protocols. Not all patients are suitable and it’s important that clinicians have the knowledge and the confidence to make good decisions about patient treatment.”

Dr Legg will be one of several highly anticipated speakers at the ITI Congress UK & Ireland this October. He will be presenting as part of the main programme on Saturday October 2, exploring “Immediate full arch reconstruction for clinicians and patients”. He says:

“I will be covering aspects of full arch reconstruction with dental implants and what options are available to clinicians and patients. We will then focus on immediate full arch reconstruction and discuss how these treatment modalities affect patients’ quality of life.”

The session will help delegates to identify the treatment options available in different full arch reconstruction cases, demonstrating the importance of clear treatment protocols. Dr Legg adds:

“I will highlight key points in terms of patient selection and execution of treatment, as well as look at the factors that can help increase patient quality of life scores throughout their treatment. I would hope delegates will be better informed on how to assess their patients for the different treatment options available for full arch reconstruction. I also hope delegates better understand how to select and treat patients who wish to have immediate full arch reconstruction.”

The ITI Congress UK & Ireland 2021 will have it all – world-class speakers, a comprehensive educational programme for the whole team, a trade exhibition and the chance to relax and have fun with friends and colleagues. Dr Legg highlights the main reasons he believes professionals should attend:

“The ITI Congress offers delegates a range of vastly experienced speakers who are discussing a variety of implant topics. Historically, the ITI has been evidence-driven in its approach and this shows no sign of changing. This Congress will provide delegates with tried and tested methods to place and restore implants, as well as an opportunity to mix with like-minded clinicians. This will not only help them develop personally, but also lead to better outcomes for their patients.”
