Multi Unit Implant Restorations – Module R2 (2026)

This is a series of THREE 3-day courses; TWO of which are on Restorative Implantology and TWO which is on Guided Surgical Implantology which includes design of surgical guides using CoDiagnostiX software. This course contains both didactic and practical components, and the content is strongly evidence-based, aiding the clinical operator to have confidence that their procedures have been validated by research. The courses cover:

• Module R1 – Single Unit Implant Restorations
• Module R2 – Multi Unit Implant Restorations
• Module S1 – Single and Multi-Unit Surgical Guide Design & Guided Implant Surgery
• Module S2 – Guided Immediate Implant, Partial Extraction Therapy and Crestal Sinus Lift, Guided Bone Regeneration & Guide Design

Module R2 covers multi unit fixed AND removable implant supported prostheses, including combined tooth-implant supported prostheses. This includes:

• Prosthetic implant componentry for removable prostheses;
• Effect of cantilevers and effect of splinting of structures;
• Choice of pontics for fixed prostheses;
• Tilted implants and their effect on bone and prosthetic componentry;
• Movements of removable attachment systems and their influence of prosthesis design and implant placement;
• Design and positioning of superstructures (bars) and attachments (straight and angled) for removable prostheses;
• Use of flanges of removable prostheses for lip support;
• Indexed vs. non-indexed componentry for multi unit prostheses;
• Verification techniques;
• Occlusion differences between fixed and removable prostheses.

Hands-on exercises (not all are listed):

• Correcting angulation using angled body Locator abutments;
• Fabricating multi-unit fixture level provisional using non- indexed temporary abutments;
• Ovate pontic site development
• Fabricating customised; impression coping with pontic and taking open tray impression
• Conversion of existing partial denture to tooth-implant supported provisional using Locator abutments;
• Fractured abutment screw removal techniques;
• Critical appraisal, assembling and disassembling of all multi-unit removable and fixed restorative options, includ- ing bars and Locators.
