Crawford Bain, Specialist in Periodontology, Prosthodontics and Restorative Dentistry, will be speaking to dental hygienists and dental therapists at the ADI Team Congress 2021. About his session, he comments:
“I will review the current evidence to provide an update on which patients are considered compromised and at a higher risk of dental implant failure. I will also share my own 39 years in specialist practice, placing, restoring and maintaining dental implants and offer delegates some advice on how to manage unrealistic patient expectations.
“Where there are any warning signs that a patient may expect too much from dental implant treatment, concerns need to be communicated with the dentist. From here, the team can work together to encourage improvement in oral health or attitude from the patient before proceeding with dental implants. A collaborative approach to managing the patient’s expectations will deliver much more effective results.”
