Univ. Prof. DDr Gabor Tepper (AT)<br />

Dr Rudolf Fürhauser (AT)<br />

Univ. Prof. DDr Gabor Tepper (AT)<br />

is the head of the General Outpatient Clinic at the Bernhard Gottlieb University Dental Hospital<br />

in Vienna, Austria. His educational background includes a degree in medicine and specialist<br />

training in dentistry. After graduating from university, DDr Tepper attended postgraduate courses<br />

in implantology, bone augmentation and esthetic dentistry at the UCLA School of Dentistry in<br />

Los Angeles, USA. He then became Deputy Head of the Department of Oral Surgery at the<br />

University Dental Clinic of the Medical University of Vienna. He holds a postdoctoral lecture<br />

qualification with a special focus on clinical and anatomical risk management in <strong>dental</strong> implantology.<br />

Currently, DDr Tepper is responsible for the postgraduate training program in oral surgery<br />

at the University Dental Clinic in Vienna. In addition, he runs a private <strong>dental</strong> practice specializing<br />

in implantology, oral surgery and esthetic dentistry. DDr Tepper is the President of the<br />

Academic Board of the Swiss Management Centre. He has received twelve national and <strong>international</strong><br />

awards, published scientific papers in various trade journals and textbooks and has held<br />

more than 100 lectures in the field of implantology.<br />

Immediate implantation:<br />

Different concepts and provocative cases *)<br />

Today, the concept of immediate implant placement after tooth extraction represents an essential part of dentistry. Through<br />

immediate implantation, the number of surgical interventions can be kept to a minimum, patient discomfort is drastically<br />

reduced, alveolar bone can be spared from resorption, cost effectiveness and chair time are influenced positively and patient<br />

satisfaction is improved. But what looks very easy when performed by a specialist can prove quite tricky sometimes.<br />

A number of rules have to be followed in order to prevent complications and failure. <strong>The</strong> presentation focuses on these<br />

details in a very practical way and demonstrates the do’s & don’ts of immediate implantation as understood and practiced<br />

today by means of several clinical cases.<br />

Dr Rudolf Fürhauser (AT)<br />

was born in Vienna, Austria, in 1959. After studying medicine, he worked as a general practicioner<br />

for several years. In 1989, he received his degree in dentistry from the Vienna University<br />

Dental School and opened a private <strong>dental</strong> surgery in Purkersdorf, Vienna. From 1990 to 2004,<br />

Dr Fürhauser was Assistant Professor at the Prosthodontic Department of the Dental School of<br />

Vienna. He has been a member of the Academy of Oral Implantology since 2004 and currently<br />

runs a private practice together with Doz. Dieter Busenlechenr, Prof. Dr Robert Haas, Prof. Dr<br />

Georg Mailath-Pokorny and Prof. Dr Georg Watzek in Vienna. His main areas of focus include<br />

implant prosthetics, phonetics, esthetics, immediate implant restoration and biomechanics.<br />

Single-tooth and full-arch restorations using CAD/CAM<br />

technology – landmarks and protocols *)<br />

Standardized protocols are essential for the reconstruction of the teeth’s functions – for esthetics, phonetics and mastication.<br />

In the presented concept, the initial status of the patient is recorded precisely and changed in a standardized way if necessary.<br />

This process requires landmarks and treatment protocols. CAD/CAM procedures enable the desired shape to be transferred to<br />

the definitive reconstruction, which is very important for the predictability of treatment success.<br />

Wolfgang Boer (DE)<br />

PD Dr Andreas Bindl (CH)<br />

Wolfgang Boer (DE)<br />

was born in Gelsenkirchen (Germany) in1959. He studied at the universities of Montpellier<br />

(France) and Frankfurt am Main (Germany) and received his degree in dentistry from the<br />

University of Bonn (Germany) in 1991. He ran a private <strong>dental</strong> practice in Hilden (Germany)<br />

before being appointed scientific assistant at the Department of Prosthodontics of the University<br />

of Bonn, a position he held from 1992 to 1994. Since 1994, he has been the owner of a private<br />

<strong>dental</strong> surgery in Euskirchen (Germany). He has been the General Secretary of the Managing<br />

Committee of the DGÄZ (German Association of Esthetic Dentistry) since 2000 and is a member<br />

of numerous <strong>dental</strong> federations as well as of the editorial board of “Ästhetische Zahnheilkunde”<br />

(European journal of esthetic dentistry). W. Boer published over 50 papers on the topic of<br />

esthetic dentistry, focussing on direct resin restorations, full-ceramic restorations, bleaching and<br />

step-by-step procedures. He has lectured at over 200 events in Germany and many other countries.<br />

PD Dr Andreas Bindl (CH)<br />

studied <strong>dental</strong> medicine at the Free University of Berlin, Germany, and received his doctorate in<br />

1994. After graduating from university, he worked in a private <strong>dental</strong> practice in Berlin. He then<br />

became an assistant at the Department of Tooth-Coloured and Computer-Aided Restorations of<br />

the Clinic for Preventive Dentistry, Periodontology and Cariology at the Centre for Dental<br />

Medicine of the University of Zurich, Switzerland. In 1996, he became clinical and pre-clinical<br />

instructor for restorative dentistry, restorative computer dentistry, periodontology and endodontics.<br />

In 1997, Dr Bindl was appointed Assistant Professor and Head of the Department of Tooth-<br />

Coloured and Computer-Aided Restorations at the Clinic for Preventive Dentistry, Periodontology<br />

and Cariology. He is employed on a teaching assignment in the field of restorative dentistry and<br />

restorative computer dentistry at the medical faculty of the University of Zurich. In 2007, he took<br />

over the Department for Tooth-Coloured and Computer-Aided Restorations, which he now runs<br />

as a private practice. In addition, he works part-time at the Clinic for Preventive Dentistry,<br />

Periodontoly and Cariology in Zurich.<br />

Esthetics in direct restorative procedures with composite:<br />

<strong>The</strong> camouflage trick<br />

<strong>The</strong> secret to successfully restoring anterior teeth with composite resin lies neither in the correct selection of shades nor in the<br />

application of a special layering technique. <strong>The</strong> “invisible” filling does not really exist, as we will probably never be able to<br />

produce a synthetic material that is capable of fully mimicking the optical properties of naturally grown tissue. <strong>The</strong>refore,<br />

certain tricks are required to disguise the transition along restoration margins. <strong>The</strong> lecturer uses two ways to achieve this goal:<br />

the imitation of shade anomalies and the mimicking of natural surface texture.<br />

Before starting to fabricate a restoration, the different characteristics of the natural tooth need to be studied in depth, and<br />

this knowledge needs to be applied in the fabrication process. An essential pre-requisite for practicing esthetic dentistry, not<br />

only in conjunction with composites but also with all other techniques, is learning to see! In this context, the ageing criteria<br />

of natural teeth are identified, based on which a checklist is established whose items can be ticked off successively. This helps<br />

to ensure predictable restorative results.<br />

Clinical aspects of chairside CAD/CAM restorations<br />

CAD/CAM systems (for example the CEREC ® 3D system) that can be used for the chairside production of all-ceramic restorations<br />

are an interesting option for both the dentist and the patient. Ceramic materials for CAD/CAM processing, their indications<br />

as well as the clinical performance of CAD/CAM-fabricated restorations (veneers, inlays, partial crowns and crowns) are<br />

discussed in this lecture. Further developments are highlighted.<br />

In implant planning, the CEREC CAD/CAM system and a cone-beam CT (CBCT) system can be usefully combined, enabling<br />

the dentist to analyze all dimensions of the bony structures. Optical impressions of the edentulous areas and the adjacent<br />

teeth are obtained with an intraoral camera directly in the patient’s mouth. After the generation of a 3D model, the virtual<br />

implant crown is designed. This data is combined with that obtained with CBCT. Proper implant planning should take the<br />

desired prosthetic outcome into account. A surgical template fabricated using a CAD/CAM system will assist with implant<br />

placement. A new development is the production of CAD/CAM implant superstructures in one appointment.

Since 1990 he has been co-owner with his brother of a full-service <strong>dental</strong> laboratory in Florence,<br />

where he exclusively manages the ceramic department.<br />

He is engaged in research and didactic activities for the development of high-strength ceramic<br />

materials. He also holds lectures at congresses and conducts continuing education courses.<br />

Michele Temperani has co-authored various articles published in national and <strong>international</strong> trade<br />

journals and magazines.<br />

New esthetic opportunities in the fabrication of metal-free<br />

restorations<br />

In the past few years, patients have become increasingly interested in esthetic restorative procedures. As a result, the demand<br />

for all-ceramic restorations has risen greatly. By employing innovative ceramic components, such as the new translucent lithium<br />

disilicate materials, we can offer new esthetic options for the creation of exceptional, true-to-nature restorations even<br />

when conditions are not ideal for an excellent outcome. <strong>The</strong> need for an exchange of information between the patient and<br />

the clinician and between the clinician and the technician are demonstrated by means of the step-by-step documentation of<br />

several clinical cases involving anterior teeth. Finally, the characteristics and advantages of the latest generation of metal-free<br />

materials are demonstrated.


Ass. Prof. Dr Stefen Koubi (FR) / Hilal Kuday (TR)<br />

Ass. Prof. Dr Stefen Koubi (FR)<br />

Following his graduation from the University of Marseille School of Dentistry in 1998, Dr Stefen<br />

Koubi worked as a clinical assistant at the Department of Stomatology of the Hôpital Louis<br />

and the DEA (postgraduate study program) diplomas at the department headed by Prof. de<br />

Lumley at the Hôpital Nord, he earned a doctorate in <strong>dental</strong> surgery. In November 2001, he<br />

became an assistant at the Department of Conservative Odontology headed by Prof. Koubi,<br />

University Clinic Marseille. In January 2002, he opened a private <strong>dental</strong> practice in Marseille. In<br />

November 2004, he received a university diploma in oral implantology, and on 21 April 2008,<br />

he was appointed Assistant Professor at the Department of Conservative Odontology of the<br />

University of Marseille School of Dentistry. Since 2009, he has been the owner of a private <strong>dental</strong><br />

practice in Paris. Dr Koubi is the author of various reports which have been published on a<br />

national and <strong>international</strong> level. Moreover, he has lectured at different European esthetic academies.<br />

Hilal Kuday (TR)<br />

received his degree in <strong>dental</strong> technology from Istanbul University (Turkey) in 1999. After a training<br />

period of two years, he worked in his own laboratory in Istanbul. Between 2003 and 2007,<br />

he cooperated closely with the Ivoclar Vivadent training team, lecturing on topics such as<br />

“Harmony in nature”, “Metal-free restorations”, “IPS e.max System”, etc at Ivoclar Vivadent’s<br />

International Center for Dental Education. Since 2007, he has been running his own training<br />

centre and laboratory in Istanbul, Turkey. Hilal Kuday has held lectures and conducted workshops<br />

in the USA, South Africa, Croatia and Turkey.<br />

Esthetic approach:<br />

Minimum loss of biological structure – maximum esthetics<br />

Due to biological, biomechanical and esthetic reasons, bonded ceramic veneers are the solution of choice in the restoration of<br />

anterior teeth. <strong>The</strong>y have a prognosis similar to that of implant restorations. However, the success of this type of treatment<br />

remains deeply dependent on the operator. Over the past decade, particular emphasis has been placed on facilitating and<br />

standardizing the fabrication of laminate veneers in order to achieve reproducible results and make them less operator<br />

dependent. Within the framework of treatment planning, the fabrication of a provisional, which has to be approved by the<br />

patient, represents an essential step. <strong>The</strong> provisional can also be used as a control and reference in the fabrication of the final<br />

restoration. In the lecture, we will also discuss the management of non-vital teeth and the placement of fiber posts using<br />

conservative treatment procedures. In addition, we will show that the concept of partially bonded restorations can also be<br />

applied for more complex cases, e.g. in the rehabilitation of teeth with severe abrasion and erosion. <strong>The</strong> complete reconstruction<br />

of teeth with implants using the same materials will also be shown. <strong>The</strong> esthetic expectations of patients seem to be very<br />

similar. When discussing appearance, they usually indicate a lot of details. <strong>The</strong>refore, we have to analyze patient requirements<br />

by asking the right questions. Dentists and <strong>dental</strong> technicians have to communicate with the patient and interact understandably<br />

to gather the information required to create customized restorations. Modern <strong>dental</strong> photography can be used to<br />

enhance communication, even though indication, the selection of materials and technical experience continue to be of crucial<br />

importance.

CEREC ® – Esthetic illusions or reality:<br />

“CAD/CAM abutments”<br />

In the oral rehabilitation with multi-component implants, we can identify two potential problem areas: the primary problem<br />

area (implant abutment) and the secondary problem area (abutment crown). <strong>The</strong>se two areas are not bacteria-tight.<br />

Moreover, complete removal of excess temporary cement cannot be achieved. Very frequently, however, the desired esthetic<br />

result cannot be attained with zirconium oxide abutments.<br />

Customized abutments fabricated with IPS e.max ® using the CAD/CAM technique may provide a viable solution to this<br />

problem. In this lecture and workshop, the planning, CAD/CAM-fabrication and customization of abutments will be discussed<br />

and their esthetic implementation will be presented.

Periodontal therapy and peri-implantitis treatment using<br />

the new Vector Paro System<br />

<strong>The</strong> characteristic feature of the Vector system is a ring-shaped oscillating resonance body driven by an ultrasonic motor in a<br />

<strong>dental</strong> handpiece. An instrument attached at 90° offset to the handpiece longitudinal axis is therefore moved up and down<br />

linearly, passively driven by the ring. Due to this patent registered technology, an efficient removal of concrements and<br />

cementum can be provided without any damage of the cementum and dentin surface. In addition, the use of hydroxyapatite<br />

particles increases the degree of efficiency with virtually painless treatment.<br />

<strong>The</strong> new Vector Paro device combines the classical scaling technology with a highly sophisticated handpiece for periodontal<br />

treatment. <strong>The</strong> complementing instruments enable a broad range of therapeutic aspects.<br />

<strong>The</strong>rapy of periodontitis and peri-implantitis, recall and prophylaxis.

Extensive composite restorations ranging from cusp<br />

replacement to direct crowns<br />

In the restoration of single teeth, composites have become a viable alternative to full ceramics. Scientific data increasingly<br />

support the use of resin-based composites even for large restorations including cusp replacement or full crown build-up.<br />

However, the clinical procedure imposes a range of challenges on the operator. Matching colour and translucency in the fabrication<br />

of anterior restorations, creating the correct occlusal morphology and controlling shrinkage stress in posterior restorations<br />

are only some of the points that must be addressed by the dentist. <strong>The</strong> lecture focuses on the critical clinical steps,<br />

explains the most commonly encountered failures and gives numerous clinical tips and tricks.

Surgery and prosthetic restorations in the esthetic zone *)<br />

<strong>The</strong> placement of <strong>dental</strong> implants in the esthetic zone is one of the most challenging fields of implantology. Detailed knowledge<br />

of the various concepts on which the surgical and prosthetic techniques are based is essential. To avoid an unfavourable<br />

outcome, each patient selected has to be carefully analyzed. <strong>The</strong> amount and quality of bone in the horizontal and vertical<br />

dimension of the anterior maxilla, the biotype of the gingiva, the exposure of gingiva during smiling and several other parameters<br />

have an influence on the type of treatment protocol that needs to be chosen. <strong>The</strong> techniques necessary to create an<br />

ideal situation for a successful outcome include atraumatic extractions, preservation of the socket, formation of papillae with<br />

ovate pontics, bone grafting in all directions, connective tissue reconstruction and grafting. An understanding of the principles<br />

for maintaining a healthy biological width is necessary. In this presentation, a team approach (including surgeon, dentist<br />

and <strong>dental</strong> technician) will be demonstrated. Furthermore, the speakers will address implant treatment in the anterior maxillary<br />

esthetic zone, presenting both theoretical aspects and case reports.<br />

Computer-aided esthetics – fiction or reality?<br />

Today, a lot of restorative procedures are primarily driven by esthetics. We have to keep the loss of healthy tooth structure to<br />

a minimum and fulfill the high expectations of our patients. <strong>The</strong> challenge is to help patients visualize the restorative result<br />

prior to starting the treatment in order to ensure patient compliance. When esthetics are of prime importance, the patient<br />

must be actively involved.<br />

By means of the digitization of the initial situation, a virtual wax-up can be created on the PC screen following diagnosis. This<br />

enables the final result to be visually represented in a three-dimensional manner. On-screen design allows a realistic, reversible<br />

preview of what will be achieved in the course of the treatment.<br />

Following virtual design, a mock-up can be milled from polymer blocks. Polymer materials offer a suitable range of shades,<br />

provide sufficient esthetics in the short-term, possess adequate physical properties and are easy to adjust. <strong>The</strong>y allow a blueprint<br />

of the definitive situation to be provided. Apart from showing the changes to the teeth, the mock-up also enables the<br />

effect of the restoration on the gingiva and the soft tissues including the lips as well as the entire smile to be evaluated.<br />

A choice of ceramic materials with sufficient strength and the optical properties to achieve the promised result is essential.<br />

Already in the past, lithium disilicate ceramics were offered in a wide range of translucencies and shades. In the future, this<br />

material will be further improved and thus allow even more natural-looking results to be achieved.

<strong>The</strong> secret world behind the canine tooth:<br />

function and esthetics<br />

<strong>The</strong> importance of occlusion and function, especially in the posterior teeth, for all parts of the stomatognathic system, is generally<br />

dramatically underestimated. <strong>The</strong> knowledge of occlusion and function has been investigated and laid down in countless<br />

scientific papers. A thorough diagnosis is the key element for treatment planning and therapy. <strong>The</strong> general aim for all<br />

patients, independent of the Angle class, is to ensure the least muscle activity during nocturnal clenching and bruxing. It is a<br />

fact that the most anterior guidance serves this goal best. All eccentric contacts in the molar region must be seen today as<br />

pure pathology.<br />

In diagnosis and treatment, the skull-related mounting of the upper cast and the <strong>joint</strong>-related mounting of the lower cast are<br />

pre-requisites. <strong>The</strong> realization of the fundamental aspects of gnathology will be demonstrated step by step. Esthetics are not<br />

only important for the front teeth, but, at least in the upper jaw, as far as to the first molars. When creating a computeraided<br />

sound occlusion, esthetics evolves by itself.<br />

Long-term follow up documentations, up to 35 years, will demonstrate the effectiveness of this logistic approach. <strong>The</strong> question<br />

whether excessive bruxers can be treated long term, predictably and successfully without chipping, with all-ceramic<br />

restorations will be discussed in detail.

<strong>The</strong> synergistic use of <strong>dental</strong> materials choosing a team<br />

approach: clinical and laboratory aspects<br />

Nowadays we have many different materials that can be used in the restoration of teeth. <strong>The</strong> dentist and technician must<br />

approach the treatment as a team and know how to combine the different restorative materials. An esthetic, biological and<br />

functional outcome will benefit from their synergistic use. <strong>The</strong> concepts of esthetics and resistance should always be on our<br />

mind.<br />

CEREC ® – Esthetic illusions or reality:<br />

“CAD/CAM abutments”<br />

In the oral rehabilitation with multi-component implants, we can identify two potential problem areas: the primary problem<br />

area (implant abutment) and the secondary problem area (abutment crown). <strong>The</strong>se two areas are not bacteria-tight.<br />

Moreover, complete removal of excess temporary cement cannot be achieved. Very frequently, however, the desired esthetic<br />

result cannot be attained with zirconium oxide abutments.<br />

Customized abutments fabricated with IPS e.max ® using the CAD/CAM technique may provide a viable solution to this<br />

problem. In this lecture and workshop, the planning, CAD/CAM-fabrication and customization of abutments will be discussed<br />

and their esthetic implementation will be presented.

Single-tooth and full-arch restorations using CAD-CAM<br />

technology – protocols in daily routine<br />

In this workshop, standardized protocols will be presented which are helpful for the reconstruction of the teeth’s functions –<br />

for esthetics, phonetics and mastication. <strong>The</strong> initial status of the patient is recorded precisely as it provides invaluable information<br />

and will be changed in a standardized way if necessary. This process requires landmarks and treatment protocols. <strong>The</strong> socalled<br />

“try-in bridge” occupies a central position in creating a form considering all functions prior to the design of the final<br />

framework. By means of CAD/CAM technology, this form can be transferred to the definitive reconstruction, which ensures<br />

high predictability and patient acceptance.
