Overview of the upcoming "Treating an Edentulous Patient in Today's Environment" course at AIID HQ in Washington DC on October 22nd.

1. “TREATING AN EDENTULOUS PATIENT
IN TODAY’S ENVIRONMENT: BETTER
FASTER AND MORE COST-EFFECTIVE”
@aiidglobal October 22, 2014

2. Why Take This Course?
• The rapid increase of the aging population and fully edentulous
patients has placed the implant overdenture at the forefront of
implant dentistry.
• However, achieving a long-term cost-effective successful treatment
outcome requires complete understanding of different treatment
plans and designs.
• This course has been designed to provide comprehensive training
in diagnosis and treatment planning of fully edentulous patients so
clinicians and dental technicians can serve the aging population
better.

projected to nearly double,

2012 to 84 Million in 2050.
