Forget about the Guesswork ‒ Holistic Risk Assessment of any Implant Case with the SAC Classification
Congress Lecture
Structured Assessment and Treatment Planning
This lecture presents an overview of factors important to achieve predictable long-term results with implant therapy in patients with aggressive periodontitis and is based on a study of 23 patients followed for 7 to 10 years. The importance of preoperative infection control is underlined, with the aim to achieve absence of residual pockets of ≥ 5 mm with bleeding on probing, full-mouth plaque score < 20%, and the extraction of non-retainable teeth. The complexity of treating these patients is often increased by the indication of staged and/or simultaneous bone grafting procedures. By adhering to a strict preoperative infection control and meticulous treatment planning, a high implant survival rate of 98% was achieved after 7 to 10 years.
