Letter from the Editor Welcome to the Summer 2012 issue of Inclusive magazine. As technology continues to grow at a seemingly exponential rate, there is a point when all things start to come together. And that’s a great place to be. While the dental field is not completely there yet — new advancements on the digital front are ever-present — great strides have been made. Take this issue’s contributors. On the theme of “technology on the verge,” Drs. Perry Jones and Tarun Agarwal share how intraoral scanning can significantly improve the quality of dentistry. Another article simplifies the process for digital treatment planning and guided surgery. Our last issue coincided with the launch of the Inclusive ® Tooth Replacement Solution, an exciting, comprehensive approach to tooth replacement that could just revolutionize implant dentistry. Along those lines, Dr. Robert Horowitz discusses the importance of soft tissue contouring and custom abutments in the optimal shaping of the gingiva for successful implant restorations. Another piece reviews parameters for immediate temporization. The three Clinical Tips provide suggestions for properly using the prosthetic guide, prepping and relining provisional restorations, and converting a cemented temporary to a screw-retained restoration. We are also pleased to introduce two new columns. In each issue we will feature a short piece on Small Diameter Implants to keep you aware of the possibilities with mini implants, starting with Dr. Paresh Patel. We will also highlight doctors from around the country taking a moment to recall their first implant case. Sometimes funny, but always meant to communicate the singular point that everyone has to start somewhere, My First Implant features leading clinician Dr. Gordon Christensen in this inaugural installment. Be sure to let us know what you think of our evolving format. Ultimately, our goal is to bring you timely, useful topics — both practical and on the cutting edge — that are insightful about the world of implants, so you can provide the highest quality of care to your patients. Education is key in addressing inhibitions about the learning curve involved with some of these technologies, and that’s one of the things we do best here at Glidewell Laboratories. To take advantage of the courses offered at our state-of-the-art technology center, visit www.glidewellce.com. All the best in your practice, Dr. Bradley C. Bockhorst Editor-in-Chief, Clinical Editor inclusivemagazine@glidewelldental.com – Letter from the Editor – 5
