Implants Without Regrets: Biological Risk, Early Intervention, and the Blueprint for Lasting Success

Aims

- To deepen clinician’s understanding of biological risk factors and preventive principles that underpin long‑term implant success.

- ⁠To build confidence in recognising, monitoring, and managing peri‑implant disease within the scope of general practice.

Learning Objectives

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

- Identify key biological and patient‑related risk factors that influence implant outcomes and apply them to case selection and prevention.

- ⁠Recognise early clinical and radiographic signs of peri‑implant mucositis and peri‑implantitis and integrate structured monitoring into routine care.

- ⁠Describe evidence‑informed approaches for preventing and stabilising peri‑implant disease in general practice.

- ⁠Communicate effectively with patients about risk, maintenance, and long‑term expectations to support shared decision‑making.
