    State of the Art with Sinus Augmentation - Where is the limit? 
    Dr. Ziv Mazorby  Dr. Ziv Mazor
     
    Sinus floor augmentation in the atrophic maxilla for implant placement, is today a well-established procedure. Yet, the long time span from initial surgery to loading of implants is an annoying and discouraging factor for both patients and clinicians.
     
    Several treatment modalities for shortening the time period for bone maturation and osseointegration have been proposed, the most common being simultaneous sinus grafting with implants placement and the use of growth factors in conjugation with new grafting materials.
     
    A total of 2132 implants were immediately placed into the grafted sinuses of 731 patients regardless to the residual alveolar bone height. ...Read the full abstract.
     Mistakes Dentists Make in Marketing for Complex Restorative and Implant Patients
     
    #4: Not Understanding that Your Marketing Creates an Additional
    Financial Asset in the Practice: The Prospect List
     
    The prospect list in a dental practice is almost unheard of by dentists. Every patient that inquires for services ,
    besides the rare certified wacko, should be put into a database to be contacted forever unless they "buy, die, move, or scream get me off your mailing list." This should be considered a "holding tank" for future return on marketing expenditures.
     
    Here's A Little Secret You Won't Read in Dental Economics: Having a prospect list is a business asset that can be sold as part of your business. If you don't want to sell it to the new doctor you can easily sell it to another doctor that will pay for this information ( this list can save another doctor several hundred thousand dollars.....that's just how valuable it is) ...Read the full article.

    More InformationLEASING HELPS YOU SLEEP NIGHTS.
     
    • No more price-sensitive decisions forcing you to buy bargain technology vs. the right technology.
    • No more costly maintenance bills when your equipment ceases to interface to new technology.
    • Feel confident in balancing the needs of your business from both a financial and equipment perspective.
    • Asset and payment protection is available specific to the lease rather than taking from your current practice insurance.An operating lease is not shown on your balance sheet... this results in better financial ratios.

    #5: Lack of Knowledge about New Technologies and Strategies That Allow You to Leverage Your Time
    and Money More Efficiently
     
    The next biggie is not understanding the power of new and existing mediums and new technologies that extend your
    practice's reach and exponentially increase your efficiency at "fishing" (or hunting if you are so inclined) for these large
    cases in the patient population.

    Go down the following list.....and (be honest) check off each technology and strategy that you are aware of AND that you employ on a regular basis in your practice to help get large cases:
    1. Always having the correct message in the market that gets your targeted large case patient to respond

    by Cheryl Anderson
     
    More InformationIf the Plan Fits...
    • Operating Leases are best used on technology and equipment that quickly becomes obsolete. Never worry about owning old equipment.
    • Finance Leases are a fit for financing leaseholds and assets that have a long user life where owning them has benefit.
    • Equipment Sale and Leaseback Programs allow you to turn your equipment into cash, avoiding limited access to working capital.
    • Skip Payments - want to realize a few months' billings before payments start?  No problem.

    MIS Scientific Study:  Soft tissue healing around One Piece (UNO) with full rough-treated implants.
     
    The clinical study evaluates the capability of soft tissue healing around treated surface in one piece screw implants. The study leader is Prof. Bratu Emanuel from the department of implant restorations, University of Medicine and pharmacy, Timisioara, Romania.
     
    Rough-Treated ImplantsThis study comprised six patients, each of them received one or two one piece full rough treated MIS implants, of 10-13mm length, and 3mm diameter, in different regions of the mouth.Rough-Treated Implants
     
    The study demonstrated that if fixed gingival around the implant can be obtained, there is no need for a polished implant neck in order to prevent peri-implant tissue irritation.

     Full Mouth Cases Require FAR MORE than Just Full Mouth Clinical Skills!
     
    Part 1: Doctor, are you "all dressed up" with advanced restorative, cosmetic, surgical, and implant skills but aren't getting the right patients into your practice that will go forward with full mouth care?
     
    If you are highly trained and capable of performing complex procedures like reconstructions and dental implants, the odds are that you are have problems getting as many cases as you would like. You are definitely not alone. You may be missing one or all of some very critical non-clinical keys that make the routine treatment of full mouth cases possible.

     Best Kept Secrets about Leasing
    by Cheryl Anderson
     
    More Information Accounting Advantages: Consider the following:

    · An operating lease is not shown on your balance sheet... better financial ratios.
    · Show higher earnings immediately following an equipment acquisition if you lease. 
    · Less bookkeeping is required on operating leases as the entire payment is shown as a rental expense.

     Smile Vision: Create a steady stream of cosmetic cases
     
    Larry Brooks - Smile Vision
     
    Showing people how they could appear with a more appealing smile is by far the most effective way to create desire for cosmetic dentistry. It creates an emotional impact that words, waxups, mockups or demonstration pictures can never equal. Once people want that new smile, an amazing number will get it.
     
    Smile-Vision has developed techniques that will allow any dental team to take pictures quickly and easily, then outsource them for cosmetic imaging at a reasonable cost. All this goes on behind the scenes without the doctor or treatment staff taking time from their patients. The plan allows a dental office to offer visual case presentations to their patients on an ongoing basis and generate a steady stream of cosmetic dentistry cases.
     
    The Smile-Vision system will help you get all the cosmetic cases you want, without selling.

    View videoDental video: Dr. Schubert Sapian has designed a innovative root removal system that extracts the entire root without sectioning.

    A specialized extraction screw is driven into the largest canal then a cushioned silicone fulcrum tray is placed over the adjacent teeth and a pry bar is used to apply vertical pressure to the root resulting in its atraumatic extraction.

     The Most Common Mistakes Dentists Make in Marketing for Complex Restorative and Implant Patients
     
    Hindsight is 20/20: "In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king." - J.F. Tide

    Just like the old saying goes, personally this rings true for myself and for what clients continually espouse about their experiences before going behind the veil to finally have what works for these cases in the Big Case Program.

    Most of the marketing being done for dentists be it by "dental marketers" or by dentists themselves is the equivalent of the blind leading the blind. This placing of faith in the blind instead of recognizing them for what they are, prevented myself in my early practice days, my clients before they knew any different, and currently prevents many future clients (some who are reading this right now) from seeing more of the cases they are trained to treat.

     Smile-Vision: 4 Tips for Case Acceptance Success
    Larry Brooks - Smile Vision
     by Larry Brooks
     
    Case acceptance (sales) skills need to be constantly practiced and improved upon if dentists expect to have predictable success in getting patients to accept proposals for extensive reconstructive and cosmetic dentistry.
     
    Sales skills are as important as clinical skills when it comes to offering comprehensive treatments not covered by insurance.

     The Most Common Mistakes Dentists Make in Marketing for Complex Restorative and Implant Patients
     
    Believing... "I'm just a dentist, I don't know or need to know anything about marketing. I can completely outsource or hire that task to someone more knowledgeable."

    AKA How the doctor gets easily victimized by advertising sales reps because of a lack of knowledge about the laws of marketing. There are a lot of mistakes being made when it comes to marketing done for and by dentists.

    The #1 and biggest mistake made by dentists when marketing their practice is believing that "I'm just a dentist, I don't know anything about marketing." or even worse, "I don't need to know anything about marketing." This comes with a corollary effect known as, "How the doctor gets easily victimized by advertising sales reps" because of this belief and lack of knowledge.

     Smile-Vision: Simplify Cosmetic and Reconstructive Dentistry
    Larry Brooks - Smile Vision
     by Larry Brooks

    Cosmetic and reconstructive dental cases can be as simple as any other dentistry when the dentist has a repeatable and defined protocol to follow. Many teaching gurus WANT to make those big cases seem difficult when they are not.  
     
    In order to deliver the big ones with predictability the dentist must have crown and bridge basics under control, work with a custom lab and plan every case in a systematic manner that starts with the end result in mind and works backward
    from there. Click for protocol

Success and Failure Rates of Osteointegrated
MIS implants for 6 to 48 months 
by Adi Rachmiel DMD. PhD &  Micha Peled MD, DMD
 
Abstract: Two-hundred sixty-two titanium MIS implants were placed in the mandible and maxilla with follow up of 6 to 48 months. The procedure was carried out by the authors.
 
Implants were placed in: both jaws without a need for another procedure; defective bony areas; jaws with buccal fenestration or dehiscence; in post extraction sockets; after bucco lingual ridge augmentation; after vertical ridge augmentation either by onlay bone graft or vertical distraction osteogenesis; and with maxillary sinus floor augmentation.
 
Conclusions & Summary: The stability of the MIS implants was examined for up to 48 months and was very satisfactory. The overall cumulative success rate was 94.7%.
 
This finding supports that the titanium MIS implants placed either in healthy or augmented bone will achieve satisfactory osteointegration maintained under function over time. ...Read the full article.
