This session will explore severe complications from failing dentition or implants and how the cases were resolved. From this discussion, attendees will see a common theme of how to approach these patients and referrals to result in a reconstruction that is well-accepted by the patient and treating team.

At the conclusion of this presentation, participants should be able to:

Discuss the importance of accurate pre-treatment data collection to allow development of a problem list and treatment plan.
Examine how to communicate delicately with all members of the pre-treatment team.
Review the timing of procedures and development of a final plan prior to initiating phases of therapy.
