Pathway

Patient Assessment, Diagnosis and Treatment Planning

Additional Diagnostic Investigations

This Learning Pathway addresses the role of additional diagnostic investigations within a prosthodontically driven implant plan. Implant positioning should facilitate the placement of optimal definitive prostheses that fulfill both functional and esthetic demands as well as mimic the natural dentition. By using additional diagnostic investigations, site-specific surgical and prosthodontic requirements can be identified and assessed. This helps to minimize the risk of complications and failures following implant treatment.

On completion of this Learning Pathway you should be able to...

  • recognize indications for additional diagnostic investigations in implant treatment planning
  • describe different additional diagnostic investigations
