NEW YORK, NY, USA: The Greater New York Dental Meeting (GNYDM) is traditionally an event where the most up-to-date techniques are taught and discussed, and this was no different in 2009. Implants were a hot topic at the event, which took place 29 November to 2 December.

Here is a sampling of the many GNYDM speakers and topics that involved implants:

You’ve Taken Implant Training ... What Do You Do Next? by Lynn D. Mortilla, discussed integrating implants into your practice.

My First Esthetic Implant Case — Why, How & When? by Dr Marius Steigmann explained that success from the esthetic aspect requires bone height and width, soft-tissue architecture and prosthetic restorations close to nature.

Mini Dental Implants to Retain Lower Dentures, by Dr Bruce Lish, showed how mini dental implants can be used to help retain and stabilize a complete lower denture.
