Prof. Dr. Stefan Ihde was born in 1962 in West Germany and studied Dentistry at Würzburg University from 1982 to 1987. After delivering his doctoral thesis in 1988 and working as dentist in the West German Army, he opened his first clinic in Uetliburg / Switzerland in 1994.
From the beginning he focussed only on fixed restaurations and never delivered a removable denture to any of his patients. From 1996 to 2006 he worked with lateral basal implants and already in an immediate functional loading protocol. Since 2006, he has developed the Technology of the Strategic Implant® which allows treatments for virtually all patients, without bone augmentation and again in an immediate functional loading protocol. Since 1994 he has placed more than 50.000 dental implants and equipped them with fixed prosthodontics.
This is an old video, and I understand the benefits of immediate load implants. But why do you need so many implants (10-14) just for the upper jaw to hold a denture? When there are other methods such as All-on 4, 5 or 6 to do the same thing?
osteoclats are mutinucleated giant cells derived from blood stream and osteoblasts are only present in the bone differentiated from bone progenitor stem cells
very interesting lecture , but i have a question we concluded that implant surface is of no importance so we do not need to use very expensive implant, so if we respect the principle of bone and maintain the cortical bone around implant we can use cheap implant with high success rate
