Key Insights from the ADA Q4 2025 Economic Outlook The latest Q4 2025 Economic Outlook from the American Dental Association (ADA) Health Policy Institute highlights a pressing trend for U.S. dental practices: a "fiscal squeeze". While consumer demand remains steady, the cost of operating a practice is rising significantly faster than reimbursement rates. 1️⃣ The Mechanics of the "Fiscal Squeeze" The ADA report identifies dual pressure points that are tightening practice margins across the country: Rising Overhead Costs: Prices for...

A Critical Review of Current Implant Protocols 1. Introduction Full-arch rehabilitation has evolved from delayed loading protocols toward immediate function solutions. At the same time, the clinical focus has shifted from a purely osteointegration-driven approach to prosthetically driven planning, in which tooth position and smile design dictate the surgical strategy. Today, predictable outcomes depend not only on implant placement, but on a comprehensive understanding of restorative space, biomechanics, and long-term maintenance. 2. Analysis of Restorative Space and Biomechanical Limitations The...

The world of dentistry is undergoing a profound transformation. One of the most significant shifts we are witnessing is the rapid adoption of digital dentistry, which is steadily replacing traditional analog methods in clinics, laboratories, and even dental schools worldwide. But this raises an important question: Is digital dentistry truly necessary—or is it just another passing trend? After decades of successful analog practice, many professionals wonder whether the digital transition is essential. To make an informed decision, we must first...

In implant dentistry, few topics generate as much debate as the choice between cemented and screw-retained restorations. Having been trained during the early years of modern implantology, I have experienced both approaches firsthand — and the ongoing controversy continues to fascinate me. From “Old School” to New Protocols My initial training was very much “old school”: most restorations were cemented, especially when UCLA castable abutments became available. At that time, restorative protocols resembled traditional crown-and-bridge dentistry, where cementation was the...

Restoration of implants in the aesthetic zone presents a unique set of clinical and technical challenges. Achieving a predictable, functional, and aesthetic outcome requires meticulous planning that begins well before implant placement. It’s a question that has sparked extensive discussion in the literature — but despite the wealth of information, many clinicians still face avoidable complications due to a lack of proper planning. Restoration Planning Starts Before Implant Placement When approaching a new implant case, one of the most critical...

Dear colleagues and readers,I’m Dr. Bernardo Grobeisen, and in my experience as both a clinician and lecturer, true success in implant therapy goes far beyond the surgical outcome. Recently, my university students and I conducted a review of the key criteria used to evaluate the success of dental implants. One thing that stood out to me was how much weight is placed on the state of osseointegration. Many of the articles we reviewed emphasized the relationship between the implant platform...

Hey, Doc. We get it—keeping your patients happy is harder than getting them to floss regularly. But don’t worry, we’ve got your back. Here are five no-BS tips to take your patient satisfaction from “meh” to “wow” faster than you can say “open wide.”1. Stop the Waiting Room PurgatoryLook, no one likes waiting. Not at the DMV, not for their Amazon package, and definitely not in your waiting room. Keep things moving like a well-oiled machine, and your patients will...

A quick online search is often the first step most people take when searching for a local service, and this includes dentistry. A patient may type in "dentists near me" or "best dentist in [city name]" when they're on the hunt for a new oral care provider. The question for dental practices is: will your name show up at the top of those search results?Local Search Engine Optimization (SEO) plays a pivotal role in determining the answer. With the majority...
A groundbreaking study has merged cutting-edge technology with dental implant analysis, shedding light on stress distribution within the innovative All-on-4 concept. By combining photoelastic stress analysis with CAD and RP techniques, researchers crafted accurate 3D models to simulate implant placement. Findings reveal tilted implants in All-on-4 systems reduce stress concentrations, while shorter cantilevers enhance implant success. This study not only unveils biomechanical insights but also introduces novel approaches to implant assessment.
In the realm of modern dentistry, the All-on-4 concept has gained significant traction for its high success rates in full-arch fixed prostheses. A recent study aimed to delve into this success by investigating the stress distribution within the All-on-4 system, particularly focusing on the impact of tilted distal implants and varying cantilever lengths. The success of full-arch fixed prostheses (FFPs) supported by implants is well-established, with high patient satisfaction rates. However, the restoration of atrophic edentulous mandibles presents challenges due...
