Individualized implants - a new treatment option for extremely atrophied jaws? Report of the first cases treated in Switzerland (Langstone, 21 October 2026)

Discover a groundbreaking approach to full-arch dental rehabilitation at the upcoming seminar, **"Individualized Implants - a new treatment option for extremely atrophied jaws? Report of the first cases treated in Switzerland."** Scheduled for **21 October 2026** at **The Coldra Court Hotel in Newport**, this evening event runs from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM, beginning with networking refreshments at 19:00 followed by the main lecture at 19:30. Hosted by Dr. Raid Ali, the session offers dental professionals a unique dive into cutting-edge implantology.

The lecture is led by renowned implantologist **Dr. Jürgen Weber Branca (MSC, MICOI)**, who brings nearly 40 years of clinical expertise. Dr. Weber Branca will explore the clinical realities of severe alveolar bone atrophy—stemming from historical challenges such as early widespread extractions—and why conventional implants, invasive augmentations, or zygoma implants often fall short. He will present promising data from the last eight years surrounding patient-specific, 3D-manufactured individualized implants, demonstrating how they provide a minimally invasive alternative for both upper and lower jaws while adhering to foundational principles of osseointegration and immediate loading.

Attendees will gain actionable insights into the surgical workflow, including 3D planning, guided placement, bone reduction, and soft-tissue management using collagen membranes. By the end of the session, delegates will be equipped to evaluate the current evidence, benefits, and long-term outcomes of patient-specific implants. Pricing is free for ADI Members, £75 for non-member clinicians, technicians, and companies, and £25 for dental therapists, nurses, and practice managers. Exhibitor opportunities are also available for ADI Company members at £350 plus VAT.
