Pitfalls of placing and restoring implants

May 21, 2021
Implant specialist Dr. Robert Miller has been practicing implant dentistry long enough to understand the many challenges. He explains why he prefers the Ditron Dental system to other options.

How can dental clinicians overcome the challenges of implant dentistry? After 35 years in the field, Dr. Robert Miller’s answer is training, training, training. He believes this will help clinicians become proficient in implant dentistry and begin to overcome some of the challenges.

Dr. Miller said mistakes are often made early during diagnosis and treatment planning and not so much during surgical execution. Dr. Pamela Maragliano-Muniz asks what some of the common mistakes are, and one of the most common is dentists taking on cases that are too advanced before they’re fully trained.

The implant system Dr. Miller recommends, after working with all major implants systems, is Ditron Dental. Watch his discussion with Dr. Pam about how to avoid implant mistakes, and why he prefers the Ditron Dental system.
