\"\"<\/a>Implant dentistry has evolved significantly since Per-Ingvar Br\u00e5nemark first introduced the idea of osseointegration to North America in the 1980s. This paradigm shift in treatment purpose has led to a transition from primarily integration and survival goals to prioritizing biologic and esthetic goals.<\/p>\n

Enter Dennis P. Tarnow, DDS, and Stephen J. Chu, DMD, MSD, CDT, who have worked for three decades as clinicians, instructors, and researchers in domestic and international continuing dental education. The relationship of this world-renowned surgeon and world-renowned prosthodontist duo working hand-in-hand has been an asset to their practice.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is difficult to be an expert in both surgery and prosthetics since there is so much to learn and know,\u201d Dr Chu explains. \u201cThe best part of working in the same environment is that we can treat the patient without that individual having to run to different offices to accomplish the same goal.\u201d<\/p>\n

“When both clinicians are together, the treatment transition from surgery to prosthodontics is seamless.”<\/p>
