The PathwayZ® Full Arch Therapy allows restorative clinicians to continue on the road to competency with a comprehensive program on full arch therapy.

Module 1 - Introduction to Full Arch Therapy

07 Feb 2026 - 07 Feb 2026

09:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Program Description:

Patients with debilitated or missing dentition often seek treatment to quickly regain their confidence and quality of life. Immediate full-arch restoration can be an excellent solution for meeting patient demands and expectations. This program is an introduction to full arch therapy. It will include a review of current demographic data regarding patients that may be candidates for full arch therapy and a review of the literature that supports immediate loading of dental implants in full arch rehabilitation.

Program Objectives:

At the completion of the program, participants should be able to:

• Review current demographic data regarding patients that commonly require implant therapy.

• Describe common disease co-morbidities associated with edentulisum.

• Identify benefits and limitations of overdentures, bar overdentures, and hybrid prostheses.

• Review the literature that supports immediate load full arch implant therapy.

• Outline the immediate load protocol and prosthesis given.

Module 2 - Diagnosis for Full Arch Therapy

07 Feb 2026 - 07 Feb 2026

10:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Program Description:

This program is designed to review the important steps regarding data collection for full arch implant therapy. Aspects of the evaluation include radiographic and physical examinations, esthetic analysis, and functional considerations. Patient preferences include patient desires, finances and clinical parameters. Upon establishing a diagnosis, the clinician can develop and communicate a definitive treatment plan to the patient in an organized and well-developed fashion.

Program Objectives:

At the completion of the program, participants should be able to:

• Identify the most common patient populations that would benefit from full arch therapy.

• Recognize risk factors in treating patients with terminal dentitions.

• Identify the importance of A/P spread for full arch therapy.

• Identify anatomic structures radiographically that can affect the A/P spread of a full arch prosthesis.

• Understand how developing prognoses affects treatment planning for full arch therapy.

Module 3 - Treatment Planning Considerations for Full Arch Implant Therapy

07 Dec 2026 - 07 Dec 2026

11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Program Description:

This presentation is for the restorative dental team to develop a deeper understanding of treatment planning considerations for full arch implant therapy. At the consultation appointment, treatment options are presented to the patient that address patient preferences. The importance of clear communication between the restorative team, the surgical team, the dental laboratory, and the patient will be reviewed in an effort to optimize treatment outcomes.

Program Objectives:

At the completion of the program, participants should be able to:

• Discuss how treatment planning and presentation can positively or negatively affect the patient's perception of an immediate full arch procedure.

• Understand the role each member of the implant team play in the treatment planning process.

• Appreciate the surgical and prosthetic phases of treatment for full arch therapy.

• Present sources for financial assistance for the proposed treatments.

• Discuss the importance of clear communication in treatment planning for immediate full arch procedures.

Module 4 - Fabrication of Full Arch Fixed Provisional and Definitive Prostheses (TSV Protocol)

07 Feb 2026 - 07 Feb 2026

01:00 PM - 02:00 PM

Program Description:

This program will present a step-by-step approach to the fabrication of full-arch fixed provisional and definitive prostheses for edentulous patients or patients with debilitated dentitions. Diagnosis and treatment planning principles will be reviewed, along with indications and contraindications for treatment. One specific prosthodontic protocol for immediate occlusal loading with full arch prostheses will be illustrated, as well as, one specific protocol for fabrication of definitive full arch prostheses.

Program Objectives:

At the completion of the program, participants should be able to:

• Identify the components and materials needed for fabrication of an immediate full arch provisional restoration.

• Illustrate one specific step-by-step protocol for the fabrication of immediate full-arch provisional prostheses following the RevitaliZe® Patient Solutions.

• Evaluate clinical parameters such as lip support, phonetics, and aesthetics of provisional prostheses prior to fabrication of definitive prostheses.

• Illustrate the prosthodontic procedures for design and fabrication of definitive prostheses with BellaTek® Frameworks.

Post Graduate Bonus Module - Maintenance and Problem Solving for Full Arch Implant-Supported Restorations

07 Feb 2026 - 07 Feb 2026

08:00 PM - 09:00 PM

Post Graduate Bonus Module

This program will include discussion of frequently encountered procedures associated with short- and long-term care for patients who have full arch implant-supported restorations. The topics to be discussed include: self-care instructions to be given to patients; routine procedures and instruments which are safe and effective for maintenance of dental hygiene around dental implants; parameters for determining the need for periodic removal of a complete arch prosthesis; decision making related to replacement of prosthetic screws, and problem solving.

Program Objectives:

At the completion of the program, participants should be able to:

• List instructions that should be given to a patient who has a full arch restorations

• Describe the frequency of professional maintenance appointments appropriate for patients with full arch prostheses.

• List and describe instruments which are safe and effective for debriding and polishing dental implants, abutments, and restorations.

• Describe the frequency at which radiographs are appropriate for monitoring the status of dental implants.

• Describe problems which may occur and methods for their resolution.

The curriculum begins with a series of four (4) self-study webcasts, followed by a two-day skill development course held at a ZimVie Institute. Because all members of the dental implant team play a vital role in follow-up care and professional maintenance of implant therapy, a fifth webcast module (Post-Graduate Module) has been created for the entire staff of PathwayZ Full Arch RevitaliZe® Series graduates.
