Course Overview:
This two-day course is designed for dentists looking to provide predictable socket preservation procedures to their patients and wishing to explore simple guided bone regeneration procedures for implant surgery.
The seminar is a combination of lectures, hands on workshops and live surgeries.
The first day will focus on pre-extraction site evaluation, dental implant planning, and site preservation procedures to ensure a smooth path towards surgical implant placement. The second day will focus on simple strategies for guided bone regeneration when there is a horizontal ridge deficiency. Techniques for staged and simultaneous guided bone regeneration with implant placements will taught. Techniques utilising autologous bone, allografts, xenografts and alloplasts will be covered in depth. The course will introduce the use of autologous blood concentrates such as PRF and CGF in regeneration procedures. Different membranes and their indications such as collagen and Ti-reinforced PTFE will also be covered.
