DNTL-DENT0202 - Perio and implant weekend: Integrated strategies in implant dentistry

Managing extraction sites to optimize future dental implant placement presents both clinical and biological challenges. This comprehensive, evidence-based course is led by two board-certified periodontal surgeons — experts in periodontal surgery, ridge augmentation procedures, and biomaterials — and is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and clinical skills needed for predictable ridge preservation and augmentation outcomes.
The didactic component will delve into the fundamental principles of bone grafting, biomaterial selection, and barrier membrane use. Participants will gain a deep understanding of grafting materials, membrane characteristics, and suturing techniques, with a focus on decision-making protocols tailored to individual clinical scenarios. Key surgical techniques will be reviewed, including alveolar ridge preservation, guided bone regeneration (GBR), and horizontal and vertical ridge augmentation. Common complications and their management strategies will also be discussed in detail.

This section represents the Lecture In-Person part of the course.
You can choose to take it solely, without the hands-on session and so, by adding this section you would have registered for the Lecture In-Person only.
If you wish to take the hands-on version, please scroll down and add DNTL-DENT0202-003 to your cart before checking out.

• Understand the fundamental biology of bone remodeling and resorption as it relates to post-extraction healing and future implant placement.
• Identify and classify alveolar ridge defects in edentulous sites to determine appropriate treatment strategies for implant site development.
• Evaluate and differentiate between various bone graft materials and barrier membranes, including their biological properties, indications, and handling techniques.
• Learn how to effectively combine grafting materials and membranes for optimized regenerative outcomes.
• Recognize potential complications associated with ridge preservation and augmentation procedures and apply evidence-based management strategies.

The hands-on portion of the course will focus on developing technical skills and surgical techniques related to socket grafting, ridge augmentation, and GBR. Participants will gain practical experience in handling various bone graft materials and barrier membranes, and learn how to effectively combine these biomaterials for optimal regenerative outcomes. Through simulated exercises, attendees will refine their surgical approach and enhance their confidence in managing extraction sites for successful implant placement. By the end of this course, participants will be equipped with the scientific rationale, technical proficiency, and clinical protocols necessary to manage extraction sites effectively using the latest evidence-based regenerative techniques.

This section represents the hands-on part of the course, Surgical foundation to prosthetic planning.

• Perform alveolar ridge preservation, socket grafting, and guided bone regeneration techniques on simulated models, addressing both hard and soft tissue deficiencies.
• Demonstrate proper suturing methods to achieve tension-free, primary closure in grafted and augmented sites.

This course delves into the connection between prosthetically-minded implant treatment planning and the available surgical interventions. We will examine how digital technology aids in diagnosing and planning the optimal restoration, seamlessly integrating this information into the surgical phase of treatment. The hands-on portion of the day will provide practical experience in basic digital treatment planning using DTX Studio software, followed by implant placement using a guided approach and temporary restoration fabrication.
