Course Intent
|
This course is designed to give clinicians the confidence to
perform soft tissue grafts, appropriate flap design for full and partial
thickness flaps, suturing and advanced bone grafting procedures
upon returning to their offices.
Our structure is a combination of
in-depth lecture, over the shoulder
demonstration and a hands-on
workshop with models and fresh
frozen cadaver heads on advanced
bone grafting for implant
placement. One of the unique features of our course is that we provide
cone beam CT scans and Virtual Implant Placement software
interpretation of every cadaver head to simulate a realistic learning
experience. This is the closest
thing to performing live surgery!
Each participant will receive
a comprehensive manual which
compiles PowerPoint slides from
the lecture. This makes following
the lecture more enjoyable than
having to take detailed notes,
and provides an excellent reference
back in the office after the
course. Each participant will
also receive a personalized
monogrammed scrub which can
be worn in the lab, as well as a
soft sided attaché.

Course Objectives
After completing this course the clinician should be able to
treatment plan dental implants based on prosthetic classifications,
divisions of available bone and classifications of bone density. The
surgeon will be able to provide
appropriate manipulation and
grafting of the soft tissues, and
have exposure to the practical
use of cone beam software
(Virtual Implant Placement).
Finally, the implant surgeon will
have a more thorough understanding
of advanced bone
grafting procedures which will
ultimately improve implant
success, longevity and esthetics
for their patients..

Common Implant
Complications and
Their Management
November 26, 2010
Learning Objectives
- Understand decision tree used to select
treatment modalities for the management
of implant complications
- Know how to properly manage peri-implantitis
- Recognize etiologic factors that may
contribute to implant complications
- Learn how to prevent future implant
complications
This lecture is designed to help dentists in
dealing with common implant complications,
in particular to avoid these complications before
they occur. It will provide the basics of treatment
planning concepts and the mechanism of bone
loss and implant failure; and howt to deal and
prevent these problems. The treatment for implant
diseases/complications include: chemotherapeutic
agents, apically positioned flap with or without
implantoplasty, implant surface detoxification,
guided bone regeneration, soft tissue grafts, implant
removal as well as re-implantation. In addition,
participants will also learn how to perform implant
maintenance care. This presentation will also focus
on discussing many key factors that are essential for
avoiding implant esthetic nightmares. Procedures
used to correct or enhance esthetic outcomes
such as socket augmentation, orthodontic forced
eruption, guided bone augmentation, monocortical
onlay grafts, soft tissue grafts and pink porcelain or
veneer will also be briefly presented.

Recession Grafting Surgery
“Thinking Outside the Palate©”
Most graft surgery for recession treatment can now be done without
palate surgery to harvest free gingival or connective tissue grafts.
Acellular dermis can be used in a simplified technique without tunneling.
New placental membranes bring more options to treating recession defects
due to lost attachment. They are easily placed, do not require suturing, and heal
without infection or inflammation.
Course Objectives for Participants:
- Recognize the prevalence of recession defects in general practice.
- Review anatomy and blood supply of gingival soft tissues.
- Understand where to use specific perioplastic graft techniques to treat recession sites gaining reattachment and root coverage.
- Observe new soft tissue surgery techniques with video.
- Understand the value and use of biological growth factors to enhance soft tissue surgery.
- Enable participants to treat multiple recession sites in different quadrants in a single surgical visit.
