Over 50% of dental implants require bone augmentation. Regeneration of bone, especially vertical and/or 3-dimensional bone regeneration, is technically very difficult, clinically unpredictable and requires precise planning and execution.
In this 2-day workshop, participants will be taught management of defects requiring bone regeneration for dental implant therapy. From simple socket bone grafting to advanced horizontal (and introduction to vertical) bone defect management will be taught.
Learning Outcomes:
- Explain the thought process of the selection of surgical techniques.
- Recognize the potential risks and challenges when performing bone regeneration.
- Identify surgical technique, biomaterials and autogenous tissue for the management of socket bone graft.
- Demonstrate surgical techniques for the management of moderate horizontal defects using periosteal/lasso sutures.
- Learn advanced surgical technique for the management of severe horizontal defects using Tacks and Screws with Resorbable membrane.
- Management of Complications – real life cases.
