Hard Tissue
Hard Tissue Courses Offered:
These courses include the following teaching methodologies: didactic presentations enhanced by video surgery, live surgery observation, case planning workshops that allow you to asses what you have learned, training of your surgical assistant, and hands-on exercises performed on cadaveric specimens and/or simulated anatomic models.
Our intermediate Hard Tissue course is appropriate for clinicians with intermediate to advanced knowledge and experience in surgical implant dentistry, who wish to gain the clinical knowledge and surgical skills to perform guided bone regeneration with implant placement and to perform sinus lift bone graft procedures at straightforward sites. Emphasis will be placed on patient evaluation, anatomic and biologic material science, tissue engineering concepts, soft tissue considerations, and surgical principles related to performing guided bone regeneration and lateral window and indirect crestal sinus lift bone graft procedures. Participants will gain experience with hard tissue grafting instrumentation, sterile operatory set up, and contemporary donor and recipient site procedures that minimize patient morbidity and maximize volume outcomes.
Our advanced Hard Tissue course is appropriate for clinicians with advanced experience in implant surgery, who are looking to gain clinical knowledge required to perform block bone grafting and other advanced procedures for horizontal and vertical augmentation, at both ideal and compromised implant sites. Emphasis will be placed on patient evaluation, anatomic and biologic material science, tissue engineering concepts, soft tissue considerations, and surgical principles related performing hard tissue implant site development using autogenous coticiocanellous and allogeneic block grafts. Participants will gain experience with hard tissue grafting instrumentation, sterile operatory set up, and donor and recipient site procedures that minimize patient morbidity and maximize volume outcomes.
This 5-day “intensive immersion experience” designed for clinicians with considerable experience with peri-implant hard tissue augmentation, who are interested in expanding and elevating their scientific and clinical knowledge, and improving their surgical skills related to performing intra-oral bone grafting and state-of-the-art hard tissue implant site development procedures, in order to increase the level of success and implementation of these procedures within their clinical practices. This course is conducted in a highly interactive environment leading to a profound learning experience.
