Description:

The real challenges of periodontal and implant surgery don’t arise in your operatory but in your recare. As treatment plans expand from single-tooth replacement to full-arch rehabilitation, the long-term success of these procedures requires tailored home care and maintenance. This course emphasizes the critical role of non-surgical therapies and personalized prevention protocols. Guided biofilm therapy offers a patient-friendly, technology-driven approach for preserving teeth and implants, especially in cases with gingival recession, exposed implant surfaces, and complex prosthetics.

Learn to:

• understand and perform a range of periodontal and implant surgical procedures
• select appropriate materials and techniques for prophylaxis, non-surgical treatment, and maintenance
• recognize local, patient, and environmental risk factors affecting treatment outcomes
• design individualized homecare protocols to support long-term periodontal and implant health

Recommended For:
Dentists, Hygienists, Assistants, Students, Educator

Description:

Rehabilitating oral health, function, and esthetics becomes increasingly complex in the presence of hard and soft tissue deficiencies. This course explores modern approaches to managing socket, periodontal, and peri-implant defects using bone grafts, membranes, biologics, and emerging substitutes. As new materials and techniques enter the marketplace, understanding when and how to use them effectively is critical. Participants will gain practical insights into phenotype enhancement, root and implant coverage, and bone regeneration in a wide range of clinical scenarios.

Learn to:

• understand the etiologies of gingival recession around teeth and implants
• perform atraumatic extractions and preserve or augment ridge anatomy
• select appropriate materials and techniques for hard and soft tissue regeneration around teeth and implants
• recognize and manage intraoperative and postoperative complications associated with mucogingival and regenerative surgery
