Description:

Master the foundational skills essential for successful periodontal surgery in this interactive, hands-on workshop. Working with pig jaws, participants will practice critical incision design, flap elevation, repositioning, and suturing techniques to achieve optimal surgical outcomes around the natural dentition. The course will emphasize anatomical considerations, including periosseal fenestration and incision closure, while teaching strategies for coronally advancing, repositioning, and apically positioning flaps. Participants will also gain insight into surgical instrumentation and suture material selection to improve efficiency and healing outcomes.

Learn:

• to design and execute precise surgical incisions for periodontal access
• techniques for effective and atraumatic flap elevation
• methods for flap repositioning, including coronal, lateral, and apical advancement
• suturing methods to ensure stable flap closure and promote healing
