Key Surgical & Prosthetic Considerations for Soft-Tissue Integrity to Achieve Optimal Esthetic Outcomes – ON IMMEDIATE IMPLANT PLACEMENT
The objective of this 2 days course, is to provide the attendees with a deep theoretical knowledge but more important with a deep management of the periodontal surgery around implants as well as the prosthetic concepts for single tooth immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone in order to maximize the peri-implant soft tissue esthetics around the final restorations – critical element for achieving gingival integration and esthetic success long term.
In this course a live surgery will be performed applying the concept proposed besides a quantity of videos allowing the participants to have a clear overview of the concept.
On the contrary we will also focus, on the recessions around dental implants specially on the anterior implants that have been performed without any CTG. We will discuss the different treatment alternatives to fixing them as well as a classification to visualize the difficulty taking into account the prosthetic and surgical considerations.
