Successful implant therapy starts at the time of tooth extraction
Currently, there are a variety of successful techniques available for hard-and soft tissue regeneration. The present lecture will provide you with all necessary information related to extraction socket management and soft tissue management for a less invasive and more successful implant therapy.
Based on clinical complications and wrong decisions the lecture will present how to make the right decisions for handling of extraction sockets, including soft tissue management and implant timing.
The lectures will provide you with a lot of practical information of all steps necessary to achieve an optical pleasing and healthy result.
The next level for hard and soft tissue regeneration in esthetic implants sites
The present lecture will provide a lot of practical information on how to improve volume stability in esthetic areas, to reduce the invasiveness and to improve patient care. This will be achieved by elevating to the next level of hard- and soft tissue regeneration. New GBR techniques using stabilized bone graft materials and new soft tissue substitutes to replace autogenous grafts will be presented.
