Description

Over the span of 4days, participants will engage in an immersive learning experience that blends structured classroom instruction with practical, hands-on training. Detailed discussions will explore criteria for selecting appropriate patients and step-by-step surgical protocols. As modern dental implant procedures increasingly rely on advanced tools, the course will also delve into new techniques. Topics will include CBCT imaging, digital treatment planning platforms, intraoral scanning, 3D-printing for diagnostic planning and surgical guides, and the application of autologous concentrated growth factors such as PRF and tuberosity blood. Prior to the course, each attendee will participate in a series of prerequisite foundational lectures which will be conducted online.

Course Objective

This course is designed to equip you with the skills, strategies, and confidence to perform implant surgeries seamlessly in your own practice. By combining essential knowledge with real-world techniques you can put to work right away. This intense 4 day course will give doctors training in the following categories:

• Evaluate patient candidacy for dental implant treatment through proper case selection
• CBCT review of scans to analyze anatomical structures and guide implant treatment planning
• Conduct comprehensive medical assessments relevant to implant surgery success

• Apply knowledge of dental anatomy to ensure safe and accurate implant placement
• Differentiate between implant designs and surface treatments, including the benefits of hydrocarbon removal
• Perform fundamental implant surgical techniques, including osteotomy preparation and implant placement in both simulation and live-patient scenarios
• Execute immediate implant placement protocols and utilize custom tissue formers to support esthetic soft tissue outcomes
• Apply effective suture techniques to ensure optimal wound closure and healing
• Incorporate biological materials such as Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) and bone marrow aspiration from the Maxillary tuberosity to enhance regenerative outcomes
• Perform both lateral and crestal sinus augmentation procedures with attention to anatomy and technique
• Recognize and manage post-operative complications to ensure patient safety and implant success
• Deliver provisional and final prosthetic restorations with an understanding of restorative workflows
• Utilize digital dentistry tools such as intraoral scanners and guided surgery software to streamline implant workflows
• Establish long-term maintenance protocols for monitoring implant health and preventing peri-mucositis and peri-implantitis
• Translate knowledge and clinical experience into actionable skills that can be implemented immediately in general practice
