Modern technology has changed the dynamic of today’s dental practice. Procedures such as implant site enhancement have traditionally been referred to specialists because of the higher associated risk and the difficulty of technique involved. With the introduction of piezo surgery technology, clinicians can now perform those same procedures with an increased margin of safety and even greater surgical precision. Piezo surgery technology enables clinicians to selectively cut only hard tissue (e.g.…

Successful oral rehabilitation often requires hard and soft tissue regeneration for optimal functional and esthetic outcomes. As implant dentistry evolves to become the standard of care, education on the maintenance of bone and soft tissue after tooth extraction is essential. Today’s clinicians are achieving predictable results by grafting extraction sockets for ridge preservation, utilizing the latest membranes and bone scaffolds. Socket grafting following tooth removal is proven to reduce bone loss,…

This course is designed for General Practitioners who wish to improve their knowledge of or perform more minor oral surgeries. This all-day lecture course enables general practioners to expand their oral surgery knowledge and better understand and manage complications and dento-alveolar surgical procedures. Points of Discussion: • The “Art” mandibular Block. A refreshing, new successful approach to accomplishing Regional Anesthesia by blocking the 3rd division of 5th nerve • Anxiety control…

The use of digital technology is becoming more common for treating full arch cases. However, treating a full arch patient is significantly more complex than a single tooth implant. This means efficiency and accuracy play a significant role in success, profitability, and patient satisfaction. Even though both traditional and digital protocols related to TeethXpress work successfully, direct treatment costs and treatment time can be lower using a digital workflow. This lecture…

This all day program is designed for dentists who are interested in learning how to perform simple periodontal surgeries. A general dentist can perform many common everyday periodontal procedures if they attain a “comfort level” about the subject matter. This hands-on course will cover basic periodontal surgery, crown lengthening, and suturing techniques. This course is designed for general dentists who are looking to learn or upgrade existing skills in basic periodontal surgery. After attending this…

Successful oral rehabilitation often requires hard and soft tissue regeneration for optimal outcomes. This course will examine effective techniques for bone grafting and soft tissue enhancements for improved esthetic results around both natural teeth and dental implants. Clinical experience and scientific evidence will be presented to support the materials and techniques demonstrated. This surgical technique course will provide you with the knowledge and skills to successfully incorporate the new procedures into…

Implant dentistry technology is evolving at an incredible pace. This presentation will provide an update on current digital workflow and how it can help eliminate complications and improve success rates. From CBCT to treatment planning software, surgical guide fabrication, implant guided surgery and intraoral scanning, this course will help bridge the gap between virtual and clinical dentistry. All attendees will receive a step-by-step, inclusive syllabus and participate in a hands-on course…

Oral maxillofacial surgeons were early adopters of cone-beam CBCT technology into their offices for wisdom teeth, dental implants, and jaw surgery. With the addition of intraoral or optical scanning of the dentition, it is now possible to use 3D printing for surgical guides for dental implants and jaw surgeries. Due to the customization capabilities of now available technologies and the ability to improve the accuracy of the surgery there is a…
