Description
Resources

Dental implants are a successful and predictable treatment option for missing teeth, where most patients and clinicians seek this treatment to replace missing teeth. Favorable implant outcomes depend greatly on adequate bone and soft tissue for restoratively-driven implant placement, long-term function, and optimal esthetics. For the practicing clinician, predictability of graft materials is extremely important where they must be biocompatible, easy to use, and provide structure and function to support dental implants. This course will update the practicing clinician on advances in socket augmentation techniques and materials, as adjuncts to our implant surgical techniques.

Course Objectives

At the completion of this level, learners will be able to:

Recognize objectives and criteria for increasing ideal implant placement with site development.
Identify grafting techniques to regenerate deficient alveolar bone sites in preparation for implant placement.
Understand the benefits of different regenerative materials for socket augmentation.
