About this Event
Our comprehensive two-day course is designed to equip participants with advanced site development techniques essential for successful implant therapy across a range of clinical scenarios.
Day 1 focuses on hard tissue development techniques , covering lateral ridge augmentation, advanced ridge preservation, and maxillary sinus augmentation. Participants will gain in-depth knowledge of these techniques to address complex cases requiring solid foundational support for implants.
Day 2 dives into soft tissue development, with a detailed review of soft tissue grafting techniques and implant maintenance practices.
By the end of this course, participants will have a deeper understanding of both hard and soft tissue techniques that enhance implant therapy outcomes. Providers will leave with the skills and confidence to deliver exceptional, quality care to their patients.
