Advanced implant dentistry (international course)

This comprehensive course will give you detailed knowledge of current clinical concepts and research data. Patient assessment and treatment strategies for advanced cases are presented. 
Lectures and live demonstrations will illustrate ridge preservation techniques, implant selection and placement as well as subsequent healing times and prosthetic protocols, all with special focus on esthetics. Bone and soft tissue regenerative procedures will be discussed in an evidence-based approach. Guidelines for the choice of restorative materials including fabrication of CAD/CAM reconstructions will be provided.
