Course OverviewTooth extraction often leads to problematic losses of bone volume, especially in the esthetic area and in the posterior maxilla, where the sinuses can significantly expand. This course will detail the most up-to-date methods for bone and for soft tissue augmentation, and will explore the biological rationales that support the chosen techniques. A special focus will be put on the biomaterials available on the market, their qualities, defaults and indications. The topics covered will include sinus lifts, crestal guided bone regeneration, 3D bone grafts, and extraction socket management in the esthetic area (with immediate or delayed implant placement).

A large number of 3D videos will illustrate the course,as well as hands-on.

After this course, you will...→ know how to manage extraction sockets.→ be updated on techniques for bone and soft tissue augmentation and their rational of use.→ know how to increase success rates with sinus lifting.→ have exercised crestal bone and soft tissue augmentation.→ have experienced bone graft cases in 3D!
