Osseodensification : A Paradigm Shift in Implant Dentistry

Osseodensification : A Paradigm Shift in Implant Dentistry is organized by University of Florida and would be held on Nov 11, 2016 at University Of Florida College Of Dentistry, Gainesville, Florida, United States Of America. This CME conference has been approved with a maximum of 8 Continuing Education Units.

Osseodensification is unlike any other bone instrumentation system in the market today. Unlike traditional bone drilling technologies, Osseodensification does not excavate bone tissue. Rather, it preserves bone bulk so bone tissue is simultaneously compacted and auto-grafted in an outwardly expanding direction to form an osteotomy with compacted dense layer of bone tissue along its walls.

Scientific literature has suggested that dense compacted bone tissue produces stronger purchase for dental implants, higher initial implant stability, higher insertion torque values, and may facilitate faster healing. This CE course combines didactic lecture and hands-on workshop to cover a broad range of applications of Osseodensification in Implant Dentistry.

Course Objectives :

After attending this program the attendee should be able to :
- Learn the rationale and science behind Osseodensification
- Identify indications and contraindications for treatment
- Practice Osseodensification, ridge expansion, and crestal sinus floor elevation.

Course Limit : 15 participants
