2nd ITI Education Week London: Modern Treatment Solutions for Advanced Clinical Problems

2nd International Team for Implantology (ITI) Education Week London: Modern Treatment Solutions for Advanced Clinical Problems is organized by International Team for Implantology (ITI) and will be held from Jul 09 - 13, 2018 at Bart's & The London School of Medicine & Dentistry, Queen Mary University London. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 35.5 CE Credits.

Course Description:
Despite the high predictability of treatments with titanium dental implants, long term success and aesthetic outcomes are a continuing challenge in cases of implants placed in areas with significant bone and soft tissue loss. This course will provide evidence-based and up to date treatment solutions for different clinical scenarios where implant placement and restoration is not straightforward. Utilising clinically orientated lectures, workshops, live surgeries, videos and case based discussions, the participant will be provided with the necessary knowledge as well as technical advice/tips starting from initial treatment planning to the delivery of final implant restorations in advanced cases where the lack of hard and soft tissue creates a challenging clinical situation.

Course Topics:
• Digital pathway: from treatment planning to the final restoration.
• Implant provisional restorations for ideal emergence profile.
• GBR: treatment principles and factors for success.
• GBR in aesthetic areas.
• Management of the deficient posterior maxilla: sinus augmentation & short implants.
• Sinus lift: treatment principles and factors for success.
• Management of the deficient alveolar ridge: staged augmentation utilising piezoelectric surgery for autogenous block grafting vs. bone builder?
• Management of the extraction site.
• 2nd stage surgery: treatment principles and factors for success.
• Management of soft tissue defects around implants using autogenous and xenogeneic soft tissue grafts.
• 1-2 live surgeries.
• Case-based presentations and interactive discussions.

Course Objectives:
• Become familiar with the digital pathway that could improve treatment outcomes from initial treatment plan to final restoration.
• Understand and become familiar with the surgical techniques and biomaterials used routinelly for guided bone restoration simultaneously or before implant placement.
• To understand and become familiar with the surgical techniques for soft tissue preservation and augmentation during 2nd stage surgery or after implant restoration.
• Understand and become familiar with the use of piezoelectric surgery.
• Understand the use of short implants vs. sinus lift.
• Develop treatment planning skills through case based presentations.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
