Master Clinician Program in Implant Dentistry - Session II (Mar 12 - 15, 2025)

Master Clinician Program in Implant Dentistry - Session II is organized by Global Institute for Dental Education (gIDE) and will be held from Mar 12 - 15, 2025 at Vienna, Wien, Austria.

Description:
Increase your confidence in the treatment of partially or completely edentulous patients by learning the standard, advanced, and esthetic protocols for placing and restoring implants in this 1-year, evidence-based, post-graduate certificate program taught by world-class faculty. This Hands-On Training program in Implant Dentistry is conducted over 4 classroom sessions with case reviews and 3 online modules supported by an interactive online community and exam assessments. The small, interactive classroom is designed for learning through lectures, hands-on workshops, and live surgery observation.

Curriculum:
During Session II all aspects of soft tissue management and grafting before, during and after implant placement will be discussed as well as the complications seen with these procedures. The hands-on workshop in fresh pig jaw models will highlight these procedures using microsurgical instruments and sutures. Advanced implant prosthodontics will be covered with lectures on full-mouth implant restorations, and mixed teeth/implant cases.

Day 1:
Biology and science of periodontal plastic surgery around teeth and implants
Clinical protocols to regain and thicken soft tissues around teeth and implants
Proven protocols for root coverage procedures
Mucogingival procedures before, during and after implant placement to increase keratinized, attached gingiva and gingival thickness
Strip surface palatal grafts, subepithelial palatal grafts, collagen soft tissue substitutes and allograft skin grafts. Indications and results
