This two-day intensive hands-on course will mark its 20th cohort, providing delegates with in-depth knowledge and practical skills in soft tissue periodontal plastic surgery around dental implants. With over 200 past participants, this course has empowered clinicians to apply these techniques in daily practice, enhancing patient outcomes and long-term implant success
Aims & Objectives
• Deliver hands-on training in the latest techniques for achieving optimal soft tissue outcomes around dental implants.
• Enable delegates to identify and diagnose potential soft tissue challenges before implant placement.
• Provide insights into correcting soft tissue issues post-treatment.
• Demonstrate various periodontal plastic surgery techniques to enhance aesthetics and implant longevity.
