Course description:  Why should I take this course?

Severe horizontal and vertical bone atrophies have always been one of the most challenging situations to overcome in implant  dentistry. Throughout the years, different reconstructive techniques have been described, but all of them have the same common denominator: high morbidity rates.  Flap necrosis, wound dehiscence with exposure, infection of the augmented bone and resorption, are some of the main complications of ridge augmentation procedures.

 A modified autologous split block (Khoury) technic, in combination with particulate allogenic bone chips, through a tunneling access, without crestal incisions, provides very predictable result in the reconstruction of severe horizontal and vertical deficiencies with very minimal soft tissue morbidity. The utilization of piezoelectric surgery to harvest and split autologous block grafts minimizes the postoperative complication and increases the predictability of the procedure. 

 This small group, interactive, didactic and  hands-on course is  designed for all those practitioners willing to improve their skills in hard and soft tissue reconstructive procedures. This course will allow the participants to return to their practice more confident and with a whole new concept on how to deal with severe bone deficiencies in any region of the mouth. 

 Learning Objectives:

-Bone biology related  to bone augmentation procedures. Blocks and particulate bone chips from Autologous and Allogenic sources. 

- The enhanced biological effect of enamel matrix proteins (Emdogain) in ridge augmentation and soft tissue healing. 

-Hard tissue surgical approaches in bone reconstructive surgery: Tenting, Ti Mesh, bone blocks, split bone blocks (Khoury technique). 

- Management of soft tissue for predictable horizontal and/or vertical ridge augmentation: Tunnel Approach, Rotated palatal flap, Kazanjian's vestibuloplasty, Free gingival Graft and sub-epithelial connective tissue graft. 

- Horizontal and Vertical  Bone Augmentation Protocols in the different areas of the jaws.

-Harvesting and Splitting autologous bone blocks utilizing Piezoelectric Surgical devices. 

-Bone block fixation and stabilization techniques.
