Course Overview

As predictable as implant dentistry has become, complications and failures still occur. This program will help clinicians with proper patient selection, and how to overcome some of the more common challenges and failures that occur post-surgically as well as post-restoratively. Learning which type of grafting material is best for different grafting protocols/objectives and an introduction into a digital workflow with a focus on full arch reconstruction will be discussed.

• Identify potential complications
• Understand how to approach failed grafted sites
• Identify the correct suturing techniques for grafted and non-grafted surgical sites
