THINKING OUTSIDE THE PALATE SIMPLIFIED RECESSION GRAFTING Course Objectives-In this course you will be able to: See how much less complicated this technique is compared to Pin-Hole and tunneling. Recognize the high prevalence of recession defects in dental practice populations, adding new treatment to increase your practice productivity. Describe how to use acellular dermis to treat recession gaining root coverage, keratinized gingiva and generate reattachment. Develop treatment plans with soft tissue grafts to achieve predictable results. Learn the principles for successful flap design, acellular dermis placement and soft tissue suturing with hands-on soft tissue model surgery. Course Topics: Anticipation and prevention of complications in soft tissue grafting. Covering root caries with acellular dermis, avoiding class V composites. Using 1% metronidazole antibiotic gel to manage soft tissue healing complications. Learn the key steps in successful soft tissue augmentation of implant sites with acellular dermis. Role of new platelet-rich growth factors (alpha-prf) and Emdogain in root coverage and soft tissue reattachment. Live surgery videos of single-site and multiple-site soft tissue graft surgery. Key principles in generation of soft tissue attachment. Use of modified surgical technique to overcome the difficulties of molar recession. Evidence basis for socket preservation grafting with acellular dermis barriers and growth factors. Effects of INFUSE (rhbmp-2) on soft tissue healing. Importance of keratinized gingiva adjacent to implants and how to achieve it.
This course made me aware of the huge amount of recession grafting needed in our patient population that we were not treating! I have the skills now to treat tons of recession sites and increase our productivity! Julio Rodriguez, DDS Dr. Wallace is a skilled clinician and presents innovative techniques throughout this terrific course! The course syllabus is the best I have ever seen and gives clear directions for new surgical results. This course is a winner! Scott Skinner, DDS Prosthodontist Dr. Wallace is an excellent clinician and teaching pro. He provides color syllabus, videos of surgery cases, multiple case demonstrations in lecture and a handson workshop. Could not be more thorough! Zahir Khokhar, DDS MHS Periodontist/Prosthodontist
TREATING PERI-IMPLANTITIS THINKING OUTSIDE IMPLANT REPLACEMENT COURSE OBJECTIVES Recognize the prevalence of peri-mucositis and peri-implantitis infections. Observe the histology of gingival tissue reactions to contaminated titanium particles. Review the mechanism of attachment of soft tissue and bone to implant surfaces. Understand the evidence-based literature showing why peri-implantitis is a non-linear infection phenomenon resulting in an exponentially rapid bone destruction. Develop the ability to diagnose early the symptoms of peri-implantitis infection. Understand the characteristics that barrier membranes must exhibit to achieve guided bone regeneration around implants. Gain skills to enable you to anticipate and prevent complications of peri-implantitis. Learn the surgical instruments, sutures, techniques and principles for successful flap design, membrane selection, bone graft preparation and stabilization of healing sites. Flap Techniques/Surface Treatment/Attachment Regeneration Rationale is given for the correct choice of particulate allograft bone to enhance neogenesis with vertical gain of new supporting bone adjacent to implants. You will learn effective flap design for passive soft tissue coverage of treated sites. This technique is shown to be critical to surgical site coverage. Optimal barrier membrane choice takes into consideration handling characteristics, material composition, barrier thickness and resorption rate. Application of Biologic Modifiers Blood Derived: newest alpha-prf (platelet-rich fibrin) Recombinant Proteins: rhbmp-2 Porcine Derived: Enamel Matrix Derivative Biologic modifiers target new bone regeneration around implants and promote development of thick keratinized gingival tissue. This is the key to preventing peri-implantitis infection. Prevent and Treat Healing Complications: Observe the effectiveness of a specifically compounded oral formulation of 1% metronidazole antibiotic gel in preventing and treating healing complications.
VERTICAL BONE FILL 8 MM VERTICAL GAIN This course is pure cutting-edge skills and evidence-based. It shows you exactly what to do to prevent loss of infected implants. Dr. Ernie Ward, GP Dr. Wallace is an excellent clinician and terrific presenter showing his original evidence-based clinical results. His ability to clearly pass on the knowledge base he has is a rare talent! Dr. Joe Nemeth, periodontist
