Vertical Bone Augmentation

Thursday, 24th October – from 9.00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (lunch at 1 p.m.)

• Principle of vertical bone augmentation.
• Step-by-step explanation on how to achieve the desired vertical height. Advanced technique for flap management.
• Not resorbable membranes Vs customized titanium grid.
• Vertical augmentation with resorbable material.
• Computer Guided Bone Regeneration and vertical bone augmentation. Vertical augmentation on posterior mandible.

Live Surgery

• During the live surgery session, participants will have the opportunity to observe surgical treatments being performed on patients in real-time.
• Each step of the procedure will be thoroughly explained and commented on, allowing participants to see how theoretical knowledge and scientific principles are practically applied in a clinical setting.
• This experience is designed to enhance understanding by directly correlating learned concepts with actual surgical practices.

Hands-on

• During the hands on ession, participants will have the opportunity to performe every single surgical step on pig jaws
