This small group comprehensive 2-Day program focuses on the merits of embracing Immediacy as a patient centered implant prosthodontic treatment solution. Through a series of live and previously recorded surgeries, formal presentations, group discussions and hands-on training, dental teams will become familiar with the merits of Immediacy Protocols for both the single tooth and full arch solutions. Particular emphasis will be placed on how best to have the entire team embrace and advocate for Immediacy Protocols to be adopted in dental practices.

Implant Retained Overdentures for the GP: The removeable, implant prosthodontic standard of care for over 20 years

The 2002 McGill consensus statement, recommending mandibular two-implant overdentures as the first-choice standard of care for edentulous patients, ushered in a new era of care for patients who had struggled for many years with conventional prostheses. For the first time in its history, the world of removable prosthodontics gained a significant body of clinical outcome data to support recommending this treatment modality. This one-day program will provide general dentists with a profound understanding of what it means to be completely edentulous as well as how patients with a terminal dentition can benefit from the transition to an implant retained overdenture. A series of case histories will highlight the diagnostic criteria, treatment planning sequence of care and the associated maintenance involved in providing this treatment modality. A hands-on training exercise will help familiarize general dentists with the implant prosthodontic components involved.

Learning Objectives

• Understand the reality of the Completely Edentulous Predicament
• Work through the steps involved in Overdenture Treatment Planning
• Gain a better understanding of the required implant overdenture maintenance as well as the management of common complications
• Become familiar with the implant prosthodontic components required for the prescription of implant retained overdentures

Advanced Soft Tissue Management around Teeth and Implants.

This course is designed for general practitioners and interested clinicians to provide them with the essential knowledge and hands-on experience needed to improve patient outcomes in soft tissue management around teeth and implants.

Learning objectives:

• Accurately diagnose mucogingival defects, understand their etiologies, and explore the science behind soft tissue management.
• Development of a decision-making framework for soft tissue management around teeth and implants.
• Learning flap design and management of recipient sites for single or multiple tooth recessions.
• Learning harvesting  techniques of donor sites including free gingival grafts and various techniques for connective tissue grafts.
• Compare autogenous tissues with biomaterials used as alternatives in soft tissue management.
• Refine advanced suturing techniques to improve clinical outcomes in soft tissue surgeries.
• Understand strategies for preventing and managing complications following soft tissue procedures.
• Hands-On Training: A two-day hands-on workshop utilizing pig jaws to practice:
  • Free gingival graft and connective tissue graft techniques
  • Advanced suturing techniques

This 2 day didactic and hands-on program is for the GP who wants to improve their fundamental surgical skill set. Participants will be able to experience a wide variety of
surgical procedures typically seen in a GP office, but the emphasis will be on developing effective clinical skills in flaps, suturing and extractions.

This course is limited attendance with a low instructor to student ratio and will take place in our simulation lab where you will learn on phantom heads, special dental models, and pig mandibles.

Learning Objectives

• Effectively assess patient and procedural risks
• Develop proficiency in the selection and use of surgical instruments
• Learn and apply surgical approaches to minimize tissue traumaManage
• Recognize and manage complications

Simulation lab experience will include:

• Flap design
• Suturing (interrupted, continuous locking, figure of 8)
• Biopsy techniques
• Simple extractions (forceps and elevators)
•  Surgical extractions (bone and soft tissue sparing)
• Impactions (lower mesio-angular and horizontal)
• Root removal
• Incision and Drainage (drain placement)
• Oral-antral penetration repair (sliding flaps)
• Tongue and lip tie revision
• Socket preservation and basic GB
• Sinus bump (Summers procedure)
• Connective tissue grafting
• Introduction to implant placement (guided and freehand)
