Dental Implant Hands-On Mini Residency – Module Based Weekend Course – UCLA Trained Faculty – Live Surgeries – Evidence-Based Elite Level Training.

This immersive two-day course led by Dr. Boyse and Dr. Mehranfar, offers clinicians a comprehensive hands-on exploration of stackable guide protocols in full-arch implant rehabilitation.  Designed for teams looking to elevate their proficiency in digital and chairside workflows, the program focuses on the practical execution of fully guided surgeries using precision stackable guides.

Course Objectives:
• Learn how to perform venipuncture and basic anatomy
• Utilize blood to make fibrin clot and fibrin glue
• Learn how to make and handle AFG (autologous Fibrin Glue) “sticky bone” for various bone grafting situations
• Learn what CGF is and what it consists of
• How you can incorporate CGF into your practice
• Learn full spectrum of clinical applications of CGF/PRF including surgical flap closures, socket preservation, ridge augmentation, sinus lift, immediate and flapless implant placement

4 days theory, hands-on and live surgery

5 days planning and treatment on patients
 

Intense theoretical-practical course

This immersive course is designed to elevate your skills in implant surgery and prosthetic rehabilitation, taking you through a complete learning journey—from foundational anatomical principles to complex clinical applications. Whether you are an experienced clinician looking to refine your expertise or a practitioner eager to deepen your understanding of implantology, this course offers a unique blend of theory, hands-on practice, and clinical case management.

Starting with a thorough evaluation of anatomical bases, we will explore the indications for implant placement, focusing on the crown-down approach. This technique enables participants to identify the future free gingival margin and assess whether the site requires tissue regeneration or is in an optimal condition. We will then dive into prosthetic profile evaluation as a fundamental step in surgical planning, followed by an in-depth analysis of various implant site scenarios: immediate post-extraction implants, implants in healed tissues, and advanced soft and hard tissue management.

Key surgical techniques will be covered, including connective tissue graft, free gingival graft, horizontal and vertical bone augmentation, and soft tissue management. We will also explore the biological considerations of the implant-to-restoration interface, ensuring long-term success. Alongside these surgical principles, emphasis will be placed on the planning and design of prosthetic rehabilitation, balancing the critical biological factors with the aesthetic excellence required for every restoration.

During the second session of the course, participants will be tasked with applying the knowledge gained in the first phase. You will plan and execute clinical cases, starting from patient evaluation and surgical planning to the actual surgery, concluding with the delivery of provisional restorations where applicable. This real-world application solidifies the concepts learned and gives you the confidence to bring these advanced techniques into your practice.

Take home concepts:

• Comprehensive understanding of anatomical foundations and implant indications
• Mastery of the crown-down technique for optimal implant placement
• Proficiency in assessing prosthetic profiles for precise surgical planning
• Experience with immediate post-extraction implants and implants in healed sites
• Advanced techniques in soft tissue management, including free gingival grafts and connective tissue grafts
• Expertise in the evaluation and planning of bone regeneration treatments, both vertical and horizontal augmentations
• Insights into the biological principles of the implant-to-prosthetic interface
• Practical application of surgical planning, case management, and provisional restoration delivery
• The ability to confidently plan, execute, and manage complex implant and prosthetic cases from start to finish

This course will provide you with not only the theoretical knowledge but also the practical skills needed to elevate your practice and deliver exceptional patient outcomes.

Session 1: Sassuolo, Italy | June 25-28, 2025

Session 2: Santos, Brazil | November 24-28, 2025

Master the techniques of sinus lift surgery in just two days. This intensive hands-on course teaches you predictable, efficient approaches to lateral and crestal sinus augmentation. Gain confidence through practical training in membrane elevation, bone grafting, implant placement, and suturing – preparing you for real clinical application.

This comprehensive one-day hands-on workshop will provide an overview of the application of autologous concentrated growth factors (CGF) and platelet rich fibrin (PRF) within dentistry. In addition, we will be discussing bone grafting fundamentals, socket preservation, incision and flap designs, suturing techniques, and more along with many hands-on exercises.

Session three will be located in Mexico and will consist of two full days of live surgeries on patients that are unable to afford dental work. These patients consist of low income individuals and families that are trying to improve their quality of life. This is a phenomenal opportunity to improve your surgical implant skills on real live patients while simultaneously helping and serving those in need.
