Join us for “Zygoma: From fundamental concepts to practical application,” a comprehensive course led by Dr. Ruben Davo and Dr. Alexandra Marques. This three-day event covers everything from the history and anatomical considerations of zygomatic implants to advanced techniques and practical applications. You’ll explore various implant approaches, including intrasinus, sinus slot, and extrasinus techniques, as well as alternative graftless methods like transnasal and pterigopalatine implants. The course includes hands-on sessions with 3D models and cadavers, live surgery observations, and digital workflow integration. You’ll also learn about prosthesis design, facial aesthetics, and navigation technology for precision placement, with a focus on avoiding complications. This course ensures you gain the skills and knowledge to effectively apply zygomatic implant techniques in your practice.

Learning outcomes

• Understand the history and development of zygomatic  implants.
• Gain detailed knowledge of facial anatomy relevant to  zygomatic implants.
• Learn anatomically guided placement techniques, including  intrasinus, sinus slot, and extrasinus methods.
• Explore alternative graftless approaches like transnasal  and pterigopalatine implants.
• Compare and understand different zygomatic implant  approaches, including Quad, Hybrid, and Unilateral.
• Practice zygomatic implant techniques using 3D models and  cadavers.
• Observe live zygomatic implant surgery and understand  digital workflow integration.
• Learn effective surgical planning methods for zygomatic  implants.
• Design, fabricate, and fit prostheses for zygomatic  implants.
• Enhance facial aesthetics using fillers in conjunction with  zygomatic implants.
• Integrate navigational technology for precision in implant  placement.
• Identify and prevent complications in  zygomatic implant surgery.

The objective of this 3 days course, is to provide the attendees with a deep theoretical knowledge but more important with a deep hands-on experience on the management of implants in the esthetic zone in order to achieve the best esthetic results.

In this course one live surgery will be performed by Dr. Gamborena placing an implant in the esthetic zone either immediate or staged. 4 Attendees will learn to harvest tissue for connective tissue grafts as well as different suturing techniques. A prosthetic and a surgical hands-on workshop will be performed by the attendees in order to have a global experience in this type of high advance implant esthetic courses.

The Advanced Implantology Hands-On Course with Cadavers is designed for dental professionals seeking to enhance their skills in implantology through practical, hands-on experience.

• Develop skills in soft tissue management, including grafting and tension-free wound closure
• Immediate implant protocols
• Full arch treatment concepts

Comprehensive Understanding of Sinus Lift Procedures:

• Learn both lateral and crestal approaches to sinus lifts
• Understand how to manage complications associated with sinus lift procedures

Improved Case Planning and Execution:

• Enhance ability to select and plan cases for advanced implantology
• Utilize digital workflows and software for precise implant placement

Increased Confidence and Competence:

• Build confidence in performing complex implantology procedures through hands-on practice on cadavers
• Develop the ability to handle complications and unexpected situations during surgery

Post-Course Application:

• Apply new techniques and skills in daily practice with increased safety and predictability
• Access post-course support and resources to continue improving skills and knowledge

Learning outcomes

• Crucial steps that will lead to a predictable treatment outcome
• Digital planning and prosthetic workflow
• How to achieve primary stability needed for immediate loading
• Step-by-step procedure by means of literature, cases and live surgery
• Get familiar with the surgical protocol for NobelActive, a reliable implant solution for high initial stability and soft and hard tissue preservation

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.

Session 1: Sassuolo, Italy | July 1-4, 2026

Session 2: Santos, Brazil | November 23-27, 2026
 

Flapless immediate implant placement and provisionalization (FIIPP) is a modern treatment method characterized by fast time-to-teeth, less surgical interventions with equal or better prosthetic results and better patient acceptance.  

In this course, they will take you through each step of FIIPP, from diagnosis, treatment planning, and surgical and prosthetic protocols, demonstrating the methods that can optimize predictable, long-term success. Amongst the topics covered are the One abutment one time concept, the use of the N1 Base, and other Nobel Biocare products.

Learning outcomes:

• Understand the relevant diagnostic tools
• Select the optimal indication 
• Understand the application of the planning and surgical protocol 
• Identify the options for provisionalization
• Understand the do's and don'ts for the supra-structures
• Identify factors influencing long-term predictability and outcome

Learning outcomes

• Crucial steps that will lead to a predictable treatment outcome
• Digital planning and prosthetic workflow
• How to achieve primary stability needed for immediate loading
• Step-by-step procedure by means of literature, cases and live surgery
• Get familiar with the surgical protocol for NobelActive, a reliable implant solution for high initial stability and soft and hard tissue preservation
