Dr Robert Oretti - Hard & Soft Tissue Grafting 2-Day Masterclass.

Course Overview:

This fully immersive hands on workshop will discuss the critical factors and the step-by-step surgical protocols associated with developing an adequate transmucosal tunnel around dental implants for optimal volume and attachment.

Additionally, when the volume of soft tissue is inadequate, or there is no keratinized tissue remaining, this workshop will show procedures to correct these deficiencies with soft tissue manoeuvres and connective tissue grafts for enhanced outcomes on a predictable basis.

This year will also include the opportunity to discuss specific case studies.

Educational Aims & Objectives:

• Become familiar with the anatomical landmarks and compartments such as the mucogingival junction and attached and non-attached gingivae.

• Appreciate the rationale of biological width and the formation of a transmucosal tunnel around dental implants and the strategies required to enhance the soft tissue tunnel.

• Understand how to harvest soft tissue grafts and their application to improve the formation of keratinized and attached soft tissue.
