Seminar Topic: Surgical Skills: Setting Yourself Up For Clinical Success
Course Description:
Ridge preservation after a tooth extraction will preserve bone structure and will set you up for success by setting the stage/foundation for future restorative work. The procedure involves filling the socket left by the extracted tooth with a bone graft material to encourage bone growth.
Beginning with a short lecture, participants will learn the rationale behind ridge preservation, and will see the results through case presentations. Following this, participants will have a chance to apply their knowledge and skills on pig jaws, using current materials and techniques.
Course Learning Objectives:
- Explain what happens to the alveolar ridge following dental extractions
- Recognize the common materials and techniques used to preserve the alveolar ridge
- Formulate an idea of what results to expect from the procedure, as well as see how these results influence the subsequent implant placement
- Apply their theoretical knowledge of ridge preservation to actual clinical situations commonly encountered in practice
Course Description:
The process of suturing can mean the difference between a short and relatively painless healing period and failure of the procedure. Starting with a brief lecture, participants will learn the rationale for suturing, and will explore the do’s and don’ts of the technique. Following this, participants will have a chance to apply their knowledge and skills on pig jaws, using a variety of different suture materials and techniques to cover a multitude of clinical situations.
Course Learning Objectives:
- Explain the physiology behind how suturing positively influences post-operative healing
- Recognize the different suture materials and techniques
- Apply their theoretical knowledge of suturing to actual clinical situations commonly encountered in practice
