This interactive course is intended for periodontists and general dentists with surgical experience who wish to learn more about esthetic periodontal plastic surgery procedures for treatment of soft tissue defects at teeth and implant sites. You will learn microsurgical instrumentation and the latest minimally invasive surgical and suturing techniques developed by Dr. Allen using allografts and xenografts. The treatment concepts presented are based on current clinical and biologic research. All aspects of treatment planning and step-by-step surgical procedures will be presented and discussed. Case presentations, practical hands-on exercises and live surgical demonstrations provide in-depth knowledge about the use of soft tissue grafting techniques to achieve predictable coverage of single and multiple recessions, increase in tissue thickness, and extension of the vestibule. Other significant outcome parameters including gain of keratinized tissue will be presented and discussed.
