Hands-On Workshop: Periosteal Flaps to Enhance Coverage of the Bone Graft and Thickness of Soft Tissue

Workshop Description

In this course we will review the 4 of the most common surgical protocols using bone graft cements. Attendees will receive practical knowledge on how to perform socket grafting with flap reflection, socket grafting without flap reflection, lateral ridge augmentation and augmentation in the aesthetic zone. 

The course will include a variety of resources, such as animated videos, recorded live surgery demonstrations, clinical videos and hands-on experience. Evidence based data histology shows how following the surgical protocols leads to clinical success and complete bone regeneration for the patient. 

Learning Objectives

In this part of Periosteal flap management, we will learn all different applications of periosteal membrane:

• Palatal periosteal flap to increase coverage of the graft.
• Palatal periosteal flap to increase thickness of the gingiva.
• Mandibular double flap (periosteal and mucosal) to cover the bone graft.
• Mandibular periosteal flap to increase keratinized gingiva around implants
