Osseodensification Course
Osseodensification; Optimize and Simplify Your Dental Implant Practice
One-day hands-on course
Since the beginning of dental implant therapy, the technique used for the implant site preparation has been considered one of the most important factors affecting osseointegration. Therefore, instruments for implant site preparation capable of improving osseointegration are desirable. Osseodensification, an evidence-based approach to osteotomy preparation that enhances implant stability and bone density without compromising healing.
This whole-day training will minimize the learning curve and help understand the science behind osseodensification. Didactic scientific learning and hands-on practical training will present the biomechanical, histological healing timeline, and clinical data of Osseodensification. The osseous densification technique would increase primary stability, bone mineral density, and the percentage of bone at the implant surface compared with drilling technique. Osseous densification was shown to increase the insertion and removal torques of the implants compared to standard drilling and extraction drilling. It will discuss bone plasticity and its clinical effect and will also cover the clinical versatility of this novel technique including:
- Site optimization utilizing the Osseodensification.
- Sub Crestal Sinus Autografting Procedure.
- Lateral Ridge Expansion.
- Compaction Autografting technique.
- Immediate Implant Placement with Osseodensification
- Review Densification Guide for any implant system.
The program requires didactic scientific education and clinical cases review as well as additional hands-on simulation with:
- Actual bone specimen model
- Sinus Lift Protocol 2 simulation model
- Ridge Expansion simulation model
General Objectives:
- Review the scientific principal of Osseodensification
- Discuss the Biomechanical validation of Osseodensification.
- Learn and practice the Clinical Versatility of Osseodensification
- Explore different techniques of using osseodensification
- Risk assessment and avoiding complication.
- Develop the surgical skills required for placement of implants
