Soft Tissue Management around Dental Implants
Soft Tissue Management around Dental Implants
Welcome to Module 3 of our comprehensive training program on Soft Tissue Management. In this module, we shift our focus to the critical aspect of soft tissue management around dental implants. Led by our renowned faculty, you will explore advanced techniques for autogenous tissue harvesting, and for the augmentation of keratinized mucosa and soft tissue thickness, together with the management of implant esthetic complications, a recent specialized field addressing soft tissue deficiencies around dental implants. By mastering these techniques, you will be equipped to provide optimal care and esthetic outcomes for patients undergoing implant treatments.
