Periodontal Mucogingival Surgery – Diagnostics and Root Coverage
Course Objectives:
- Learning about periodontal plastic surgery, focusing on surgical interventions aimed at correcting or eliminating developmental or traumatic anatomical deformities of the gingiva or alveolar mucosa.
- Discussion on the diagnostic processes for identifying mucogingival issues, with emphasis on strategies for root coverage.
- Learning surgical techniques for managing mild to extensive, simple, or multiple mucogingival lesions around teeth and implants.
- Hands-on training training, where participants practice selected periodontal plastic surgery techniques under expert guidance
- Presentation and analysis of a clinical case study involving mucogingival surgery.
