Advanced Full Arch and All on X Hydrophilic Implant Treatment
Implant dentistry is growing and with its growth, it is bringing about revolutionary changes to treatment plans and protocols. For what was once considered to be a far-fetched treatment option is now more common among the patients. The comprehensive course “All for one and one for all” is primarily designed for individuals who have adequate experience in Implantology. A fine background on Implantology is vital for this course, as the focus here is on minimizing the complications encountered during implant supported prosthetic treatment in completely edentulous patients. The All-on-4 and All-on- 6 concept advocates distal tilting of implants in edentulous arches, which enables placement of longer implants and improved support with short cantilever arm. Inter implant distance is improved thus promoting improved anchorage into the bone while providing immediate full arch rehabilitation with lesser number of implants. This course gives you an introduction to effective treatment alternatives that have been proved to have higher clinical success rate. This course bridges that gap between the surgical and prosthetic treatment procedures enabling a structured treatment plan which produces immediate aesthetic results thus increasing its popularity among patients. This course manifests the idea for a better, conservative, comprehensive and cost-effective treatment.

I 3 - Immediate Implantation – Immediate hard and soft tissue management – immediate loading in upper jaw in the aesthetic zone- current decision-making process
Advanced Immediate implantation and immediate loading in the aesthetic zone Systematic planning prepares you for a case requiring) an immediate implant with immediate loading. The main advantages of immediate implant placement are that they save time and there are fewer patient visits. During implant surgery, the dentist has to make a lot of decisions that are based on scientific knowledge and his own experience and personal skills. There are numerous indications for tooth replacement with an immediate implant when an adequate amount of bone and soft tissue are available to support it. Teeth need to be removed atraumatically to preserve the maximum amount of bone before immediate implant placement. Placement of immediate implants is a predictable procedure and attention to detail is essential to ensure success when placing these implants. There is the possibility to improve the Pink esthetic zone with immediate hard and soft tissue augmentation. The harvesting of CTG from the palate for soft tissue management can improve the result in the aesthetic zone. This lecture will include hints and tips on all aspects of immediate implantation, hard and soft tissue management with CTGs, which you can take back to your practice. Indications as well as the advantages and disadvantages of technique will be discussed.

Local, sustainable, organic, recyclable: intraoral donor sites
This lecture explores the diverse range of intraoral donor sites that can be used for autologous tissue harvesting beyond what is typically covered in dental school and training. By utilizing autologous tissue, we can avoid the risk of disease transmission and take advantage of its growth factors. However, the gold standard tissue is often overlooked due to concerns around donor site morbidity. Selecting donor sites that are adjacent to the recipient area is associated with minimal postoperative discomfort. Specifically, the focus is on the utilization of tuberosity bone, translocated ridge segments, and extracted or partially extracted teeth. Additionally, complications that may arise when biological principles are not followed will be reviewed. This lecture’s goal is to expand the knowledge of intraoral donor sites and provide practical guidance for their successful utilization in clinical practice.

Osteo-Immunology : A New Paradigm Shift in Implantology and Bone Grafting
Osteoimmunology is the modern science that shows the influence of immune system on bone metabolism but also on all tissue healing phenomena. Indeed, bone healing starts with an immune reaction: inflammation triggered by the release of inflammatory cytokines. These cytokines are responsible for angiogenesis, which activates the formation of bone callus. The behavior of bone cells is dependent on the functioning of the immune system. High level production of oxidants is named oxidative stress, will lead to a failure of the immune system with collateral effects such as infection, bone resorption or fibro-integration. This is the case, for example, in diabetics, smokers, patients allergic to penicillin or in chronic inflammatory diseases. A favorable bone metabolism will necessarily require a reduction of oxidative stress by means of various solutions such as adequate vitamin D supplementation, reduction of LDL cholesterol levels or other adequate immune stimulants. Antibiotic prophylaxis must also be revisited in order to use antibiotics with significant immune-stimulating properties. PRF has also an immune function : decreases the inflammatory level and increases the local anti- oxidants. This new science favored new clinical protocols : the open wound technique. With a powerful immune system there is no fear of infection, It will be easy to demonstrate that peri-implantitis is an immune disease that causes bone loss around the implant, triggered by oxidative bone stress.

Simplified lateral ridge augmentation by f.i.r.s.t. and one-time cortical lamina
The Fibrin Sealant (FS) is a drug of human origin used in general and specialist surgery for many decades. It is validated by over 6,000 papers in the literature. In oral surgery, FS stabilizes and maintains the natural clot for 10-14 days. It has adhesive, sealing and inductive action for hard and soft tissues. FS allows better management of particulated bone graft that, becoming plastic and adhesive, adapts perfectly to defects without shedding of granules. It also protects surgical wounds and stimulates faster soft tissue healing. The F.I.R.S.T., devised by Foti V. in 2016 and published in 2020, is a GBR technique that stands out for its simplicity, predictability and low morbidity. Based on the triad fibrin sealantcollagenated heterologous bone-heterologous cortical lamina, it allows the reconstruction of two/three walls post-extraction sockets using envelope flaps (Lamina Shield). In lateral GBR the F.I.R.S.T. allows to glue cortical laminae for heterologous bone particles containment without pins or screws. The result is a lamina/graft complex strongly adherent to the defects, without micromovements and empty spaces, that is one of most important prerequisites for the neo-angiogenesis and the new bone formation. Finally, the minimally invasive “One-Time Cortical Lamina” technique, published by Foti V. in 2021, where it is achieved a vestibular lateral ridge augmentation to simultaneous implants that does not require surgical re-entry for uncovering.

Decoding the aesthetic zone in implant therapy: When, what and how for optimum aesthetics
Once the decision is made to extract a tooth, clinicians have a decision to make; delayed management – i.e. extract and wait, a staged approach – i.e. graft and wait or immediate implant placement. Immediate implant placement combined with a later or an immediate soft tissue support? Also, the achievement of an aesthetic implant-supported restoration is a constant challenge to the restorative dentist. Due to the circular shape of the implant and its smaller diameter, when compared to the root of a natural tooth, a dilemma inevitably occurs of how to construct an artificial crown that will imitate the natural tooth crown form. The appearance of the surrounding soft tissue the is of major importance, and various techniques have been developed to guide its topography. This presentation will highlight parameters and key factors for the evidence-based decision making in order to choose the technique that facilitates a more aesthetic, functional and predictable result according to the patient expectations. Starting with diagnostic models through surgery with immediate provisional restoration therapy to the definitive restorations.

Hard and soft tissue management of atrophic ridges with the Computer Guided Bone Regeneration approach. Resorbable or not resorbable devices.
Today many approaches have been described for alveolar bone regeneration. In our opinion a case 3D analysis is mandatory as well as a prosthetic and aestetich implant installation. To obtain stable results during the follow-up, bone and soft tissue should be managed in accordance with a precise prosthetic plan. We will expose clinical and scientific evidences of the Computer Guided Bone Regeneration approach.
