Focus on Bone Substitutes
A Full Day Symposium
28th April 2008
The Weston Building, Manchester Conference Centre
One of the key factors contributing to the long term functional and
aesthetic success of dental implants is the quality and quantity of
supporting bone. In practice clinicians often need to select appropriate
bone augmentation materials to help with the reconstruction of bone defects
in association with implant placement. This choice needs to be made on the
basis of clinical evidence. Therefore, this one-day meeting 'Focus on Bone
Substitutes' is of particular relevance, examining both the biological basis
as well as the evidence supporting the clinical use of some of the currently
available bone augmentation materials.
During the day, seven renowned experts will present the evidence for both
xenografts and synthetic materials. Specifically, the performance of these
materials in both alveolar ridge reconstruction and sinus augmentation will
be highlighted.
 On behalf of the Association of Dental Implantology (UK) it is my great
pleasure to invite you to attend this forthcoming scientific meeting.
