Complications in implant dentistry are inevitable - being prepared is what defines clinical success.
This intensive 2-day course with Prof. Puria Parvini provides a comprehensive, case-based approach to understanding, preventing, and managing complications in implant dentistry. Through real clinical scenarios, you will develop structured decision-making skills and learn practical protocols that can be immediately applied in daily practice.
From surgical challenges such as nerve injuries, incorrect implant positioning, bleeding, and graft instability, to restorative and postoperative complications, this course equips you with the knowledge and confidence to manage both routine and complex cases effectively.
