In recent years, the increased demand for aesthetics in procedures related to implant dentistry has created the need for developing techniques that will facilitate optimal aesthetics together with proper function of the implant borne reconstructions.
A number of surgical procedures involving different bone grafting procedures with or without the combined use of GBR have been evaluated in the literature. Socket sea lis one of the techniques presented in the literature with satisfactory healing outcomes for both the patient and the practitioner. During this workshop, the healing outcome following different clinical ridge/socket preservation protocolls and their impact in relation to implant dentistry will be critically evaluated and discussed. Special focus will be placed on the use and clinical/surgical handling of ucograft for this type of procedures.
Given the hands on nature of the course there will be a maximum of 30 places. So early booking of places is vital. The course fee will be only £199 if booked before December 31st 2012. After that the full fee will be £249.

As we have held implant seminars for the last 20 years, we have received a lot of feedback from many people. They request easy and simple drills, fixtures that can demonstrate superior initial stability at any location and time regardless of the form and volume of the remaining bone, osseointergration achieved while gingival level maintained, and no loosening of abutment connections, already MegaGen implant has strived to realize these ideas from long time ago and now through anyridge implant system we come to meet the 'implant of the future' that we have dreamed about. The implant has all the advantages of the current implant design, can achieve long term stability by maintain bone, eliminate in principle the screw loosening of the single implant crown which is gradually increasing in prosthetics, and at the same time maximized the comport. In the presentation, we will share with you 'the ideas' which were the basis of AnyRidge implant system, 'the dream implant', and discuss the possibility and effectiveness of AnyRidge implant system which is the first outcome of the macroscopic design.
This is a complimentary lecture. To book, please contact Megagen Office Manager Rhoda Weir on Tel: 01442 840326 or by e-mail rhoda.weir@megagen.co.uk.
