The aim of this course is to provide graduates legitimately practicing dentistry and oral surgery with a training course based on the best scientific evidence offered by the literature on the theme of prevention and therapy of maxillary bone atrophies. Particular importance will be given to the most up-to-date knowledge on the biology of bone tissue and its specific healing mechanisms,
and knowledge of all bone reconstruction biomaterials.
Alongside biological knowledge, the participant will explore all the most common surgical bone reconstruction techniques, with particular attention to the indications, contraindications and the prevention and treatment of complications of the various procedures. The program will not only concern bone reconstruction for implant purposes, but also that of the periodontal, both superficial and deep, compromised by periodontal disease.
The course will look at the treatment of patients at risk, the use of 3D images in the planning of the bone reconstruction, the biological implications of prosthetic loading times, and the maintenance over time of this particular type of patient.
The course will be supported by video documentation, "Live Surgery" interventions and exercises on natural and artificial simulators with the use of instruments more innovative (ultrasonic devices, Magnetic Mallett, etc.).
Those who obtain the master's degree will be able to enrich their private professional practice, contributing to the improvement of the theoretical and practical knowledge of biomaterials, tissue engineering products as well as related surgical techniques.
