Evolution of techniques and technologies in oral surgery

 In the last 30 years, surgical disciplines have continuously evolved in the search for minimally invasive or, with a very popular concept, the "Minimal Access Surgery" (MAS). 

This trend has also affected oral surgery, it being understood that Mininvasiveness does not mean completely replacing traditional procedures, but rather addressing them with the criterion of the least possible invasiveness.

 This new approach translates, thanks to the reduced surgical trauma, into a lower inflammatory response of the reparative process which in turn reduces the nociceptive stimuli, the possibility of infectious complications and induces a simpler, faster and, why not predictable, healing. 

All this involved the development and use of dedicated biomedical instruments and devices, which ideally should integrate traditional procedures on the one hand in the various surgical times and on the other hand set new techniques that make the most of their potential.

 Think of the growing role of the operating microscope, piezoelectric devices, magneto-dynamic strikers or more simply the instruments for microsurgery. 

The aim of the specialization course, organized in collaboration between Unicamillus and the Istituto Stomatologico Toscano, is to illustrate all these techniques and technologies, in the various fields of use, from a theoretical point of view, including also a careful assessment of the relationship between costs and benefits as well as to become familiar with both the techniques and the tools during the practical exercises. 


Director: Prof. Ugo Covani

 Course hours: Morning 9.00-13.00 Afternoon 14.00-18.00 

The Saint Camillus International University of Health and Medical Sciences (UniCamillus) - University exclusively dedicated to Medical and Health Sciences - has obtained the approval of the Regulations University and didactic regulations on June 20, 2017 by CUN (National University Council) and accreditation by ANVUR (National Agency for the Evaluation of the University and Research System) on September 5, 2017. On November 28, 2017 the Minister of Education, University and Research signed the Ministerial Decree 927 which establishes the University, registered by the Court of Auditors with n. 2353 of 18/12/2017 and published in the Official Gazette no. 3 of 4 January 2018. 

The academic qualifications issued are identical to those of other Italian state universities and, therefore, also valid throughout the European Union pursuant to Directive 2005/36 / EC and Directive 2013/55 / EU . 


The University has already been included in the World Directory of Medical Schools, a joint venture between the World Federation for Medical Education (WFME) and the Foundation for Advancement of International Medical Education and Research (FAIMER). 

The first academic year started in November 2018.
