Contour Augmentation for Staged and Immediate Implants

Webinar Description

Dimensional changes occur as response to implant placement in fresh extraction sockets and in healed ridges. To minimize biologic and esthetic complications, a two layer graft combined with Ossix Plus is encouraged. It is fundamental that the clinicians understand that implant position cannot be compromised by the availability of pristine bone, but rather simultaneous interventions aiming at enhancing the alveolar bone dimensions house routinely be carried out to maximize stability.

Learning Objectives

To understand the physiological events occurring after implant placement

To understand the dimensional changes after immediate implant placement in the fresh extraction sockets

To highlight the role of OSSIX® Plus to foresee predictable outcomes in regenerative therapies.
