The aim of the Curriculum is to provide knowledge on the appropriate surgical management of oral soft tissues. The trainees gain a solid foundation of knowledge on the biology of healing and receive comprehensive training in the basic surgical principles and surgical techniques, along with the required equipment and materials used.
The seminars aim to render the application of surgical techniques in everyday dentistry more user-friendly and help dentists achieve more predictable and effective results. Soft tissue surgery is presented in two 2-day modules and two 3-day modules. Each seminar includes lectures, video presentations, hands-on demonstration on the jaw bone of a pig and attendance of live surgery sessions.
