Basic information about the course

Having adequate volume of bone and soft tissues around the implant is key for the long-term success of the implant treatment. Securing this volume begins with choosing the correct way to augment the alveolus at the time of extraction of the natural tooth.

Depending on the clinical situation, an immediate or delayed implantation may be applied, with the condition of the alveolar walls being of essential importance. Contemporary bone substitute materials in combination with the growth factors contained in PRF enable effective restoration of different types of bone defects and stimulate the natural regenerative potential of the body.

Preservation of the buccal bone plate or its restoration in case of resorption is particularly important. This is a decisive factor for achieving stable and predictable results, especially when implanting in the esthetic zone of the dentition.

During the training, the basic principles of planning implant treatment in cases with bone defects will be reviewed, as well as contemporary approaches for augmentation and management of peri-implant tissues.


Benefits for participants

After completing the course, participants will be able to:

  • Assess the bone defect after extraction.
  • Preserve the alveolar socket with intact walls or with involvement of the buccal wall.
  • Evaluate when a clinical case is suitable for immediate implant placement and when a delayed approach is more appropriate.
  • Apply contemporary techniques for augmentation of peri-implant tissues.
  • Work with bone substitute materials and PRF to support regeneration.
  • Plan treatment with the aim of achieving more predictable and long-term stable results.

The course provides practical guidance and clinical confidence that can be applied directly in everyday implantology practice.


Who the course is suitable for

This course is intended for:

  • Dental practitioners placing implants who want to improve the predictability of results in cases with bone defects.
  • Practicing clinicians who wish to refine their skills in preserving the volume of the alveolar ridge after extraction.
  • Specialists and young dentists who want to build a solid foundation in contemporary implantology protocols.

Basic information

The modular program in oral surgery is a structured training aimed at building a solid theoretical and practical foundation in oral surgery, with a clear focus on clinical applicability. The course is conceived as an introduction and sequential refinement of key surgical skills that are fundamental not only for surgical interventions but also for everyday dental practice.

The training follows a logical, progressive path — from the anatomical and physiological prerequisites of pain and its effective control, through basic surgical maneuvers and tissue handling, to tooth and root extractions, also considered from a contemporary implantology perspective. Each module combines an in-depth theoretical part with practical training, including exercises, work with instruments, models and observation of clinical demonstrations.

The program is aimed at dental practitioners who wish to build confidence, predictability and a systematic approach in oral surgical procedures, laying the foundations for future advancement and ongoing professional development


Benefits for participants

  • Building solid and applicable knowledge in oral surgery that serves as a foundation for safe and predictable clinical practice.
  • Mastering the principles of pain-free dental treatment through the correct selection of local anesthetics and effective injection techniques.
  • Ability to manage clinically difficult-to-anesthetize cases and patients with comorbidities.
  • Increasing confidence in performing tooth extractions, including in complicated and high-risk clinical situations.
  • Acquiring the correct approach to selecting and using surgical instruments.
  • Gaining knowledge and practical skills for working with soft tissues – incisions, tissue approximation, choice of suture materials and suturing techniques.
  • Ensuring a more predictable and controlled healing process following surgical interventions.
  • Development of better ergonomics and a systematic clinical approach in oral surgical procedures.
  • Improved clinical judgment for extractions, also considered from the viewpoint of contemporary implantology.
  • Creating confidence to advance knowledge and skills into more complex surgical and implantological treatments.
