Soft Tissue Augmentation in Implantology and Periodontology ENG

Every implant you place, and every recession you treat, ultimately survives or fails on the strength of the soft tissue surrounding it. Yet in most clinical training, soft tissue management is still treated as an afterthought — something to address only when a problem has already appeared. This course changes that. Soft Tissue Augmentation in Implantology and Periodontology is an evidence-based clinical course built for dentists, periodontists, and implantologists who want to move from reactive treatment to confident, predictable, guideline-driven decision-making. Grounded firmly in ITI Consensus reports, EAO guidelines, and EFP S3-level clinical recommendations, this course translates dense scientific literature into a structured framework you can apply the very next day in your own practice. Why This Course Matters You already know how to place an implant. You already know how to raise a flap. But do you know how to reliably predict which recession defects will achieve complete root coverage before you even pick up a scalpel? Do you know when to graft simultaneously with implant placement and when staging will give you a dramatically more predictable result? Do you know how to explain a phenotype-driven treatment plan to a patient in a way that builds trust rather than confusion? This course answers all of these questions — not with opinion, but with current consensus evidence. What You Will Learn Across a single, intensive session, you will build four core clinical capabilities: Diagnose — classify periodontal and peri-implant phenotype and mucogingival defects accurately, using fast chairside tools you can implement immediately. Plan — confidently match the correct graft material (autogenous or substitute) and surgical technique to each specific clinical indication, rather than defaulting to whatever approach you learned first.
