8AM ~ 5PM...FRIDAY, November 20, 2009 8 CE CREDIT HOURS ADA/CERP Atraumatic Extraction & Minimally Invasive Implant Site Development Lecture & Hands-on Workshop  Implant site preservation and development is the concept of maintaining the volume and architecture of both the soft and hard tissues. It is critical to minimize tissue loss during extraction to conserve the natural tissue architecture for future implant placement. Tissues should be preserved and maintained in their original forms as much as possible from the time of tooth extraction to the placement of restoration. This concept is crucial to ensure tissue healing, patient comfort, esthetics and functionality of the final implant restoration. This course highlights several techniques that facilitate a more esthetic, functional and predictable result in implant dentistry, starting with extraction. Discussion will focus on some of the most commonly asked questions in implant dentistry, such as... Should grafting be performed after tooth extraction? and decisions regarding immediate implant placement versus delayed implant placement. Which is the best graft material to use? What type of interim provisional restorations to use in order to minimize tissue loss? This course is designed for both novice and advanced clinicians. The hands-on portion will focus on minimally invasive extraction and grafting techniques and participants will practice on pig jaws. Course Objectives
