Conference summary
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication”
The objective of this theoretical-practical course is to introduce the concept of bone cement (Biphasic Calcium Sulfate), the reasons behind its surgical protocols, its properties and the new surgical possibilities that we face in its use. The differences between the use of bone cement and the traditional grafting methods challenge existing paradigms in the field of guided bone regeneration (GBR). Now, we can use minimally invasive protocols without using membranes, without manipulation or distortion of soft tissues, as tension-free flaps are no longer mandatory. Bone Graft cement allows us to face with confidence and simplicity almost all cases of bone augmentation, from the simplest to the most complicated, providing us with protocols that ensure simplicity, safety and predictability of results.
This course will focus on specific procedures and protocols for the use of bone cement in different types of bone augmentation surgery. The participant will learn to manipulate the surgical flap in order to keep the surgery minimally invasive and to be able to close flaps while maintaining tension (unlike the traditional GBR techniques). You will also learn to work without having to use membranes, without having to completely close the flap, and to understand and avoid the muscular relationship with the movement of the flap. Participants will learn to be able to predict the final outcome of the surgery, while avoiding the most conventional post-surgical complications.
Learning objectives:
• How to manipulate the flap as little as possible, improving the final results;
• How to eliminate the muscular influence on the stability of the flap;
• Applications, techniques and protocols of bone cement;
• Suturing and flap closure techniques using bone cement;
• How to predict the best final results during surgery.
