Course Summary
Patients with untreated gingival recessions have a tendency to increase in the existing recession or development of a new recession. Gingival recessions result in unaesthetic appearance, hypersensitivity and increased risk of root caries. In the first half of this lecture, we will go through various surgical techniques that address gingival recession, soft tissue handling and connective tissue harvesting, suture techniques and healing management.
Schropp et al., 2003 reported that 50% of the ridge width is lost during the first 3 months after tooth extraction. In the second half of the lecture, we will touch on how to maintain a good soft tissue profile with socket preservation procedures that maintain both hard and soft tissue volume. Participants will learn how to prepare surgical sites for easy implant placements.
