Socket Shield Technique – ADA CERP
Dr. Markus Hürzeler welcome you to this comprehensive training experience on theĀ biological rationale and surgical protocol of the Socket Shield TechniqueĀ ā the one-surgery approach that allows for immediate implant placement in the frontal esthetic area.
Achievable in one surgical session, the Socket Shield Technique ensuresĀ less invasivenessĀ andĀ morbidity,Ā improved long-term stability,Ā enhanced patient comfort, andĀ excellent soft tissue outcomesĀ that are comparable to ā if not better than ā those obtained with delayed implant placement.
Dr. Markus Hürzeler, the inventor of the Socket Shield technique, will guide you through the evolution of the surgical protocol, highlighting the refinements and innovations introduced over the past 15 years. Through several clinical cases, Dr. Hürzeler also replies to some of the most frequently asked questions concerning the technique, providing practical and applicable answers for your daily practice.
By joining this course, you will gain a deeper understanding of theĀ biological rationaleĀ behind the Socket Shield Technique, the new classifications, the differentĀ stages of the treatment, and itsĀ practical application in different clinical scenarios.
Join Dr. Markus Hürzeler to uncover all the secrets of the Socket Shield Technique and meet the needs and expectations of even your most demanding patients!
The course includes:
- 5 video lessons with lots of clinical clips
- 1 final Socket Shield surgery
- The analysis of different clinical scenarios
Topics covered in the course:
- Socket Shield Technique: evolution, indications, and advantages
- The biological rationale and surgical protocol
- A new classification system and case selection strategy
- Immediate implant placement in post-extraction sockets
- Anchoring methods for shield stabilization
