Predictable Bone Grafting for Future Implant Placement
Predictable Bone Grafting for Future Implant Placement
One of the main criteria for having successful surgical results in implant dentistry is to have adequate bone. When inadequate bone quantity and quality is present certain forms of bone augmentation are required in order to facilitate future implant placement. This seminar will discuss predictable bone grafting techniques for different situations and areas of the maxilla and mandible. Clinical situations and cases will be shown to demonstrate these grafting techniques.
