Socket Grafting and PredictableRidge Preservation for Cosmeticand Implant DentistryA Hands-on WorkshopPresented by:Lewis C. CummingsAugust 10, 2012American Institute of Implant DentistryWashington, DC7 CE Credit Hours

Course DescriptionSuccessful oral rehabilitation often requires hard and soft tissue regenerationfor optimal functional and esthetic outcomes. As implant dentistry evolvesto become the standard of care, education on the maintenance of boneand soft tissue after tooth extraction is essential. Today’s clinicians areachieving predictable results by grafting extraction sockets for ridgepreservation, utilizing the latest membranes and bone scaffolds. Socketgrafting following tooth removal is proven to reduce bone loss, maintainridge proportion, enhance esthetic and post-operative outcomes, and satisfypatient expectations.Failing premolarsSockets debrided and grafted withbone particulate prior to placementof collagen membrane3 month re-entry showing adequatebone fillPost-implant placement radiographThis course will review practical application of extraction socket graftingand ridge preservation.
