What it covers

In this first video lecture, Dr. Filippo Fontana provides an in-depth discussion on how to regenerate bone using resorbable membranes.

The lesson, presented in a full “how to do it" mode, focuses on managing minor defects with a high occurrence rate in the daily practice of every professional.

Participants will learn how, contrary to traditional belief, resorbable membranes, when accompanied by fixation systems, can also be used to manage poorly supportive defects, as they are less prone to complications compared to non-resorbable membranes.

The lesson ends with a step-by-step discussion of two clinical cases, one in the mandible and one in the maxilla, with the aim of showing participants the correct surgical protocols and the ease with which optimal outcomes were achieved using resorbable membranes.

In particular, this lecture covers the following topics:

  • What is the scope of use for resorbable membranes?
  • Types of defects: supportive, non-supportive, and poorly supportive
  • Proper fixation systems for resorbable membranes
  • Managing the resorbable membrane: cutting, modifying, shaping, fixation, and suture protocols
  • How to stabilize the membrane to unlock great regenerative potential
  • Suture techniques: internal horizontal mattress and single suture lines
  • 6-month follow-up after surgery
