Lessons 114 lessons
Participants will receive a comprehensive and up-to-date training on the latest developments in the surgical management of simple and complex cases with standard and replicable protocols.
The module includes 5 theoretical video lectures featuring the presentation of various clinical cases, followed by 2 final ReLIVE Surgeries that are shown and discussed step by step to put the previously presented theoretical concepts into practice.
Specific attention is paid to periodontal anatomy and diagnosis, palatal connective graft harvesting and placement techniques, and the management of coronal displaced flaps.
