Basic of Implant Surgery; Planning, Suturing, Incisions and Implant Application

The aim of this course is to increase the surgical knowledge of people who have not applied dental implants before or who have little experience to apply dental implant safely. First, we will briefly talk about the change process that dental implantology has undergone in its history. Recent literature information about implant design, implant surface and implant materials will be shared. The bone and soft tissue anatomy of the upper and lower jaws with and without teeth will be examined. Radiographic, clinical planning and evaluation will be made and planning will be discussed over the cases. On the first day of the course, incision techniques and suture applications on the sheep's leg (cannon) will be practiced by all trainees. On the 2nd day of the course, the physiodispenser device, which is the most important tool in implant application, will be introduced practically. In terms of systemic diseases, the conditions that should be considered in implant application will be discussed. Detailed information will be given about the preparation and postoperative information before implant surgery and what needs to be considered. In the afternoon of the 2nd day of the course, all participants will make an incision on the model that looks like the real tissue, opening the implant socket in the jaw model and placing the 3 implants in practice. After the question and answer session, the course will be completed with a certificate ceremony.
