Description
Course Objectives:
• Learn a technique for regenerating cementum, bone and fibroblast mediated soft tissue during periodontal surgery
• Learn a technique for regenerating bone and fibroblast mediated soft tissue when treating peri-implantitis
• Discuss all of the peer-reviewed literature that validates both of these techniques.
Soft and hard tissue regeneration has always been an ideal, yet elusive goal when treating periodontal and peri-implant disease. This course will provide the attendee with a 12 step program to achieve laser-assisted periodontal tissue regeneration. This technique is also applicable to peri-implantitis treatment. Though lasers have been used in dentistry for over 30 years, and many laser companies have made many claims about regeneration of tissue, these techniques will be proven to work via case reviews and supported by a critical review of the peer-reviewed literature.
