The Socket Shield Technique can be performed in a single surgical session, reducing invasiveness and morbidity, improving long-term stability and patient comfort, and achieving excellent soft tissue results that are comparable to or even superior to those obtained with delayed implant placement.
Dr. Markus Hürzeler, inventor of the technique, will guide you through the evolution of the surgical protocol, highlighting the improvements and innovations introduced over the last 15 years. Through several clinical cases, he answers frequently asked questions and offers practical solutions applicable to daily practice.
By joining this course, you will gain an in-depth understanding of the biological basis of the Socket Shield Technique, its new classifications, the different phases of treatment, and its application in various clinical scenarios.
Join the course and discover all the secrets of the Socket Shield Technique to meet the expectations of even your most demanding patients.
