Dental CE Course: Easy and Predictable Ridge Augmentation using Ultrasonic Piezoelectric Bone Surgery

Saturday, June 4, 2011, 8:00 am - 5:00 pm (Lecture & Hands-on) Sunday, June 5, 2011, 8:00 am - 5:00 pm (Lecture & Hands-on) Please click for detail. http://www.youngsdental.com/seminarschedules.aspxCourse Outline This two-day hands-on course includes lecture, various videos demonstration on piezoelectric bone surgery associated with dental implant and oral and maxillofacial surgery, followed by hands-on training with freshly frozen rabbit and pig skull. This lecture provides an overview of piezoelectric bone surgery and advanced surgical techniques using piezoelectric device. These procedures are taught with unique and clinician proven step-by-step teaching procedural surgical guides with piezoelectric bone surgery. Course Objectives 1. Understand basic principles and variable applications of piezoelectric bone surgery 2. Understand the advantages of piezoelectric sinus bone graft compared to conventional sinus bone graft 3. Understand the procedures of piezoelectric internal sinus elevation (PISE) technique and hydrodynamic PISE with minimal invasiveness and no use of mallet and no risk of postoperative positional vertigo 4. Understand surgical procedures of piezoelectric harvesting of block bone and autogenous bone chip 5. Understand piezoelectric ridge splitting and its efficacy 6. Understand piezoelectric sandwich bone augmentation with interpositional bone graft. 7. Understand variable hard tissue management and oral pathosis using piezoelectric device such as cyst removal, apicoectomy, removal of impacted tooth, alveoloplasty, distraction osteogenesis, etc. 8. Understand the utilization of fibrin rich complications with concentrated growth factors for ridge augmentation for sinus bong graft. 9. Understand the utilization of piezoelectric surgery during implant placement 10. Understanding when to use piezoelectric surgery and when to use allografts.

Testimonials “Dr. Sohn does a great job of simplifying bone grafting and sinus augmentation procedures. You’ll leave the course with the confidence to tackle more difficult cases. I’d highly recommend this course to anyone who currently places, or plans to place implants.” Dr. Jeremy Moore, Baton Rouge, PA “Dr. Sohn, I attended your piezoelectric bone surgery seminar in Los Angeles last week and enjoyed it very much. Thank you again for the outstanding lecture/training course. It was very informative, educational and practical. I learned a lot.” Dr. Andrew Satlin, Lakewood, CA “Hi DS, Thank you for coming to LA! The course was great. My brother, future associate and I really enjoyed it. You teach less invasive techniques that have the same or better results as conventional techniques. I highly recommend this course! “ Dr. Paul Maupin, Roswell, NM
