Inflammations in the dental practice, their special forms, differential diagnoses and complications are the topics of the third part of the lecture by Dr. Markus Tröltzsch. Almost daily, dentists are consulted by patients, who suffer from diffuse, not locatable pain and possibly a swelling in the jaw area or…

Whenever and wherever we expect periodontics to regenerate, we should know about the conditions which allow and promote periodontal regeneration. Prof. Dr. Ian Needleman, London/Great Britain, gives an introduction to all about periodontal regeneration.

Prof. Rainer Schmelzeisen, University of Freiburg, covers a bone defect in the anterior maxilla with an autologous bone block transplant, which is obtained from the patient’s mandible within the same session. Prof. Schmelzeisen first harvests an autologous bone block and additional bone material from the…

Professor Dr. Rainer Schmelzeisen, University of Freiburg, and his team conduct alveolar ridge splitting in an atrophic maxilla, both in the posterior and the anterior region. In the same session, implants are placed immediately within the split and expanded ridge. Before wound closure, the implants are…

Oral inflammations have a wide variety of forms and intensities; in worst case they can be life threatening. In the second part of his presentation about inflammations in dentistry, Dr. Markus Tröltzsch introduces diagnostics and treatment methods for the therapy of inflammations.

Prof. Hürzeler uncovers an implant in the aesthetic zone applying a special roll-flap procedure. A full thickness flap is elevated at the implant site, which is rolled in in order to thicken the buccal tissue.

In this operation an implant is placed in the region of the missing upper right molar. In order to obtain the bone thickness needed for the implant an orthograde sinus floor elevation is performed using the osteotome technique in connection with a bone substitute.

In the premolar region of the right maxilla, Dr. Marc Hinze, Gräfelfing/Germany, conducts bone augmentation and implant insertion in one session. Applying the GBR technique, two membranes - a bone-lamina membrane and an Evolution membrane (collagen membrane) - are placed to create and maintain space for bone…
