Over 80 dental schools and surgery programs in the USA and abroad currently use Dr. Tanaka’s fresh cadaver anatomy and “Implant Surgery” teaching videos as part of their core educational and post-graduate programs. The 28th Annual Fresh Cadaver Course- Advances in Implant Surgery will address recent advances in implant surgery and imaging and the changing approaches to site selection, advanced surgical techniques, and implant selection. Among these advances, course topics include: new procedures for more predictable tooth removal and implant placement, bone grafting, sinus membrane elevation and the careful execution of flap design.

Course Objectives:

• Learn to read and compare cone beam C.T. images with clinical intra-oral findings and analyze their accuracy
• Learn critical anatomical landmarks, vessels, and precautions to avoid post-surgical bleeding and airway obstruction
• Learn the importance of the “careful removal of teeth” and protecting the labial/buccal plate of bone (PiezoSurgery)
• Practice placing numerous implants and learn when bone grafting may or may not be indicated and why
• Learn the latest techniques for sinus membrane elevation and how to manage the sinus membrane during grafting procedures
• Learn the results of recent studies by the faculty that will elevate your understanding of current implant practices

These topics and more will be presented by a faculty of eight experienced and published clinicians and educators and will be held at the UCSD School of Medicine, Department of Anatomy.

• The faculty to participant ratio allows this course to be presented as a Beginning and Advanced course with extensive personal supervision and interaction with the experienced team of instructors
• All instruments and equipment will be provided, but bring your magnifying loupes & cameras.
• Cone beam CT images and study casts of each specimen will be provided to evaluate the buccal-lingual dimensions of the edentulous site, the lingual inclination of the alveolar ridge, the buccal-lingual thickness of the anterior mandibular ridge, the opposing occlusion, and the degree of tooth wear in order to design “a restoratively driven surgical approach”.

Bring your families, July is the best month of the year in San Diego!
