Contemporary Advances in Implantology: New Materials and Updated Protocols - Dentistry eBooks

Course Overview

Featuring lecturers from Spain and Italy — including Simone Marconcini, Daniel Robles Cantero, Adriano Piattelli, Luca Comuzzi, and Natalia Di Pietro — this course is positioned as an up-to-the-minute look at new materials and protocols in implantology rather than a foundational course. It opens with tissue level implants for aesthetic tissue rehabilitation, contrasting them with bone level implants and covering hybrid implant options and their biological rationale, particularly in the aesthetic zone.

The curriculum then moves into horizontal bone grafting, including newer approaches designed to avoid common complications, and the split crest technique as an alternative augmentation strategy. A significant portion of the course focuses on porcine-derived biomaterials — their osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties, their role in sinus augmentation and guided bone regeneration, and how implant stability quotient and insertion torque relate to these techniques. The biconometric prosthetic concept and navigated implantology are also addressed as more advanced, modern approaches to case planning.

Across 6 videos and roughly 5.5 hours, the course is designed to bring implantologists up to date on genuinely current materials and techniques rather than revisiting established fundamentals.
