Congress and workshop given in dutch.

Hilde De Vree will, based on her long-term clinical experience, discuss predictable treatment strategies in muco-gingival challenging situations around natural teeth and implants on Friday 6th of October.

An advanced hands-on workshop on Saturday 7th of October will give you the possibility to explore important incision and suturing techniques to stabilize graft and coronally advanced flap which is of utmost importance for the success of the treatment. Free gingival grafts and coronally advanced flap in combination with connective tissue grafts and the removal of labial soft tissue to achieve verticalization will be practiced on pig jaws. Clinical training will be given to two groups of 20 people (one group in the morning and the other one in the afternoon). It is important to bring magnifying loups.
