SCHEDULE OF EVENTS (The Institute reserves the right to amend the schedule.)

PARTICIPANT LEVELS

• Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced
• Surgeon Operators can expect to dissect and place at least 4-8 corps remote anchorage, all-on-4 implants during the laboratory workshop.  Explore pterygoid, zygomatic, trans-sinus, trans-nasal implants and other techniques.
• Observers may watch and learn the dissection learning and refreshing pertinent orofacial anatomy for dental implant placement.

ENABLING LEARNING OBJECTIVES Cadaver Lab: Advanced Corps Anchorage Level II:

• Anatomical Familiarity and Landmark Identification:
• Identify and describe critical anatomical landmarks relevant to dental implant placement and remote anchorage, including maxillary and mandibular bone structures, sinuses, and key nerves.
• Mastery of Surgical Techniques for Remote Anchorage:
• Demonstrate proficiency in surgical techniques specific to remote anchorage systems, including the selection and placement of zygomatic or pterygoid implants for full arch restoration.
• Integration of Full Arch Prosthetic Planning:
• Apply principles of prosthetic-driven planning to the surgical placement of implants, ensuring optimal positioning and angulation for full arch restorations to achieve esthetic and functional outcomes.
• Advanced Skills in Managing Complex Cases:
• Develop the ability to assess and manage complex clinical cases that require remote anchorage solutions, including cases with severe atrophy or bone deficiencies.
• Post-Operative Care and Complication Management:
• Learn to implement effective post-operative care protocols and identify and manage potential complications, such as infection, implant mobility, and issues related to remote anchorage sites.
• These objectives aim to provide comprehensive training that covers the anatomical, surgical, and prosthetic aspects of dental implantology with a focus on remote anchorage for full arch restorations.
