Workshop: The art & science of the vestibular socket therapy | Liptingen | 19-20 aprilie 2024

"Terapia vestibulară a alveolei este un protocol clinic nou pentru tratarea unui număr variat de situri post-extracționale noi (subțiri sau cu un deficit al crestei alveolare, sever compromise sau cu o infecție activă) cu plasarea imediată a unui implant. Protocolul este creat pentru reabilitarea mediului osos alveolar și pentru plasarea imediată a unui implant în același sit chirurgical, oferind astfel un rezultat imediat și predictibil.

Protocolul VST (Vestibular Socket Therapy) scurtează timpul necesar pentru tratament, reduce numărul intervențiilor necesare la una singură, prezervă topografia orificiului original alveolar pe întreaga durată a tratamentului până la finalul acestuia și permite reabilitarea completă a alveolelor activ infectate cu plasarea imediată a unui implant și regenerarea osoasă."

This course will highlight the extensively published studies using the VST protocol with a special emphasis on the long term (three years) follow up data. The VST protocol offers shortened treatment time, reduces the number of surgical interventions to only one, preserve the original socket orifice topography with minimal or no mid facial post restorative recession, and allows the total socket rehabilitation.

The vestibular socket therapy allows the placement of immediate implants in sockets presented with active infective signs, by using the VST 6 days protocol. The presentation will also highlight the vestibular root removal protocol that allows the removal of subgingivally located roots without any risk of any soft tissue laceration nor socket osseous housing expansion, and the vestibular socket preservation technique that presents a new vision of socket preservation that eliminated the previous known pitfalls of the conventional method.
In this unique course you will get the opportunity to try specially fabricated training VST models, newly designed VST instruments Kit. You learn how to place immediate implants via CAD/CAM on the training model and watch the unique VST animations that facilitate the complete understanding of the concept.

Workshop practice:

• use the VST approach to treat defective labial plate of bone
• 3-dimensional placement of immediate implant in the esthetic zone
  
• experience using the dual guide to perform vestibular root removal technique
  
• stabilize the bone shield to regenerate the lost labial plate of bone
  
• chair-side fabrication of customized healing during the VST surgery
  
• repair palatal bone socket defect by using the palatal access incision and bone shield placement
  
• fabricate immediate provisional restoration immediately in non-functional immediate loading cases
  
• apply the 6 days protocol to treat infected sockets immediately
  
• use alloderm or novomatrix to treat thin-walled socket soft tissues
• treat healed defects of alveolar bone ridge with VTT (Vestibular Tunnelling Therapy) with palatal access shield stabilization
