Improved Knowledge and Selection of Biomaterials to… (ACDE)

Achieve More Predictable Results after Periodontal Surgery

An ACDE Joint Provider Live Webinar Series …
Presented by …
DR. ZEESHAN SHEIKH …

There is a plethora of available natural and/or synthetic biomaterials which are available for periodontal and surgical therapy that makes the decision-making challenging with regards to what graft materials to use. This course/lecture, conducted by a clinical-scientist in the fields of periodontics and biomaterials will provide an evidence-based rationale and insight for the use    of bone graft materials and barrier membranes for various periodontal surgical techniques. The course will also focus on detail upon the science and different protocols for use of these biomaterials to achieve predictable clinical results.

At the conclusion of this course, you should be able to:
Formulate a better understanding of the science and materials choice for various surgical techniques. Based on the knowledge gained in this course, you should also be able to answer the following questions:

• Why is it important to obtain basic knowledge of the biomaterials we use?
• What is a common classification of bone graft materials and barrier membranes?
• What are the advantages and limitations of the biomaterials currently available?
• What are the principles and the critical factors for successful selection of biomaterials that can impact your clinical procedures favorably?
• What are the different types of bone graft materials? How do they compare?
• What are the different types of barrier membranes? How do they compare?
• What are the most recent developments and the future for novel biomaterial development and innovation?
