Registration for Perio Master Clinic 2020 opens on August 12

Clinicians wishing to participate in the main EFP event of next year – Perio Master Clinic 2020 in Dublin ­­­– will be able to book their places from next Monday, August 12.

Focused on current and future challenges of hard- and soft-tissue aesthetic reconstructions around teeth and dental implants, Perio Master Clinic 2020 will bring together many of the world’s leading clinicians who will explain the latest clinical techniques in one of the most challenging areas of periodontal practice.

Taking place on March 6 and 7 at the Royal Dublin Society, the event involves nine sessions over two days covering all the important aspects of reconstruction around teeth and implants.

“Perio Master Clinic 2020 provides a unique opportunity over two days to witness the best speakers on regeneration in periodontics – all experts in their own field,” said congress chair Declan Corcoran. “Over two days. delegates can expect to get a complete overview of the field of regeneration and uniquely witness high-quality videos that will highlight the practicalities of the procedures.”

The programme, co-ordinated by scientific chair Anton Sculean (EFP president, 2018-19), features:

• Reconstructive concepts in intrabony defects (Filippo Graziani, Leonardo Trombelli, Giulio Rasperini);
• Reconstructive concepts in furcation defects (Søren Jepsen, Pierpaolo Cortellini, Paul Rosen);
• Soft-tissue defects around natural teeth (Moshe Goldstein, Giovanni Zucchelli, Anton Sculean, Karen Jepsen):
• Novel concepts: outlook for the future (Alpdoğan Kantarci, Darko Božić, Peter Windisch, Lior Shapira):
• Interactive case presentation – reconstructive surgery versus extraction and implant placement (Giovanni Salvi, David Nisand, Tali Chackartchi, Andreas Stavropoulos, Phoebus Madianos);
• Socket grafting (Peter Harrison, Nikolaos Mardas, Ronald Jung);
• Ridge augmentation (Nikos Donos, Ronan Allen, Markus Schlee, Istvan Urban);
• Soft-tissue grafting to maintain peri-implant health (Mariano Sanz, Mario Roccuzzo, Sofia Aroca, Georgios Romanos);
• Complication management after reconstructive surgery at natural teeth and dental implants (Tiernan O’Brien, Ioannis Polyzois, Kevin Murphy, France Lambert, Daniel Buser, Markus Hürzeler).

The two-day event is preceded by a day of hands-on workshops in which participants will receive expert instruction on case selection, instrumentation, flap design, autogenous grafting techniques, the use of biomaterials, the use of barrier membranes, and suturing techniques.
