Alpha Omega

Lecture and hands-on course: The Contemporary Management of Ridge Defects, October 12th 2023


Led by Dr Rodrigo Neiva DDS, MS


Alpha Omega had the pleasure of visiting the Dentsply Sirona Headquarters last month to hear from the world-renowned Professor of Periodontics at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr Rodrigo Neiva.




The day started with a presentation on the fundamental principles of guided bone regeneration, commencing with the important science behind the procedure and the evolution of different graft /membrane materials and properties.





There was a practical focus throughout with Professor Neiva demonstrating modern techniques and flap designs.



In the afternoon we were able to translate this into a practical exercise on pig jaws.



This was a fantastic, enjoyable day, with a great lecturer, and great facilities and organisation. Looking forward to the next!
