Dr. Svoboda will show how to approach the “alveolar ridge with moderate deficiency in width” and place an immediate implant with a high degree of certainty. He has been developing his technique for bone manipulation over the past 20 years. His bone spreading technique utilizing handpiece driven screws is both practical for the patient and efficient for the dentist.
Dr. Svoboda believes that the bone spreading graft is primary and should be considered before any other technique. In cases where bone spreading may be insufficient, it can be used to make the alternative graft easier and it can be used to rescue the failing graft. What a great service for patients and dentists alike!
Dr Svoboda will also speak about how he modifies bone quality. This makes bone manipulation possible under a greater number of conditions. Understanding this concept will likely make all your grafts more successful.
