Pikos Symposium 2022 – Dr. Matthew Fien
Site-specific Solutions for Predictable Hard and Soft Tissue Augmentation
Advancements in hard and soft tissue augmentation techniques will be presented to highlight the use of bio-absorbable membranes, various stabilization techniques, and the use of biologics to enhance the handling of our regenerative materials and improve surgical outcomes.
A special focus on defect morphology and anatomic limitations that must be considered will also be discussed in detail.
Learning Objectives:
• To understand how to successfully satisfy the requirements for predictable hard and soft tissue augmentation
• To learn multiple techniques to stabilize the graft membrane complex dependent on the anatomy and morphology of the defect being treated
• To learn to apply site-specific soft tissue augmentation techniques to achieve normal anatomic contours and a functionally stable treatment outcome
Dr. Fien is also presenting an optional hands-on workshop on Wednesday, October 5, 2022
