Prof. Giulio Rasperini welcomes you to this highly practical course during which he will extensively discuss the treatment of complex periodontal patients with an innovative technique, theorized by the lecturer himself, called Coronally Advanced Entire Papilla Preservation Technique (CA-EPPT) – a combination of Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) and Entire Papilla Preservation Technique (EPPT).
The specialist provides a detailed overview of the indications and clinical applications of CA-EPPT, a cutting-edge approach that allows for the coronal advancement of soft tissues, interproximal attachment and gingival margin in patients with missing papilla and loss of attachment. As a result, the CA-EPPT promotes gingival margin stability, interproximal clinical attachment level and pocket closure, preventing the risk of gingival recession.
You will understand the importance of regenerating interdental attachment to improve tooth prognosis, minimize the severity of peri-implant diseases, and ensure a satisfying esthetic outcome. You will also gain knowledge and practical skills to apply CA-EPPT immediately in your daily practice, also thanks to 3 ReLIVE Surgeries and several tips & tricks shared by Prof. Rasperini.
If you want to go beyond everyday periodontology and solve complex cases safely and confidently, this is the course for you!
The course includes:
1 theoretical video lesson
3 ReLIVE Surgeries with step-by-step commentary
Topics and techniques covered in this course:
Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF)
Entire Papilla Preservation Technique (EPPT)
The combined Coronally Advanced Entire Papilla Preservation Technique (CA-EPPT)
Evolution and clinical application of the CA-EPPT
Tunneling techniques
Diagnostic protocols and classifications
Suturing techniques
At the end of the course, you will be able to:
Promote gingival margin stability in the treatment of infrabony defects at sites with thin gingival phenotype;
Improve interproximal clinical attachment level and pocket closure, preventing gingival recession;
Manage the CA-EPP flap using a CTG to promote gingival margin stability;
Combine papilla preservation, connective tissue grafting and coronally advanced flaps;
Effectively repair challenging interproximal soft and hard tissue deficiencies;
Reduce the presence of black triangles and other esthetic problems.
