Mastering Peri-Implantitis Treatment
Advanced Surgical and Non-Surgical Strategies
Master state-of-the-art protocols to prevent periimplantitis, maintain implant health, and regenerate lost tissue using evidence based implant maintenance and treatment techniques from a world-renowned expert in the field of peri-implantitis.
Course Overview
Peri-implantitis has rapidly emerged as one of the most significant challenges facing modern implant dentistry, affecting an increasing number of patients and jeopardizing long-term implant success.
If not diagnosed and treated early, periimplantitis can result in progressive bone loss, soft tissue compromise, and ultimately, implant failure.
In response to this growing clinical need, this comprehensive masterclass offers a state-of-the-art exploration of both surgical and non-surgical management approaches, grounded in the latest scientific evidence and clinical best practices.
Participants in this masterclass will delve into a rigorous, hands-on curriculum designed to equip clinicians with the confidence and clinical acumen needed to diagnose, treat, and prevent peri-implant disease at the highest standard of care.
Key Topics Include:
- Evidence-Based Protocols: Learn the latest guidelines for diagnosing and treating peri-implant diseases.
- Hands-On Experience: Engage in practical sessions focusing on implant surface decontamination, regenerative techniques, and soft tissue management.
- Risk Assessment: Understand patient-specific factors and implant characteristics that contribute to periimplantitis. Learn more about the hype around titanium particles and how to manage them.
- Maintenance Strategies: Develop effective maintenance plans to ensure long-term implant success without damaging the implant surface
By the end of the course, attendees will possess a complete, actionable framework for managing peri-implant diseases—from early intervention to advanced regenerative solutions. Participants will leave with the skills to improve patient outcomes, protect the long-term viability of implant treatments, and confidently navigate complex peri-implantitis cases with surgical precision and scientific rigor.
This program is led by Dr. Georgios Kotsakis, a globally recognized clinician-scientist renowned for his groundbreaking research in peri-implant diseases, implant surface science, and biomaterials. A Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology and an active surgical implantologist, Dr. Kotsakis serves as a faculty member at the University of Washington School of Dentistry and is one of the most published researchers worldwide on peri-implantitis and implant complications. His translational research is shaping how clinicians around the world understand and manage implant-related infections, making him uniquely qualified to teach this important topic.
Join Dr. Kotsakis and learn from one of the world’s leading voices in peri-implant disease research and clinical management. Elevate your ability to diagnose, treat, and prevent peri-implantitis—and safeguard your patients’ smiles for a lifetime.
