Join us for an exceptional two-day masterclass led by international guest convenor Dr. Giorgio Tabanella of Italy, a globally respected periodontist and expert in advanced implant dentistry. Dr Tabanella will explore the latest breakthroughs in tissue regeneration and modern surgical techniques, with a focus on biologically driven and minimally invasive approaches.
This masterclass focuses on biologically guided techniques for soft and hard tissue reconstruction, highlighting the use of magnesium-based resorbable materials (Novamag®) that offer strength and stability without the drawbacks of traditional grafting or non-resorbable meshes.
Through a mix of lectures and hands-on workshops, attendees will learn to apply these materials across procedures, integrate digital surgical planning, prevent tissue collapse, and manage complications to achieve consistently strong aesthetic and functional outcomes.
The overall aim is to enhance clinicians’ understanding of the biologic rationale behind successful implant therapy, particularly the importance of proper hard and soft tissue management for long-term outcomes.
Product segments: Biomaterials
By the completion of this program, participants will be able to:
- Explain the Biologic Rationale for Success: Understand why long-term success in implant therapy depends on proper hard and soft tissue management. You will be able to articulate the principles of bone biology and soft tissue healing that underlie regenerative techniques and use this knowledge to plan treatments that promote stability and health of peri-implant tissues.
-Utilise Next-Generation Biomaterials: Recognise the characteristics and clinical advantages of next-generation resorbable biomaterials such as Novamag®. Participants will learn how and when to use magnesium-based membranes and fixation screws as biocompatible alternatives to traditional collagen membranes and metal pins, thus improving patient outcomes by avoiding additional surgeries for device removal.
-Implement Digital & Immediate Approaches: Integrate digital surgical planning and immediate placement protocols into your practice. You will gain proficiency in using digital tools to guide implant positioning and regenerative procedures and understand how immediate implant placement and flapless techniques can preserve the patient’s natural tissue architecture and reduce surgical trauma.
-Perform Advanced Regenerative Techniques: Perform both hard tissue and soft tissue regenerative techniques, including Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) and soft tissue augmentation (e.g., pedicle flaps, use of soft tissue substitutes). Through hands-on experience, you will have refined your surgical skills in graft handling, membrane fixation (with Novamag®), and advanced flap design for optimal aesthetic outcomes.
- Follow Standardised Protocols for Predictable Results: Adopt standardised step-by-step protocols in regenerative procedures to ensure reproducibility. You will be equipped with clear guidelines and checklists for each stage of treatment from planning to execution to aftercare, which will help minimise the risk of complications and improve consistency across cases.
-Prevent and Manage Complications: Identify potential complications in bone and soft tissue regeneration and describe strategies to prevent them. Should complications or failures occur, you will know evidence-based approaches to manage issues such as graft exposure, infection, or insufficient tissue outcomes. Ultimately, you will be prepared to troubleshoot challenges and ensure the long-term stability of your result
Each learning outcome is designed to empower you with both the knowledge and the practical skills to drive the future of tissue repair in your own practice, combining innovation with proven biological principles for the benefit of your patients.

Description
Day 1 delivers a comprehensive lecture-based exploration of biologically driven, minimally invasive approaches to tissue regeneration in implant dentistry. Dr. Giorgio Tabanella will walk participants through the foundational principles of hard and soft tissue healing, the biologic rationale behind implant success, and the latest innovations in resorbable biomaterials, including the Novamag® magnesium system. Topics include immediate implant placement and loading to preserve natural tissue architecture, socket preservation strategies, and digitally guided workflows that enhance surgical precision. Clinical case reviews will highlight the integration of biomaterials, digital planning, and protocol standardisation for predictable regenerative outcomes.

Description
Day 2 combines advanced lectures with immersive hands-on training focused on the application of regenerative techniques covered on Day 1. The morning sessions include in-depth demonstrations of the Novamag® system, soft tissue augmentation strategies, and protocol-driven GBR techniques. In the afternoon, participants will perform guided surgical exercises using simulation models, practicing bone grafting, membrane fixation, and soft tissue management. With expert coaching from Dr. Tabanella, attendees will gain practical experience and confidence in implementing immediate placement, socket shield protocols, and resorbable biomaterial handling to enhance their clinical practice.
