• Alveolar ridge preservation with autogenous and xenogeneic bone
• Bone shell technique with autogenous bone, xenogeneic bone and synthetic bone
• Connective tissue graft and free gingival graft

Bone augmentation with a bone block and guided bone regeneration are the most documented techniques to augment the deficient ridge in the horizontal and vertical dimension. In this 2-day masterclass bone augmentation is discussed from A to Z focusing on biological principles of wound healing, anatomical considerations, intra-oral bone harvesting procedures and the use of biomaterials. Since bone augmentation requires extensive flap advancement, lack of keratinized tissue and/or soft tissue convexity are common findings. Therefore, soft tissue augmentation techniques are usually required. Finally, relevant medication is discussed to prepare and support the patient prior to and after surgery.  

The following surgical procedures are theoretically discussed on the first day and fully practiced on the second day:

• Intra-oral bone harvesting of bone particles and a bone block
• Alveolar ridge preservation as an alternative to bone augmentation
• Implant placement and simultaneous Guided Bone Regeneration
• Bone augmentation with the bone shell technique
• Sinus lift with or without simultaneous implant placement
• Connective tissue graft
• Free gingival graft
