CROWN LENGTHENING - AESTHETICS, FUNCTION AND SURGERY (3.5H CPD) (SYDNEY & BRISBANE)

from A$154.00

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:

FROM THE PROSTHODONTIC PERSPECTIVE:

How do we assess if crown lengthening is a suitable treatment option

How do we assess the case difficulty

How do we work up a case for crown lengthening? What are the necessary steps?

How do we then decide on an appropriate final restoration/prosthodontic treatment option after crown lengthening – are there any critical points we need to be aware of in terms of preparation design or the general workflow?

FROM A PERIODONTAL PERSPECTIVE:

Discussing a case of a gummy smile: When is gingivectomy a suitable treatment option? How do we plan for gingivectomy? What are the clinical steps involved in gingivectomy?

How do we assess if gingivectomy is suitable or crown lengthening is required

Discussing a simple case of functional crown lengthening for a patient with heavily restored dentition; what are the clinical steps i volved? Are there any flap designs and suturing techniques we can learn about?

If the case is then too difficult for a general dentist, how do we manage the case together with a specialist - what do we include in the referral? How do we manage the patient before and after the procedure?
