Course Overview
Part 2: Advanced Planning and Surgical Techniques
Day One: Advanced Planning & Surgical Techniques – Morning Session
- Discussion on problems with guided surgery that delegates have encountered since Part 1
- Discuss why sometimes guided surgery “lies to you”
- Solutions for these problems
- Discussion and demonstration of our daily protocols for guided surgery, from the first phone call to the patient attending for surgery

Day Two: Advanced Planning & Surgical Techniques – Morning Session
- Advanced Guided Implant Surgery. How we use guided surgery for almost all cases in our practice to increase predictability and drive efficiencies
How to use guided surgery to streamline the following…
- See a case designed using an alternative planning software
- Thinking outside the box
- Mixing and matching Implant hardware/ guided surgery equipment from different manufactures
- Immediate implants
- Immediate implants with immediate provisionalisation
- Guided Bone Regeneration
- Sinus surgery (internal and external)
Advanced Planning & Surgical Techniques – Afternoon Session
- Live Surgery Videos
- Case presentations, including 4K videos of live surgeries
- Analysis and discussion of guided implant surgeries
- Q&A
Hands-on Workshop: Advanced Guided Implant Surgery Skills
- Utilising the guide you designed and printed in the previous workshop exercise, we will place up to 4 guided surgery dummy implants
- We will also show you how we utilise guided surgery to facilitate the simple construction of a provisional crown, bridge, and custom healing abutment
