S-12 Soft Tissue Management

5 (1 vote)

CE Hours: 1.5

Description: Soft tissue management is of paramount importance for a successful Endodontic Microsurgical procedure. Raising a flap is first step to gaining access to the apical area. The flap design determines the quality of the access to the surgical site and also influences the healing of the soft tissues. Many criteria should be considered when choosing a type of incision: position of the tooth to be treated, extent of the lesion, evaluation of the quality of the existing fixed prostheses, and status and health of the periodontium in the area of the surgery.  A good knowledge of the anatomy of the soft tissues is also essential for choosing the right type of incision. This presentation will address all the theoretical and clinical aspects of proper soft tissue management in Endodontic Microsurgery.

Learning Objectives:  

  • Describe the anatomy of soft tissue encountered during Endodontic Microsurgery
  • Choose the proper flap design for a successful Endodontic Microsurgery
  • Choose the most suitable suturing technique for Endodontic Microsurgery
