This Advanced Training Workshop will face the most challenging clinical problem in dentistry: the treatment of molars with furcation involvement. The “furcation dilemma” is still an open question with some clear answers and many dark sides. The aim of this 4-day full immersion workshop is to discuss the non-surgical and surgical approaches to give clinicians predictable solutions for the treatment of teeth with furcation involvement. The course will be empowered with ample discussion on the anatomic and diagnostic parameters to set a treatment plan. The “core” of the workshop will focus on detailed description of surgical concepts, surgical techniques, clinical tips, complications and failures. Lectures, 2D and 3D video demonstrations, hands-on training, practical exercises on simulators, and case discussion, will allow clinicians to upgrade their skills in the treatment of teeth with furcation involvement.

The world most renown Master on Periodontal Regeneration , Dr. Cortellini, and his Team propose this interactive course, powered by 2D and 3D video demonstrations, hands-on training, practical exercises on simulators, and case discussions, aiming at clinicians wishing to upgrade their skills in the application of Periodontal Therapy to teeth with furcation involvement. This unique, highly personalized course consists of an integrated approach designed to build and extend the competence of the practicing periodontist in managing the most challenging of the periodontal lesions through advanced concepts of treatment planning on an individual level. The clinical decision of saving or replacing teeth with furcation involvement will be debated and supported by scientific evidence and clinical experience.
