Full immersion into reconstructive and plastic surgery of soft tissues around teeth and implants awaits you in a practical course with the legendary Giovanni Zucchelli!

Theoretical sessions, hands-on practice, live surgeries, and video demonstrations — all of this will be included in the course.

During the two intensive days of theoretical sessions, you will learn:

– Treatment protocols of single and multiple recessions in the upper and lower jaw

– The author's techniques of mucogingival surgery

– Treatment of recession around implants

– Soft tissue augmentation prior to implant placement.

The third day will be entirely devoted to performing live surgeries and practicing hands-on exercises (on a pig jaw) under the guidance of Giovanni Zucchelli.

Doctor Zucchelli and the OHI-S team are waiting for you!

If you use dental surgical loupes, please bring it with you to the practical course.
