Peri-Implantitis Masterclass: Diagnosis and Treatment Modalities

22.06.2022

This Peri-implantitis Masterclass will be divided in two parts:

Part 1: During the first (didactic) part, the participants will become exposed through lectures and case based discussions to the classification of peri-implant diseases and the related risk factors. Furthermore, through presentation of clinical cases and appraisal of the literature, the different non-surgical and surgical treatment alternatives will be evaluated and critically appraised for their efficacy. This will include the use of regenerative techniques such as GBR in combination with different types of bone grafts or resective surgical techniques. The first part will be completed by discussing a risk assessment tool for the appropriate maintenance/recall programme of patients receiving dental implants.

Part 2: The second (skills) part of the Masterclass will be a hands-on workshop on pigs jaws where the course participants will be able to practice the following:

            Non-surgical treatment of peri-implantitis using both EMS and Acteon debridement solutions

            Surgical techniques:

  1. Resective flap
  2. GBR with the use of a bone graft and a collagen barrier

            Explantation techniques:

  1. Reverse torque technique (demonstration)
  2. Explantation with the use of piezosurgery

Talks

Aims

To improve the knowledge and understanding of Peri-Implant Diseases to include epidemiological risk factors, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic management and long-term maintenance.  

Objectives

  • To understand the prevalence, aetiology, pathogenesis, risk factors and clinical presentation of Peri-Implant Diseases

  • To appreciate the rationale for non-surgical and surgical management of Peri-Implantitis

  • To understand the relative roles of specialised instruments/equipment, surgical techniques, and biomaterials in the non-surgical and surgical management of Peri-Implantitis

  • To become more proficient in surgical procedures and other treatment modalities in the management of the failing implant

  • To appreciate the critical role of supportive care/maintenance of dental implants

Biography

Professor Nikos Donos

Professor Nikos Donos is the Chair of Periodontology & Implant Dentistry, the Head of the Center for Oral Clinical Research (COCR) and the Lead for the Center of Oral Immunobiology & Regenerative Medicine (COIRM) at the Institute of Dentistry, Barts & The London School of Medicine and Dentistry, Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). COCR specializes in the provision of randomized controlled clinical trials and experimental medicine studies in oral/dental health. 

In 2009, Professor Donos was awarded the title of Honorary Professor at the Faculty of Dentistry in Hong Kong and in 2012 he was awarded the title of Adjunct Professor at the Dental School, Griffith University, Australia. In 2015, Professor Donos was awarded the title of Honorary Professor at UCL-Eastman Dental Institute.

In 2011, Professor Donos was awarded the prestigious IADR-Periodontology Group Award in Periodontal Regenerative Medicine during the annual International Association of Dental Research (IADR) meeting in San Diego, California. Furthermore, in June 2011, Professor Donos together with his research team, received a commendation certificate during the prestigious Medical Futures event for their (UCLB) patented technology which is based on their research work on synthetic peptide drugs for bone, blood vessels and nerve regeneration. 

Professor Donos is the President elect for 2020 at the British Society of Periodontology (BSP), a board member at the Osteology Foundation and the Academic Representative at the Committee for Association of Dental Implantology (ADI).

Professor Donos is involved as editorial board member in a number of international and national peer-reviewed journals in the field of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry especially in relation to regenerative procedures/implant surgery and has published extensively in both fields. Professor Donos has published more than 200 scientific publications in the field of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry which is a testament to his professional and scientific commitment in the relevant fields.

The clinical expertise of Professor Donos is in the field of Periodontics and Implant Dentistry and his clinical research focus is in the area of wound healing following treatment of periodontal disease/peri-implantitis and in the field of bone and soft tissue regeneration, topics that he regularly lectures on an international level.
