Soft Tissue Managment in Immediate Implantation: Protocols for Predictable and Complication-Free Results. Seminar + Demonstration Master Class by Ricardo Kern. "VIP" option

The Brazilian School of Aesthetic Periodontology and Implant Dentistry — the highest standards of science, aesthetics, and innovation in surgical dentistry in the very heart of Sofia.

Ricardo Kern’s seminar is an intensive program focused on the most in-demand techniques for soft tissue reconstruction in immediate implant placement and achieving an ideal balance in implant-supported prosthetic rehabilitation.

Key seminar topics include:

– The philosophy of pink and white aesthetic balance
– Surgical concepts, including flap design, tissue mobilization, graft selection (connective tissue grafts and substitutes), and strategies for vertical tissue gain
– Biologically driven approach to vertical soft tissue reconstruction in edentulous areas prior to implant placement
– Immediate implant placement in thin phenotypes and recession sites: when, where, and how?
– Prosthetically guided treatment planning, and indications for vertical soft tissue augmentation
– Prosthetic management of Full-Arch FP1 cases.

Join this course and master a systematic approach that integrates surgical dentistry, biology, and prosthodontics into a predictable framework for managing “pink” and “white” aesthetics, achieving stable, long-term outcomes without complications.

IMPORTANT: the "Seminar. Standard", "Seminar. Comfort" and "Practical Course" participation options are also available for purchase.

Program

Theory

The Perfect Harmony of Soft Tissue

– The philosophy of pink and white aesthetic balance
– Concepts for digital planning and surgical aesthetic rehabilitation
– Effective team communication tools: from surgery to the laboratory.

From Biology to Prosthetic Management in Immediate Implant Therapy

– Factors that affect the stability of tissues around implants. What may influence bone loss and the development of peri-implantitis around implants
– Provisional design for immediate temporization in immediate implant cases and grafted sites.

– Decision-making process:

- Implant placement depth
- Abutment design
- Emergence profile anatomy
- How to develop vertical and horizontal BonePeak in proximal immediate implant sites.

Connective Tissue Grafts for Immediate Implants

– Immediate implant placement in thin phenotypes and recession sites: when, where, and how?
– Prosthetic Management of Full-Arch FP1 Cases
– Gingival Impression Index and Gingival Conditioning Cast
– The tools needed to shape the gingival contour and emergence profile from the provisional stage to the final impression.

Development of Edentulous Sites

– Biologically driven approach to vertical soft tissue reconstruction in edentulous areas prior to implant placement
– The critical role of peri-implant soft tissue volume and quality in achieving long-term functional stability and aesthetic outcomes
– Diagnostic protocols, prosthetically guided treatment planning, and indications for vertical soft tissue augmentation
– Surgical concepts, including flap design, tissue mobilization, graft selection (connective tissue grafts and substitutes), and strategies for vertical tissue gain
– Management of thin phenotypes, tension control, vascularization optimization, and complication prevention
– Clinical workflows integrating provisionalization, implant placement timing, and soft tissue conditioning.
