Steigmann Module 1: Soft Tissue Management for Bone Augmentation

Marius Steigmann teaches this independently bookable module within the Steigmann Institute’s soft-tissue management programme. The focus is adapting implant treatment to local anatomy and the soft-tissue conditions of each patient.

Programme

• Assess thin and thick tissue phenotypes and adapt handling for the planned augmentation volume.
• Develop flap mobility and elasticity for tension-free closure.
• Compare suturing with and against tension, and methods to improve tissue thickness and keratinised tissue.
• Plan soft-tissue handling during sinus elevation and maxillary augmentation with a palatal sliding flap.
• Consider mandibular augmentation using PPF, VBF and Steipod approaches.

The programme explains the closure sequence and location-specific adaptation. Ask which practical exercises form part of your chosen local intake.
