Overview

About this course

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.

Day one: anatomy and planning

Review the anatomical constraints of vertical augmentation, grafting materials and tissue thickness. Consider buccal and lingual flap handling for different graft volumes, posterior maxillary reconstruction and incision design in the aesthetic zone. Suturing choices are related to the site and the planned augmentation.

Day two: flap and closure sequence

Work through mandibular incision design, buccal and lingual flap management, tension and repositioning sutures, and anterior maxillary flap preparation and closure. Confirm the practical model format for the local intake.
