IP3: Innovations in Periodontics Session 3 10:45 a.m.–12:15 p.m.


Program Track: Treatment of Inflammatory Periodontal Disease


Moderator: D. Ryan Clagett Speakers:


Andreas Parashis – Is Non-Surgical Therapy of Peri-Implantitis Effective?


Marco Argento – Can Deep Pockets and Recessions Be Treated by Flapless Way?


Pooria Fallah Abed – Novel Minimally Invasive Periosteal Stretch Technique for Coronal Flap Advancement Passive Primary Closure


This session will address innovations and advances in clinical periodontics, basic science, or related subjects. Each speaker will give a 15-minute presentation on a specific topic, followed by a five-minute question-and-answer period. Speakers are selected by a blind review of abstracts submitted to the Academy.


Educational Objectives:


• Gain knowledge of innovations and advances in clinical periodontics, basic science, or related subjects.


• Learn a new concept, technique, or product use to take back your practice.


FCE7: Tissue Engineering for Regeneration


10:45 a.m.–12:15 p.m. Program Track: Imaging and Emerging Technologies Moderator: Purnima Kumar


Speakers: Sahar Ansari and Alireza Moshaverinia


The ultimate goal of bone tissue engineering is the regeneration of a construct that matches the physical and biological properties of the natural bone tissue. Repair and regeneration of craniofacial bone defects has widely been achieved with bone grafting procedures. However, there are several disadvantages associated with this treatment modality. An advantageous, alternative therapeutic option is bone regeneration using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). MSCs derived from orofacial tissues are attractive postnatal stem cells with self-renewal and multilineage differentiation capacity providing superior osteogenic properties. Furthermore, the neural crest origin of these MSCs makes them a better source for jawbone regeneration. In this


52 | American Academy of Periodontology 103rd Annual Meeting


session, alternative bone regenerative properties based on concepts of tissue engineering using stem cells and growth factors will be discussed.


Educational Objectives:


• Review the current treatment modality of craniofacial bone tissue regeneration.


• Discuss the potential disadvantages and limitation of bone grafting procedures.


• Discuss the latest developments in periodontal tissue regeneration and bone tissue engineering, using smart biomaterials and growth factors.


• Introduce novel treatment modalities for bone regenerative treatments based on stem cell therapy and tissue engineering concepts as futuristic therapies for patients.


FCE8: Vertical Ridge Augmentation with Complication Management


10:45 a.m.–12:15 p.m. Program Track: Implants Moderator: Bradley Weinstein Speaker: Istvan Urban


Vertical and horizontal augmentation present one of the greatest challenges of bone regeneration in implant dentistry. This is primarily due to the difficulty of the surgical procedure and its potential complications. Patient selection, patient preparation for surgery, precise surgical techniques, and postoperative management are the key factors in reducing the rate of bone graft complications.


An important factor is flap closure during bone augmentation. The key to achieving wound closure is not only the clinician’s ability in obtaining tension free release flap, but also good soft tissue quality and quantity. In an attempt to achieve wound closure and hence graft stability, the buccal mucosa is often broadly released, and this often results in a severe coronal translocation of the mucogingival line and loss of vestibule and keratinized mucosa (KM). The diagnosis and management of different complications will be discussed throughout this presentation.


Educational Objectives: • Review the surgical anatomy of the floor of the mouth. • Learn the surgical principles of ridge augmentation surgery.


• Become familiar with the surgical principles of the reconstruction of the vestibule and keratinized tissue after ridge augmentation.


• Explain the diagnosis and management of bone graft complications.
