Despite the high predictability of treatments with titanium dental implants, long term success and aesthetic outcomes are a continuing challenge in cases of implants placed in areas with significant bone and soft tissue loss. This course will provide evidence-based and up to date treatment solutions for different clinical scenarios where implant placement and restoration is not straightforward. Utilising clinically orientated lectures, hand-on-workshops, live surgeries, videos and case based discussions, the participant will be provided with the necessary knowledge, as well as, technical advice/tips starting from initial treatment planning to the delivery of final implant restorations in advanced cases where the lack of hard and soft tissue creates a challenging clinical situation.

The significant emphasis on hands-on workshops for each day of the ITI week (for all taught topics) allows the participants to apply in practice all the theoretical aspects that are discussed during the week and have interactive discussions with the faculty members.
