Oral Surgery Course in Atrophic Jaws with Zygomatic Implants

Oral Surgery Course in Atrophic Jaws with Zygomatic Implants   Oral Surgery Course,  Advanced Implantology in Atrophic Jaws with Zygomatic Implants,  Dental Academy – Bulgaria   On the 16th and 17th of May I was in Bulgaria, more specifically in the historic and atmospheric city of Sofia, at the invitation of the Dental Academy – Bulgaria to give a conference as part of an Atrophic Jaws course. I spoke about the concept of immediate loading, with the possibility of immediate implants and placing fixed teeth in patients within a few hours and also using Zygomatic Implant surgery, topics that I have dedicated myself to throughout my career, in your surgical practice, research and product development.   It was with great pleasure that I met new colleagues, saw some long-time Bulgarian friends and old acquaintances from other conferences and courses.    New future projects to be implemented were discussed, involving greater and closer collaboration in both training and patient treatment.   And of course, I cannot fail to mention the excellent hospitality and gastronomy that I was treated to during my short visit to Sofia.

I.T.I. – World Symposium 2024

  I.T.I. – International Team for Implantology  World Symposium 2024, Singapure May 9-11   It was with great pleasure that I accepted Straumann Portugal’s invitation to travel to Singapore, literally to the other side of the world, to attend the Straumann World Congress.   It was an intense 3 days, with several hours of conferences, workshops, exchange of ideas, experiences and knowledge with colleagues, literally from all over the world, with around 5700 participants.   At the congress fair I contacted in a direct and very personalized way with the most recent and advanced technology that we have today and will have at our disposal as clinicians and surgeons to apply safely and efficiently to our patients. One of the main themes at the World Congress was the increasingly present Artificial Intelligence in the context of Medicine and Oral Surgery.   It will no longer just be in the future, it is already with us in the present.   I am currently working together with the Company Straumann Portugal and the Lusíadas Knowledge Center on the development of Advanced Implantology courses for Portugal.   I will have news soon!!!
