Dr Boota Ubhi proudly presents the Soft Tissue Around Dental Implants Course, delivered through BPI Dental Education & Training. This exceptional course explores the latest techniques to provide optimal soft tissues around dental implants for long-term success.
Delegates can learn how to improve and maintain aesthetics and longevity, as well as how to rectify soft tissue problems post-treatment. Dr Alan Burgin, who recently completed the course, comments on his experience of the Soft Tissue Around Dental Implants Course:
What were your main motivations for taking the course?
I’ve been doing dental implants for a couple of years now, and a lot of the teaching focused in this area was regarding building bone and trying to get the implant in the right position. I hadn’t really received much teaching on the soft tissue surgery side of things.
I wanted to try and improve how I managed the soft tissue around the implants that I was placing, as well as learning how to safely collect grafts and improve the aesthetics around the implants.
How did you find the content of the course, in terms of the topics techniques and information provided?
The way everything was taught was very good, I thoroughly enjoyed it – I thought the content was pitched at a perfect level for me. It was challenging enough that everything was new but at the same time I could grasp it all quite easily.
What topic and/or techniques did you find most beneficial to you?
I would say the graft harvesting technique was most beneficial to me. Quite a few of the other techniques I knew about and have done before, but in terms of actually collecting the graft from the palate – I knew how to do it but didn’t know how to do it safely. So that had held me back from actually carrying it out in practice.
How did you find the hands-on aspect of the course?
The hands-on aspect was great. All the instruments provided were top quality and the small groups meant that it was really easy to ask Boota questions. The pig heads provided were excellent; we had a new one each day, so there were plenty of opportunities to practice the techniques we were learning.
How did you find working with Dr Ubhi?
Dr Ubhi’s teaching was brilliant – you could tell he had incredible experience but at the same time was very approachable and friendly, making it easy to ask questions.
How has the course impacted your work?
The course has definitely impacted my work. It has given me more confidence in the soft tissues surgeries I’m currently doing. The programme is absolutely good value for money.
Would you recommend the course to other dentists?
Yes absolutely – I have already recommended the course to others, and I’m looking forward to my next course with Boota!
