patient extraction
courses.

Extraction Academy)
Mini Residency Program can help
clinicians take skills to next level
By Extraction Academy Staff
U
nder the guidance and mentorship of the Extraction Academy faculty, dentists from
around the world can participate in a hands-on, live patient extraction
course. The faculty includes a dentist/
pharmacologist, a periodontists, two oral
surgeons and three general practitioners.
During the two-day live surgical sessions
(next on Sept. 12-13 in Los Angeles, 26 C.E.
series), doctors can take their clinical and
surgical skills to the next level.
Attendees will be provided with access
to the Extraction Academy’s online library for the didactic portion of the series
(10 C.E.), which they can review at their
own convenience, prior or after the live
surgical sessions.
The live surgical sessions are uniquely
designed to include brief morning lectures and discuss different approaches to
successful exodontia procedures, prior to
prescreened surgical cases, each day.
The comprehensive program will include clinical preparation, overview of
head and neck anatomy, pharmacology,
medical emergencies, informed consent
policies and protocols, risk management,
suturing techniques, management of
complications and postoperative care.
The late morning and afternoon interactive sessions are supplemented by
doctors assisting in shoulder-to-shoulder
surgeries and video demonstrations. The
faculty and presenters will engage with
questions, clinical cases and input from
the audience, throughout each day.
The course is designed to teach minimally traumatic tooth extractions, focusing on alveolar ridge preservation, whenever and wherever possible. Participants
will learn everything from single-, multiple-, full-mouth to impacted teeth extractions. The presenters will touch upon
IV sedation, guided-bone regeneration
(GBR) and tips and tricks. Students and
faculty will also perform advanced procedures such as root tip extractions, wisdom
teeth, calcified teeth, sinus precautions or
involvement, infected teeth and exposing
teeth for orthodontic treatment.
The program will include concierge service and hotel accommodations for distant travelers, visa application invitations
for international doctors, breakfast, lunch
and a group dinner. All instruments and
materials will be provided. California licensure is not required. Any dentist with
a desire to increase his or her knowledge
in oral surgery is welcome. Students with
a California license can perform surgeries
with the instructors.
The Extraction Academy specializes in
continuing education workshops and lectures for general dentists, periodontists,
oral implantologists, oral surgeons and
endodontists as a multidisciplinary approach. Extraction Academy courses are
designed around practical hands-on lectures. Courses start with extraction basics
and progress to advanced techniques. The
learnings will allows attendees to go back
to their office and immediately implement the techniques.

Sterngold’s new Stern SNAP Angled
Overdenture Implant Abutment
System approved by the FDA
By Sterngold Dental Staff
S
terngold Dental is pleased to announce it has received FDA market clearance for the new Stern
SNAP Angled Overdenture Implant Abutment System.
The new Stern SNAP Angled Overdenture Implant Abutments will work with
many popular implant systems, according to the company. Its innovative twopiece design allows the SNAP Angled to
perform True Angle Correction of up to
20 degrees on divergent implants, without the need to rely on a hinging attachment. The SNAP is also available in a
straight version for implants within 10
degrees of parallel.
The system features a new maximum
durability cap (available at 1, 2 and 3
pounds) that does not require a housing,
making for a low profile of only 2.5 mm
and requiring less space in the denture.
The Stern SNAP is an innovative, predictable and economical solution for stabilizing patients’ dentures, the company
asserts.
