Mastering Ridge Preservation, Improving Patient Outcomes

The inevitable consequence of tooth extraction is resorption and remodelling of the alveolar ridge. The decrease in ridge dimensions can make subsequent management (i.e., implants, bridges, or dentures) more challenging for both clinician and patient. Clinical research and experience suggest that early surgical intervention with appropriate biomaterials can help minimise the extent of this early bone loss. This intervention, called Ridge Preservation, involves the placement of biomaterials into the extraction socket with the view of compensating for the loss of bone and providing a scaffold for new bone formation.

This workshop will review the evidence for alveolar ridge preservation procedures and describe the surgical techniques involved. Hands-on exercises on dedicated simulation models will allow clinicians to practice these techniques under the expert supervision of Dr Eugene Sheftel. The knowledge and skills gained can be immediately incorporated into your everyday clinical practice.

Workshop includes:

  • Ridge Preservation – Scientific evidence and surgical principles
  • Options for managing partially edentulous sites – Pre-extraction and post-extraction considerations
  • Role of Biomaterials in Ridge Preservation – Properties and application
  • Hands-on exercises:
    > Use of models designed to simulate practical ridge preservation procedures
    > Correct application of appropriate biomaterials for bone regeneration
    > Suturing techniques

Dr Eugene Sheftel

Dr Sheftel was born in USSR and moved to Israel where he  completed his undergraduate dental degree in 2007. He worked in a general dental setting and applied to a periodontal residency at the University of  Otago New Zealand which he completed in 2017. He has worked as a periodontist in Melbourne since 2018, taking over Moonee Ponds Periodontics and Implant Centre in 2022. 

Dr Sheftel is a current President of Australian Society of Periodontics and is a member of Australian Dental Association CPD committee. He participates in the research in the field with ANZAP study groups.
