What You will Learn

This minicourse is designed to equip dentists with the essential knowledge and hands-on skills necessary for precise and effective suturing in implant and oral surgery. Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the armamentarium required for proper suturing, including instrument selection, handling, and maintenance.
The course will cover the various types of suturing materials, their characteristics, and their appropriate clinical applications. By understanding the properties of absorbable and non-absorbable sutures, as well as the impact of needle design and suture size, doctors will be able to make informed decisions to optimize wound healing and surgical success.
A structured approach to suturing theory will be introduced, guiding clinicians through the decision-making process for achieving tension-free, secure, and esthetic surgical closures in dental implant cases. From flap design considerations to advanced closure techniques, this course will help dentists approach every case with confidence.
High-quality technique videos will demonstrate a range of suturing methods, from basic interrupted and continuous sutures to more advanced closure techniques for managing complex cases. By the end of this minicourse, participants will be equipped with the skills to enhance healing, improve patient comfort, and achieve predictable surgical outcomes.

What Dentists Are Saying

I’ve taken a lot of CE over the years, but nothing as smooth and high-quality as this. These are real experts teaching practical techniques I used in my practice the same week. No fluff, just the exact info I needed. The platform is clean, easy to navigate, and way more convenient than traveling to a weekend seminar.

Virtual Dental Mastery has completely changed how I approach CE. The implant course was insanely detailed, yet easy to follow. I loved being able to pause, rewind, and take notes on my own time. The CE certificate was instant, and I added it to my license renewal file right away. I’ll definitely be back for more.
