Mucogingival Surgery

Microsurgical Approach to Soft Tissue Management
October 1 to 3, 2026

A training program designed for dentists seeking clinical excellence and professional growth

Overview

This intensive three-day course, held from October 1st to 3rd, 2026, at the Jacobo Somoza Institute, is specifically designed for dentists seeking to achieve clinical excellence in the field of mucogingival surgery. Through an approach that seamlessly combines theoretical rigor with direct clinical application, participants will dive deep into the most advanced surgical techniques for soft tissue management.

The program covers everything from fundamental anatomical principles to highly aesthetic and functional procedures such as tunneling, Coronal Advanced Flap (CAF), free gingival grafts, and crown lengthening. Guided by experts like Dr. Rodrigo Cavaco, Dr. Tiago Silva, and Dr. João Desport, you will master the diagnosis, planning, and precise execution of each technique, including the prevention and management of complications. Special emphasis will be placed on the integration of the clinical microscope, enabling participants to master periodontal microsurgery and specific instrumentation to achieve pinpoint precision and optimal healing.

To ensure a comprehensive learning experience that can be immediately applied in your daily practice, the training culminates in hands-on sessions using pig jaws and realistic anatomical models. This is your opportunity to refine your surgical skills, increase the predictability of your treatments, and offer exceptional results to your patients.
