About Course

Transitioning from routine restorative work to minor oral surgery is often where clinical anxiety peaks for early-career clinicians. This compact, high-impact course breaks down surgical extraction protocols into predictable, repeatable micro-steps. Learn the mental models, anatomical landmarks, flap design principles, and tension-free suturing techniques essential for calm, ethical, and biologically sound surgical practice.

What Will You Learn?

  • Systematically analyze pre-operative radiographs and CBCT scans for root morphology and nerve proximity risks.
  • Plan and execute clean, full-thickness mucoperiosteal flaps without tearing or compromised blood supply.
  • Apply gentle luxation and sectioning mechanics to preserve alveolar bone.
  • Master primary intention closure using tension-free periosteal releasing techniques.
  • Calmly troubleshoot unexpected bleeding, root tip fractures, and intra-operative complications.
