Topics will include cementless restorations, peri-implant disease and bioengineering.

--The preconference program will feature three hands-on sessions covering soft- and hard-tissue grafting and digital scanner use and sessions on augmenting the narrow ridge, preventing bone-grafting complications and managing soft- and hard-tissue defects.
