Full day ESCI workshop in cooperation the department for Dental Medicin at University of Zurich ZZM
3 live surgery`s, 3 theoretical and hands-on workshops

This full-day workshop offers a unique opportunity to get an overview of ceramic implantology and familiarize yourself with three different systems at the University of Zurich in cooperation with the ESCI. You will learn about the advantages and differences between the systems. You will learn how to apply them by yourself. You will watch experienced users during three live surgeries on the different systems.

This course is a outstanding opportunity for beginners to get to know the world of ceramic implantology and for experienced users to expand their skills!

Registration fee 180 CHF

Please note
This workshop has a attendee limitation of min. 20 and max. 40 participants!

WORKSHOP W2 13:30-18:00

The Zeramex Workshop
addresses selected issues in ceramic implantology in a specialized and in-depth way. “From practice for practice”: we would like to give you the opportunity to obtain comprehensive information from a competent source about current trends and challenges in ceramic implantology. At the Zeramex workshop, you will have the opportunity to discuss your own experiences, but also, in particular, specific treatment concepts based on case studies with colleagues. We see the target group of the event as including beginners as well as experienced users, referrers and anyone who wants to find out more about the application of two-part screw-retained ZERAMEX ceramic implants.

Please note:
The Zeramex workshop will take place at the headquarters of CeramTec Switzerland AG in Spreitenbach.
You will have the opportunity to personally visit the production site of your Zeramex implants.

Location:
CeramTec Switzerland AG
Bodenäckerstrasse 5
8957 Spreitenbach

around 30 min to congress venue

WORKSHOP W3 13:30-15:30

Ceralog Progressive Line and augmentive procedures
Today two-piece ceramic implants offer a similar procedure to what
we are used to with titanium implants. The implants can be inserted at an angle compared toone-piece implants, augmentative procedures can be carried out with the implantation and superstructures can be screwed onto two-piece implants. The two-piece systems are therefore desired and the subject of research.

This workshop provides information about new developments and the use of zirconia implants.
Facts, not ideologies, are discussed. The possibilities and limitations of two-part zirconia systems
and various augmentation techniques are shown. The surgical and prosthetic procedures are
demonstrated using clinical cases.

The workshop will include a hands-on training session.

WORKSHOP W4 13:30-15:30

Precision in practice: zirconia implant placement with Z-Systems (with Hands-on)
Z-Systems is offering an exclusive 2-hour workshop tailored for dental professionals who want to master the art of zirconia implant placement while understanding its benefits. In this hands-on session, dentists will gain practical experience with Z-Systems’ advanced zirconia dental implants, focusing on precision and technique. The workshop will cover the entire process—from proper implant placement to prosthetics considerations and helpful tips for working with a 100% zirconia two-piece implant system featuring unique screw-retained abutments. Elevate your skills and confidence in zirconia implants to enhance your practice and patient care.

WORKSHOP W5 16:00 – 18:00

Optimization of dental implants through ceramic surface modification
Ceramic has not to be white

WORKSHOP W6 16:00 -18:00

Update on augmentation techniques 4.0: Use of KEM and PRF in implantology
What do we use when for sinus floor elevation, lateral and horizontal augmentations, socket preservation, and GTR/GBR? Tips and tricks!

The workshop will include a hands-on part
