A fantastic day at the Brooklands Hotel for the Evertis Advanced Full-Arch Implant Course 🚀

An inspiring and hands-on session focused on conventional and digital approaches to full-arch rehabilitation, led by the excellent Dr. Emanuele Clozza. From in-depth theory to practical application, the engagement and collaboration throughout the day made it truly special.

Great to connect with such a passionate group of clinicians, share knowledge, and push the boundaries of modern implant dentistry together.

Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the success of today’s course 👏

Looking forward to the next one!

Can patients who’ve had radiotherapy still have dental implants? The answer is yes—when done carefully and correctly.

This patient had previous radiotherapy for head & neck cancer and was understandably concerned about the safety of implant treatment.

🧠 The challenge: Irradiated bone has reduced healing capacity and higher risk of complications
🔍 Our approach: Thorough assessment, risk stratification, and detailed planning
📊 Key considerations: Radiation dose, timing since treatment, bone quality, and overall health
🦷 Treatment: Precise, atraumatic implant placement with meticulous technique
✅ Outcome: Safe integration and successful rehabilitation

With the right expertise, careful case selection, and meticulous surgical ex*****on, dental implants can be a predictable and life-changing option—even after radiotherapy.

Every case is unique, and safety always comes first.

This case highlights the successful removal of a skin cancer lesion from the cheek using meticulous surgical technique, followed by careful reconstruction to preserve both function and facial aesthetics.

🔍 Before: A suspicious lesion with concerning features requiring excision
✂️ Treatment: Complete surgical removal with appropriate margins.
🧵 After: Layered closure with attention to natural contours and minimal tension with well planned island pedicle flap.
Our goal is always the same: oncologic safety first, combined with the best possible cosmetic outcome.
Early detection saves lives—and often allows for simpler treatment with better results.

If you notice any changing, growing, or unusual skin lesions, don’t wait—get them evaluated.

Facial Skin Lesion Treatment – Before & After

This patient presented with multiple facial skin lesions, some of which had become raised, crusted, and progressively changing over time.

Following careful clinical assessment, the lesions were treated with a focus on both:
✔️ Complete removal of concerning areas
✔️ Achieving a good cosmetic outcome

The result shows significant improvement in skin texture and appearance.

🔍 Not all skin lesions are harmless — especially if they:
• Change in size or colour
• Become crusted or bleed
• Continue to grow

Early assessment and treatment can make a significant difference.

Straumann implant to restore missing lower molar✉️

15/02/2026

I get a lot of enquiries from colleagues on how to proceed with wisdom teeth extractions, common queries are, is CBCT needed ? is this a high risk extraction and do I need to raise a flap ? Here is a case I did yesterday in in London, this LL8 was causing recurrent pain and infections and causing decay to the LL7. Removal was agreed, as the root apices are clearly far from the ID nerve canal, this is low risk, this does not need a CBCT. As part of the crown was impacted against the LL7, partial crown cut was undertaken to free the tooth using a straight surgical handpiece, and because the OPT shows enough bone- free gaps around the tooth, the LL8 was easily elevated out flapless, 10 min procedure.

Dental implants treatment in radiated jaw, assessing and mitigating the risk of osteoradionecrosis ( ORN )

27/10/2025

If you have a wisdom tooth that is troubling you with either decay, recurrent pain, infection or is causing decay to the adjacent molar, this needs to be assessed clinically, with an x ray and possibly a CBCT scan , the treatment can be either complete extraction or something called coronectomy, which is removal of the crown part only and leaving the roots behind in the bone. If the wisdom tooth root ends are in close proximity to the nerve that runs in the mandibular canal in the jaw ( the ID nerve supply’s sensation to your lip ) the nerve is at risk.
The risks of the procedures are. a)Pain
b) Bleeding
c) Swelling
d) Trismus – inability to fully open the mouth for days/ weeks.
e) Infection
f) Nerve damage – numbness (loss of sensation) / partial numbness, altered/ painful sensation/
itching sensation and burning sensation to the lower lip & / or tongue (with extraction of
wisdom teeth), at the side of the lip or the tongue. if this was to happen, this is usually temporary and it tends to happen in 5% of cases, however, it can be permanent in 1% of cases of extractions. With coronectomy only the lingual nerve (the tongue nerve) is at risk with the possibility of causing the above at the side of the tongue.
g)Dry socket h)Damage to adjacent teeth i)Coronectomy other risks are short- and long-term pain, short- and long-term infection and needing to convert to surgical extraction either immediately intra operatively (if the roots became lose during the procedure) or at a later date.
