Led by Dr. Lorenzo Tavelli, periodontist, scientist, international speaker, and co-developer of the Tunneled Coronally Advanced Flap (TCAF), the course combines evidence-based surgical principles with real-life clinical decision-making to simulate common and challenging cases, allowing participants to acquire practical skills and treatment planning strategies directly applicable to daily practice. By the end of the course, participants will have gained the confidence needed to perform soft tissue grafts, identify risk factors, prevent complications, and apply contemporary surgical concepts with a high level of predictability and aesthetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Biography<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lorenzo Tavelli, DDS, MS, PhD, is a periodontist, clinical researcher, and Assistant Professor at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. A graduate of the University of Milan, he went on to complete a three-year residency in periodontology and earn a Master of Science degree at the University of Michigan. A Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology, Dr. Tavelli has also served as Director of the Postgraduate Periodontology Program at Harvard School of Dental Medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His clinical and research work focuses primarily on microsurgical and minimally invasive soft tissue grafting procedures around teeth and dental implants. He pioneered the combined use of high-frequency Doppler ultrasound and healing biomarkers to assess graft perfusion and improve surgical outcomes. Dr. Tavelli regularly speaks at major international symposiums and has published more than 150 scientific articles in peer-reviewed journals. He currently serves as Associate Editor of the journal Clinical Implant Dentistry and Related Research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Tavelli&#8217;s contributions to the field have been recognized with numerous prestigious research awards, including the 2024 ITI Andr\u00e9 Schroeder Research Prize, the 2023 American Academy of Periodontology Earl Robinson Regeneration Award, the 2022 AAP Foundation Nevins Clinical Research Fellowship, the 2021 Italian Society of Periodontology Goldman Clinical Research Award, and the 2020 AAP Balint Orban Research Award, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Learn more<\/summary>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Lorenzo Tavelli, together with Dr. Shayan Barootchi, is the inventor of the Tunneled Coronally Advanced Flap (TCAF), the novel soft tissue flap approach and treatment philosophy that is being worldwide utilized for the management of soft tissue deformities around teeth and implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This course focuses on real-life common clinical situations and how soft tissue grafting and its manipulation can improve outcomes and solve clinical problems, following a problem-focused approach. It provides scientific background, theoretical explanations, lectures, cases and surgical videos to explore the management of soft tissues around teeth and implants, based on predictable and novel surgical techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Participants will learn:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The basics and fundamentals of soft tissue grafting around teeth and implants, and differences in the features of the soft tissues and their relevance to clinical dentistry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To modify and augment soft tissue for health purposes around teeth and implants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To perform moderate and advanced soft tissue grafting in cases of gingival recessions using conventional and novel tunnel approaches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Soft tissue palatal harvesting techniques, and key factors to consider when harvesting from the palate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How to distinguish cases with good, moderate, and poor prognosis for each treatment, based on local and systemic factors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How to prevent complications and adverse events in soft tissue grafting, and how to manage common complications as they arise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How to treatment plan soft tissue cases in the clinical setting and daily private practice, and the communication with patients<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Crucial post-operative concerns and considerations after a soft tissue grafting procedure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How to avoid implant failures and long-term adverse implant esthetic outcomes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Management of implant esthetic failures with soft tissue grafting protocols<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"#\">Register<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"#\">Discover La Fondation hotel<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#2b1a63\">Previous editions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#2b1a63\">Ramon Gomez-Meda (Spain) \u2014 June 26-27, 2025<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The ultimate Perio-Prostho course:<\/strong> From single implant to FP-1 rehabilitation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Immediate implants and immediate loading combined with soft tissue grafting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aesthetic and prosthetic considerations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Analog and digital workflows<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Socket preservation and reconstruction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Immediate implant placement and loading<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Management of provisionals, emergence profile, and pontic site development<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The failing dentition: from FP1 to hybrid prosthesis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choice of abutments and materials<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We were all very happy, proud, and motivated during these two days when we welcomed Dr. Ramon Gomez-Meda.
