Managing Surgical Complications
When things go wrong — and they will. How to recognize, manage, and learn from the complications every surgeon eventually faces.
Every surgeon encounters complications. The difference is in how you handle them. This advanced course walks through the most common and serious complications in periodontal and implant surgery — membrane perforation, graft failure, wound dehiscence, implant malposition, and peri-implantitis. Dr. Fien shares his own complications openly, with the reasoning behind each salvage or revision decision.
