The purpose of the workshop is to teach the skills required to perform basic microsuturing techniques and to review principles of microsurgical soft tissue management in endodontics. Basic microsurgical knot-tying techniques designed to complement the armamentarium of endodontists interested in refining their surgical skills will be demonstrated. Instruction uses powerful graphics and live demonstrations to guide the participants through the technical intricacies of flap incisions and microsuturing. Topics covered will also include incision design, flap management, wound closure and tissue healing patterns. Emphasis will be placed on approaches to reducing scar formation and optimizing aesthetic outcomes using microsurgical and microsuturing principles.

Learning Objectives:

Develop proficiency in basic endodontic microsuturing techniques.
Develop proficiency in optimal incision design and flap management in endodontics.
Identify strategies aimed at reducing scar formation and optimizing wound closure.
