Enhance Your Implant Skills: EthOss Socket Preservation and GBR Course
Mastering Socket Preservation and GBR with EthOss

Swallow is hosting an advanced hands-on course on Saturday, 19 July 2025, at ManDec in Manchester, focusing on socket preservation and guided bone regeneration (GBR) using EthOss.

This course is designed for dental professionals aiming to refine their skills in managing extraction sites and ridge defects.

Expert-Led Instruction

The course will be led by the highly respected Dr Karim Rachidi, an experienced implantologist and international speaker known for his expertise in minimally invasive implant techniques and advanced bone grafting procedures.

Dr Rachidi will guide participants through the biological principles behind socket preservation and GBR, emphasising the clinical benefits of EthOss.

Course Content and Hands-On Experience

Participants will benefit from a robust, clinically relevant curriculum combining theory with real-world surgical application. Learning objectives include:

  • Developing confidence in managing common clinical scenarios such as immediate implants, alveolar ridge defects, and socket preservation.

  • Identifying clinical indications for using EthOss® during extractions and implant procedures.

  • Learning the full surgical protocol for predictable graft placement using EthOss®.

  • Recognising the clinical advantages of EthOss® over traditional grafting materials, including its membrane-free protocol.

  • Reviewing documented clinical cases and supporting evidence that demonstrate the material’s performance in various implant settings.

Why EthOss?
