Are you ready to sharpen your skills in GTR and flap surgery to prevent complications and achieve more consistent results?

Join Dr. Ehab Moussa as he addresses the common challenges in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and flap surgeries, such as flap dehiscence, membrane exposure, and healing complications. This Virtual Clinic offers practical advice on flap design, closure techniques, membrane selection, and managing complications to help clinicians improve predictability and success in regenerative procedures.

Objectives:

• Identify key anatomical and surgical challenges when planning and executing flap-based regenerative procedures.
• Understand the causes and solutions for flap dehiscence, membrane exposure, and gingival recession.
• Learn proper flap design techniques to ensure tension-free closure and maintain blood supply.
• Explore material selection for membranes and grafts, including resorbable vs. non-resorbable options.
• Manage soft tissue complications, including inadequate keratinized tissue or flap necrosis.
• Gain post-operative protocols to support healing and minimize patient discomfort or infection.
• Review case studies to highlight resolution techniques for real-world complications in GTR and flap surgery.

Speaker: Dr. Ehab Moussa, DDS, MsD

Dr. Ehab Moussa obtained his Bachelor’s degree in dentistry from The Faculty of Dentistry, Alexandria University, Egypt in 2009. He then joined his father in a specialty practice focused on dental implant surgery. In 2012, Dr. Moussa entered the periodontics fellowship program at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) in Cleveland, Ohio, where he later earned a Master’s degree in periodontics. Recognizing the importance of prosthetic principles in surgical practice, he pursued a fellowship in dental implant prosthodontics at Louisiana State University in New Orleans.

Currently, Dr. Moussa practices full-time in New Orleans, Louisiana, where he limits his services to periodontics, implant surgery, and prosthetics. Passionate about education, he lectures nationally and internationally on a wide range of advanced clinical topics.
