BTI Study Club | Southampton [July]

This course provides a practical overview of short dental implants as an alternative to conventional-length implants in modern implant dentistry. Participants will explore the clinical protocols for their appropriate use, their performance in daily practice, the situations in which they represent a viable treatment option, and the key clinical factors that influence their predictability and long-term success.

The session will also address strategies to optimise the use of short implants, including case selection, prosthetic planning, biomechanical considerations, and surgical execution. A structured, step-by-step clinical guide will support participants in integrating short implants safely, predictably, and effectively into daily practice.
