Evidence-Based Alternatives to Autogenous Tissue: Outcomes, Attachment, and Stability

Our goal in soft tissue reconstruction is to maximize clinical outcomes while reducing morbidity. New devices are being introduced that may be able to achieve these goals. This program will explore autogenous tissue alternatives along with evidence-based decision trees on when alternatives should be considered and how to improve outcomes.

Upon completion of this presentation, participants should be able to:

• Explain the objectives of soft tissue augmentation
• Compare various techniques and how they differ from the gold standard • Discuss the advantages of alternative therapy
