Lecture Title: New insights in periodontal microbiology: from pathogenic to dysbiotic.
Abstract: The evolution of concepts on periodontal microbiology have changed with the evolution of microbiological methods over time. The advent of molecular technologies to the analysis of the periodontal microbiome is leading to an expanded repertoire of putative periodontal pathogens and the use of next-generation sequencing has enabled the identification of multiple non-cultivable microorganisms whose significance still needs to be elucidated. Similarly, the study of microbial communities as biofilms has facilitated the understanding of the defence and pathogenic mechanisms of the oral microbiome and its interaction with the host defences. In this presentation, the new concepts of symbiosis and dysbiosis as key mechanisms in health and periodontal disease will be discussed, as well as the role of the so-called keystone pathogens. Lecture Title: Immediate Implants. From myth to reality Abstract This surgical protocol has gained important attention in implant dentistry due to its clear advantages in terms of patient鈥檚 preference and possible enhanced tissue reconstructive and aesthetic results. Until recently, however, we did not count with the scientific evidence of the biological behaviour of dental implants inserted in fresh extractions sockets, as well as their impact in the alveoli bony walls. In this presentation we shall review the experimental and clinical data demonstrating the efficacy and the limits of this surgical protocol, what will enable us to discuss its clinical indications, as well as its main limitation.
