Achieving superior outcomes in periodontal and peri-implant treatment

This webinar will provide clinicians with an updated, evidence-based framework for diagnosing and classifying periodontal and peri-implant diseases.

Attendees will develop clinical decision-making in selecting and sequencing treatment – from cause-related therapy and non-surgical intervention through to surgical and regenerative approaches – for both periodontal and peri-implant conditions.

The session will explore the influence of systemic health, modifiable risk factors and the bidirectional relationship between periodontitis and conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease on treatment planning and outcomes

It will also promote excellence in long-term patient management through risk-stratified supportive periodontal therapy, individualised maintenance programmes and clear prognosis communication

Attending the session will help dental professionals strengthen their confidence in recognising the limits of primary care management and making timely, appropriate referrals to specialist periodontal or implant dentistry services.

Learning outcomes

• Understand the biological mechanisms underpinning periodontal and peri-implant disease progression, and how early identification of pathological change can prevent irreversible tissue loss and implant failure
• Build practical confidence in treatment sequencing – knowing when to escalate, when to reassess and how to select the right intervention for the right patient at the right time.
• Recognise how patient lifestyle, medical history and systemic conditions interact with periodontal and peri-implant health, and translate this into smarter, more personalised clinical decisions
• Leave with actionable strategies for improving everyday practice – from more meaningful maintenance appointments and patient conversations through to clearer referral pathways and better long-term outcomes.
