Gamborena Masterclass
Connect immediate implant placement, soft-tissue support and restorative design in the esthetic zone.
With Dr. Iñaki Gamborena
Course information
Plan the implant and the tissues as one restoration.
Gamborena Masterclass examines immediate implant placement in fresh extraction sockets through a combined surgical and restorative approach. The focus is on preserving existing tissues, understanding connective-tissue grafting and planning the emergence of the final restoration.
Follow an eight-step protocol, digital planning with DTX Studio and SmartFusion, and recorded clinical cases. Then explore alternatives for type 2 and type 3 sockets, adjacent implants and the all-at-once concept.
The DentalEDX edition includes 15 recorded lessons. It is designed for clinicians with a foundation in implant treatment who want to examine the details of anterior implant esthetics; it does not include live discussion sessions or supervised surgical training.

Who this course is for
For clinicians coordinating surgery and implant esthetics.
Develop the connection between socket anatomy, soft-tissue volume and the provisional and definitive restoration.
Restorative dentists and prosthodontists
Relate provisional contours and abutment design to soft-tissue support and esthetics.
Periodontal-restorative teams
Coordinate graft selection, treatment timing and the surgical-restorative sequence.
Surgical-restorative integration
Create space for the tissue. Plan support for the restoration.
Implant esthetics depend on the relationship between placement, tissue volume and restorative contour.
The masterclass brings connective-tissue grafting and provisional design into the same discussion as implant positioning. Rather than viewing surgery and prosthetics as separate appointments, examine how each stage sets conditions for the next.
“
Evaluate the tissue and restorative requirements together, before selecting the implant approach.
What you’ll learn
From the extraction socket to the emergence profile.
01
Tissue-preserving philosophy
Examine the rationale for preserving existing anatomy during immediate implant treatment.
02
Connective-tissue grafting
Understand the role of tissue augmentation in the esthetic treatment plan.
03
Digital planning
Follow implant planning and execution with DTX Studio and SmartFusion.
04
The eight-step protocol
Connect surgical and restorative stages through a structured sequence and case presentation.
05
Socket-specific alternatives
Compare approaches to type 2 and type 3 sockets, including the multilayer technique.
06
Long-term esthetic review
Study adjacent implants and the all-at-once concept through case-based teaching.
A protocol with alternatives
One sequence does not mean one solution for every socket.
After the eight-step protocol and its clinical application, the curriculum turns to more demanding socket conditions. Compare type 2 and type 3 treatment alternatives, multilayer reconstruction and longer-term observations around adjacent implants.
- Immediate placement in fresh sockets
- Connective-tissue support
