3rd Urban International Hard and Soft Tissue Regeneration Symposium
We are happy to announce that following the great success of our first two events, we are organizing the 3rd Urban International Hard and Soft Tissue Regeneration Symposium in Budapest, Hungary, on 21–22t October 2022. The event takes place at the Budapest Congress Center.
The pandemic imposed a halt on traveling and conferences worldwide. Yet, with the conclusions drawn and the precautions we take, we are confident that we can organize our next event in the safest environment in Budapest. We all are craving for meeting each other and share fresh scientific knowledge we learned. Since 2017 we grew to a society, too and we would be pleased to welcome you again. In 2017 we had the honor to receive 560 participants from 45 countries, in 2019 the number of participants had increased to 600 arriving from 44 countries worldwide.
By attending this Symposium participants will have a unique opportunity to explore the most recent scientific findings in the field of hard and soft tissue regeneration and refine their attitude for solving problems. Our line-up of speakers represents an elite group of doctors and academics who will share their profound knowledge and experience, and address questions from the audience. We are convinced that they will, yet again provide the highest level of scientific content.
The event is a great opportunity to exchange views and best practices with dental professionals attending from all around the world. Participants will also have the opportunity to explore our exhibitors’ latest products and services. The Symposium will be held on 21–22 October 2022. On the days before and after the event, i.e., 20th and 23rd October, the participants will have the opportunity to participate in one or more of several high-end hands-on workshops providing a more in-depth experience to a limited number of attendees. The workshops in 2017, were attended by over 160, and in 2019 the number of participants at the workshops had reached 224 and were deemed a great success. We are convinced that this year they will be equally auspicious.

Is it possible to treat these defects technically and can biology reach up to the expected heights? What will be the outcome after loading?
What happens to the Sausage Technique TM cases after 15 years? What has been changed of the technique in the last decade?
This presentation will update the clinician about techniques that can treat these types of defects. New research related to these defects will be revealed.
Long-term clinical outcomes of vertical and horizontal augmentation will be presented.
Comitato scientifico

Dr. Istvan Urban DMD, MD, PhD

To reduce pain, invasiveness and side effects originating from the donor site at the hard palate, the search for soft tissue substitute materials has become an important field of research and enormous effort has been taken by scientists and clinicians to develop reliable alternatives. However, a solid body of evidence points out, that independent of the clinical indication and independent of the soft tissue substitute material investigated, epithelialized as well as subepithelial connective tissue grafts must be considered as the gold standard materials for oral soft tissue reconstruction to the present day.
Against this background, it must be expected, that more transparency and understanding for the predictably successful application of soft tissue autografts would substantially influence future research and further progress with regard to possible substitute materials will to some extent be dependent on whether or not some fundamental landmark questions can be answered like for instance: what is the true nature of the positive connective tissue graft effect in gingival recession therapy? does it make a difference for the patients, where and how soft tissue autografts are harvested at the hard palate? can varying tissue compositions possibly impact the clinical characteristics of different autografts with regard to re-vascularization, epithelial differentiation and volume stability?
The present presentation will not be able to answer all the aforementioned questions. By presenting available research data and associated clinical observations it can contribute though to a better understanding of the hurdles to take in search for biomaterials that aim to substitute the use of autologous soft tissue grafts in the near future.
Achieving optimal treatment results in diverse clinical situations requires proper knowledge of indications and surgical performance of different surgical treatment modalities. This lecture will cover different surgical peri–implantitis treatment concepts, including reconstructive, resective, and combined surgical therapies, and the decisive factors in determining which surgical technique is most appropriate in different peri-implantitis cases. Important aspects of soft-tissue management and rationale for soft-tissue volume grafting following surgical peri-implantitis treatment, as well as the prognostic factors associated with treatment outcomes will be further discussed.
