What is the
Autologous course?
The autologous course is aimed at dentists and stomatologists who wish to learn the technique of bone regeneration using autologous bone plates.
This technique, original by Prof. Khoury, advocates the collection of a bone block from the retromolar area, which is stabilized using osteosynthesis screws after being manipulated.
Dr. Pedro Moura will teach the entire course.
At selected moments he will have the support of his team, whether in lectures, hands-on, or surgeries.

Frequently
asked questions
The investment for the course is €3500. We are exempt from VAT.
Yes, on the second-day dinner is on us. It’s a good opportunity for people to get to know each other, and do some networking.
For the guide design hands-on, you must bring a personal computer. The faster the better and don’t forget to bring a mouse.
For the remaining hands-on, you don’t need anything.
We typically select cases with horizontal atrophy. Exceptionally, cases of vertical augmentation may be performed. Cases are randomly assigned. There are usually no significant differences between cases.
Students work in binomial so each student will do a case, but will have the opportunity to attend another surgery.
All our patients pay for the surgery in advance and with that we minimize no-shows.
There are, however, situations that we cannot avoid. We maintain a database of patients who are available to fill a vacancy if a patient is missing. In the event that it is impossible to replace the missing patient, a date for a new surgery will have to be rescheduled.
Foreign students or students who live outside the country have priority in the distribution of cases, since logistically it is much more difficult to reschedule surgeries with those who do not live in the country.
Thank you for understanding.
