Hi,

A routine extraction can become complicated in seconds. A porcelain restoration that appeared well planned may still result in an unexpected outcome.

In both situations, recognising the complication and determining the appropriate clinical response can present challenging decisions.

This November, at the Advanced Dentistry Institute we’re inviting you to two clinical webinars led by our founder, Dr Yohan Thomas, specialist prosthodontist, alongside experienced guest clinicians to examine these challenges.

When Routine Surgical Extractions Go Wrong
Wednesday, 11 November 2026
7pm AEDT, 6.30pm ACDT

Dr Thomas will be joined by Prof. Dr. Kathiravan Selvarasu, an experienced Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, to discuss the complications that can arise during surgical extractions.

From fractured roots and unexpected bleeding to sinus communication, the discussion will address early recognition, complication management and the clinical considerations involved in deciding when to continue treatment or refer.

Preventable Porcelain Pitfalls, Recognising Risk and Managing Complications
Wednesday, 18 November 2026
7pm AEDT, 6.30pm ACDT

Led by Dr Zanelle Harris, Lead Dentist at Dental Boutique Adelaide, the discussion will focus on patient selection, identifying potential risks before treatment and understanding the factors contributing to porcelain fractures, aesthetic concerns and occlusal complications, including the management of outcomes that do not meet expectations.

Join us for one or both!

We look forward to seeing you there.

Kind regards,

Dr Yohan Thomas and the ADI Team
