KARACHI: Irfans Dental Academy (IDA) successfully hosted the second session of a one-day hands-on workshop titled "Advanced Oral Surgery Techniques (Level-II)," building upon the initial session held in June 2023.
The workshop, with a primary objective of providing the participants with comprehensive insights into crucial oral surgery procedures, was led by Dr Daud Sultan, a distinguished oral & maxillofacial surgeon and implantologist, who currently serves as an assistant professor at DIKIOHS.
The event was an engaging combination of informative lectures and interactive hands-on sessions. A diverse group of participants representing various dental institutions and private clinics from the city, who took part in the workshop, commended Dr Daud's expertise and unwavering commitment to education.
The workshop focused on topics such as delicate soft tissue manipulation, strategic flap designs, proficient suturing methods, socket preservation, precise surgical extractions, and both labial and lingual frenectomies. The practical exercises provided participants with hands-on experience, as they individually performed procedures on goat mandibles.
Upon conclusion, the participants were presented with certificates of attendance as a testament to their active engagement. Dr Daud was honoured with an appreciation shield, presented by Dr Umer Bin Irfan, CEO of IDA, and Dr Adil Bin Irfan, MD of the academy, in recognition of his exceptional contribution.
